Here are the scripts of the conversation.

People have always been fascinated with death. Most of the mysteriesthat you see on television, the film that you see, involve murder in one kind or another.

Crocodiles are one of the last remaining dinosaurs and the idea of a crocodile coming out of the water and grabbing somebody is absolutely riveting.

I read about the death of the German tourist who was taken by a crocodile. It didn’t put me off coming to the Northern territory, quite the opposite in fact.

I think the NT is famous for its crocodiles and probably quite famous for its crocodiles attack and that tourist who come here would like to be, of feel as though they were, involved in that danger.

Tourist want to have a story to take home and if they can say that they were in the Northern Territory where the German tourist was taken by the croc, then it adds to their own adventure.

Most of the mysteries ‘that’ you see on TV involve murders.

I read about the death of the tourist ‘who’ was taken by a crocodile.
Relative pronouns are used to introduce adjective clauses

• a.   I read about the death of the tourist who was taken by a crocodile.
• b.   …. tourist (NOUN) who was taken by a crocodile (ADJECTIVE CLAUSE)

The tourist is subject. The ‘who clause’ gives more information

Well the relative pronoun WHO is only used with people

WHICH is only used with thing

THAT is usually only used with the thing as well. Sometimes, in informal language, it can refer to people.
