The documentary is not too old. To read about a big croc and to actually see one is two entirely different matters. I saw that 13-foot alligator in Florida ( it had been measured ) and in real life, up close, it is a living monster! I can hardly imagine a 20-foot-long crocodile. 
Perhaps what a tiger could possibly do and what he would do are two different realities.

Yes, most probably tiger would watch from aside. Then again I guess, that you have seen that video about a housecat which made... was it one or two alligators to escape :) Hard to say how they would act, but when so big croc and tiger, it is difficult to see a scenario where they would actually fight. Another one would for sure back off. Most probably tiger, but who knows, I wouldn´t be totally surprised if it would go in another way. I would be really surprised only if they would actually start a fight. After all in those occasions situations are usually resolved more with false attacks in hope to get another one to back off.
