What did traveller say

[rocky321]

A traveler is captured by a tribe of truth-seekers.
The chief tells the traveler:
"You must make one final statement. If your statement is true, you will be drowned. If your statement is false, you will be hanged."
The traveler thinks for a moment, says one short sentence, and the chief is forced to let him go free because killing him would break the law.
What did the traveler say?

A crocodile steals a young child from a parent.
The crocodile promises: "If you can correctly guess what I will do with the child, I will return them safely. If you guess wrong, I will eat them."
The parent thinks for a moment and makes a single guess. The crocodile realizes that no matter what he does next, he cannot eat the child without breaking his own promise.
What did the parent say?

This is an absolute classic and famous logical paradox (much like the Epimenides or Crocodile paradox). The correct answer to this riddle is that the traveler said, 'I will be hanged.'
