Interesting monitor vid

Exactly. And the problem with these kooks and their videos is people see them and try to duplicate it, and it doesn't work 99% of the time. You can't "break" a monitor like a wild horse, either the monitor dies from stress or grows into a scared adult, and in my experience the fearful monitor is the one to worry about most of the time.

A monitor that fears you is the monitor that is going to bite you. Defensive monitors will huff and puff and tailwhip, but most of the time will not offer to bite, due to the fact that most owners can tell those are "get away from me cues" no these yahoos drowning their animals to tame them or force taming them are in for a surprise, death by stress or a monitor inflicting a serious wound.

I suspect that's the problem with all the Niles, they don't seem to ever lose the fear

It tough for them since they come from a land of giants that fear instilled in them.

That's so true. They've got quite a lot of predators that would like to make a meal out of them.

That shot of the little kid feeding the monitor mouth-to-mouth is rather scary. Oh man, I've gotta show my GF that one with the lizards in the bed lol.

The only monitor "Taming" involving a bathtub that I condone is sitting in the bathtub(with no water ofcourse) and letting the monitor crawl about getting used to your presence in a save environment.

That bite will be well deserved
