The text is a dialogue from a video or audio recording, likely a show or podcast, where a group of people are attempting to transport three cars across a crocodile-infested river using a raft. The group consists of a man named Geoff Capes, who is driving a BMW 528i Touring, and two others, referred to as Hammond and James.
The process begins with Geoff Capes driving the BMW onto the raft, which is set off with the help of a rope. The group then crosses the river, with Geoff pulling the BMW across the water. The group experiences a few challenges, including the raft tipping over and the BMW nearly going underwater. Despite these difficulties, they manage to successfully transport all three cars across the river.
The group expresses surprise and relief at their successful completion of the task, with one of them saying it's the first time in ten years they've accomplished an ambitious task successfully. They also express a sense of weirdness and peculiarity at their successful completion, as they are used to one of them being in danger.
The dialogue ends with the group contemplating their next steps, with one of them expressing concern about the depth of the river and the possibility of the raft sinking. Despite these concerns, they decide to proceed with their journey.
