Ex-Op CO MAN TURNS REAL LIFE TARZAN

A Manchester supermarket security guard has moved to Africa to live in
the jungle as a real-life Tarzan. DeWet Du Toit, 24, has swapped his
Co-op uniform for a loin cloth and spends his days swinging through
trees and eating insects.
He became obsessed by Tarzan
while living in Namibia as a young
boy, where his father was a
collector of Tarzan books and
comics.
He said: "People might say I'm
crazy, but I know this is what I was born to do. I'm like Tarzan in so
many ways.
"My best friend is an elephant
called Shaka, and I spend more
time with monkeys, zebras and
crocodiles than I do with people.
"I'm not the kind of guy who loves partying, I certainly never get
drunk. I prefer to eat the fruits and berries that I find in the
jungle. I also know what insects to eat."
The former bodybuilder films his
daily life and hopes Hollywood
scouts cast him in a movie about
his hero.
The farmer's son spends three
nights a week alone in the bush
capturing his antics on camera.
The rest of his time is spent at his
parent's home in George, South
Africa, after arriving from
Manchester in 2007. He added: "It does get lonely - I would love to
find a Jane to help me pass the time."
lol, maybe he wants to be Geroge of the Jungle. -effec of too much movie.
