They are in much trepidation as they know that the crocodiles and the raging flooded river as some of the things that will cause them casualties. The wildebeests will wait on the banks bleating in fear and none wants to make the jump. The arriving animals in the rear keep on pilling pressure on the front runners. Finally the pressure is too much for the animals on the front and one of the wildebeest takes the leap of faith into the water. What follows is a scene from a riot, all of the wildebeests are suddenly in a rush to get across and they jump 5 feet high and fall into the river with a splash which sounds like a million gallon water fall. Nonetheless, more than 2,500 lose their lives here from drowning, broken limbs and crocodile attacks.
