This thread was referred to in Rumours & News 2 days ago.
It has been claimed that a recent crash in the DRC was caused by a live juvenile crocodile escaping from a passenger's luggage and panicing the SLF into all rushing forward during approach.

The claim may or may not have a grain of truth but :

You know you are in Africa when the passengers smuggle dangerous wild animals in their hand luggage in the hope of selling to the illegal pet trade.
