Yes, Bindy Sue is the little girl’s name. Bindy is apparently the name of a favorite crocodile at their park, and Sue came from the dog. This is a kid that better like animals, or she’ll hate her folks.
I agree that some things are staged, but only to get them on film. I get the impression that Steve does a lot of stuff that the camera people can’t keep up with the first time, so they’ll ‘replay’ it. The best example of this that comes to mind is when they were looking for rattlesnakes that fall into a water flume in the hills above San Diego. Terri just wasn’t quite believable when she ‘spotted’ a snake floating down, and they had footage of the snake falling in. (If the cameraman was watching it at that point, why did Terri need to point it out?) But the footage of Steve running after and saving the snake was probably real.
Have you notise how happy Steve gets when his antics draw blood? He loves being “That Crazy Australian.”
