Jackson added in the comments, "The Hippo was closer to the boat than what it appears on the video. It is amazing how fast a Hippo can move in water, never under estimate a Hippo speed by its physical size."Follow @JessicaDurando on TwitterEurope anti-terrorism raids lead to dozens of arrestsJan 16, 2015
