I was playing on a single player world, and I created a crocodile enclosure. I jumped into the enclosure to go get the crocodile scutes (or whatever there called) when a crocodile death rolled me, the option to hit shift to escape came up so I hit shift and ran away, once I got out I kept taking one heart of damage, and I took of my armor to see how much it really did, for some reason I hit shift again and then it teleported me back to the crocodile who then killed me. The only way I found to effectively get away from it is by ender pearling out of the cage, while I spam click shift. this is not the most put together complaint, I still am not sure if just walking away while the crocodile does it's spin causes constant damage or if shifting causes it.
