The men were attacked by the four-meter (13-foot) crocodile in the Finniss River in the remote Northern Territory after they entered the river to wash their motorbikes.
The attack occurred on Sunday afternoon when the animal dragged 22-year-old Brett Mann under the water as he stood in the river.
His two 19-year-old companions rushed into the water to try and save him but the crocodile began to attack them, forcing them to climb a tree in the middle of the river to escape.
