BINDI PLEADS: 'STOP MAKING CHANDLER be like Dad!'

Bindi Irwin is reeling after her husband, Chandler Powell, had a near miss with a crocodile at Australia Zoo.

A source close to the Irwin family insists Bindi, 24, is worried her US-born spouse is being led down a path to become a daredevil like her late father, Steve.

Footage of the scary moment has gone viral on TikTok. Captured by an audience member, the video shows Chandler, 26, entering the zoo’s famous Crocoseum as his mother-in-law, Terri, narrates the action.

Terri, 58, began the routine with a light-hearted joke, telling audiences not to panic.

“Don’t worry about Chandler, the water is heated,” she quipped, despite a giant crocodile squaring off with her son-in-law in the water.
