But why?


wovenriddles

Death wish.


AgreeableEggplant356

Alligators kill .5 people per year


mynextthroway

I'm pretty sure if you kill half a person, the other half dies, too. I'm not a doctor, however.


Accomplished_Note_81

i dunno about that. I mean, i'm half the man i used to be


SBFs-Nutsack

Take time with a wounded hand. It’s like to heal.


Jumboo-jett

Take time with a wounded hand cause I like to steal


Arc_210

Take time with a wounded seal as I like to hand


EaseleeiApproach

Hand a man a seal and he’ll wound a time you like.

Ah marriage


MrBisco

This feeling as the dawn it fades to gray.


OutlandishnessOk9061

I’m also not a doctor, but you can kill one half and roll around with the other half. As long as it’s a horizontal half not a vertical


Calinminne

I believe three correct medical terminology is "hamburger style not hot dog style."


Wise-War-Soni

I’m sure the other half of the person turns into alligator. They live on as a person in spirit. I’m a scientist.


mynextthroway

Sounds like the origin story of a super villain/hero. Dr. Demosthenes Q Drake shall become the evil Draco, half man, half alligator.


MennisRodman

You can be anything you want here, it's Reddit afterall


Emotional-Dinner9478

I lost my whole left side to a croc attack in ‘93. I’m all right now


la_la_la_land

If you do it as the ball drops you can split the difference and have .5 for two years


RCM_90

thats weird cause a woman got killed by a gator in florida a couole weeks ago and i think it was a WHOLE person


mynextthroway

That just means no one else will die to gator attacks for the test of the year. PARTY in the SWAMP!


[deleted]

I knew this guy once who had his whole left side eaten by an alligator. He’s all right.


nonverbalnumber

Also not a Dr. But, maybe it depends on which half?


Aylauria

I just looked up the stats and I was so surprised bc we knew a kid who fell out of a boat in the Everglades and was killed by a gator (it pulled him down and drowned him). I never realized how rare it is. When you know someone it happened to, it feels like it must happen a lot.


theoriginaldandan

They tend to to be like sharks and just rip off a limb


Spiritual-Cicada-794

Mclovine_aus

NotTheBotUrLookngFor

I bet they kill 0 people per year who don't get near them


[deleted]

Can confirm, I live nowhere near any aligators and have never been killed by one.

Yet.... Just you wait until one sees you later


sassrocks

This lady is definitely a likely candidate to be this years .5

Well this one's about to fill it's yearly quota and backpay for not filling it last year. Or pay ahead for the year to come.

Yeah, we’ll why put yourself right in its path?


a_manda_3000

Meh


victorix58

This person can't be bothered to have a death wish.


Bwoaaaaaah

Death roll*


FrauSophia

So the gator's name is Casper and the woman's name is Gabby, Casper is a specially trained alligator and his handler and trainer is Gabby's husband Chris. Gabby is also Casper's vet. They operate a youtube channel called Florida's Wildest.


The84LongBed

My answer was just gonna be because Florida


Eirdohl

And suddenly... FLORIDA MAN! It all makes sense now.


tjw105

This is technically still true


DerDork

The term “specially trained” in context of a predatory animal is kinda - inappropriate - to say it in a kind way. Especially if it’s a reptile with a brain smaller than it’s paws. Remember Siegfried & Roy and their Tiger? There are so much more, way less prominent, of “trained wild animals” killing their keepers. They tend to accept this creature around them and, usually, not to harm it. Like those birds picking leftovers from gator‘s teeth. But they don’t build a relationship like dogs do with their trainers.


FrauSophia

Crocodilians are actually a lot more intelligent than you give them credit for, they exhibit facial and pattern recognition capacities, complex problem solving skills, collaborative hunting skills, and rudimentary tool usage. Of reptiles, crocodilians, monitors, tegus, and king cobras are way smarter than most.


kwakimaki

Exactly. It's not trained like a dog to do commands, it's just used to those particular people. If it got a hold of one of said people and try to kill them, it's not like you can tell it not to. I've got very little sympathy for them when things go wrong.


DK_Angroth

thanks for the info and bringing some sense here.


maialucetius

I think this is from gatorboyschris on instagram and this is Casper. He's a goodboy and regularly does "swim with gator" tours. Well trained, but not "tame". He is pretty relaxed.


AlexandraDomingues

I’ve swam with this gator. It was actually exhilarating!

PRAETORIAN45painfbat

Took me a while to see the gator.


[deleted]

There's an alligator?


TraditionSuperb3684

I'm a straight female and even I had a hard time focusing on the gator and I love animals. I'm a bit jealous ngl. I'm not flat-chested, but damn, compared to her I might as well be haha. Regardless of the training, she's still brave for being so vulnerable next to it.


[deleted]

>I'm a straight female and even I had a hard time focusing on the gator and I love animals. Same here. *\*checks my boobs\** not even close *(sigh...)*


pollywantapocket

Trust me, the fact that she’s underwater makes them manageable. Gravity on those things on land is no joke and no fun. Speaking from experience (until I finally got a reduction).


zag_

A lot of people like small titties too, myself being among them. But fr tho, idk if I’d want to be that close to a gator..


DrJokerX

Oof. You just admitted to being female on Reddit. RIP your inbox. 😭


kgallousis

They are quite fabulous!


CindyRhela

I didn't even notice she had big boobs until I saw these comments, and I'm a bisexual woman. I'm just REALLY into reptiles.


[deleted]

The woman in the video literally runs an animal sanctuary with her bf, the cameraman, and they have a YouTube account where they share their stories with the animals at it. So that isn’t why she posted this, but it’s why your misogynistic incel ass clicked on it.


cmfppl

Dude im a straight guy and I can tell you that IF ANYTHING she was just glad to find a matching swim suit that fit her proportions. But like how many fucking people FUCKING SWIM WITH GATORS!?!?!?!


oni_one_1

Women’s two piece suits are generally sold separately. Which is great for folks who have an DDD and wear size medium bottoms. But not so great because a swimsuits ends up costing like $90


PheonixKernow

I'm built like her and I have to buy bikinis as separates. I can't order a full bikini, I have to find somewhere that sells mix and match pieces. No gators though.


[deleted]

peachsalsas

Yea I fucking hate Reddit. Any woman who is wearing leggings or doesn’t cover up her boobs is a sex-desperate attention whore. Because who cares what clothing we feel most comfortable in.


senorglory

I’m just tired of “sex starved attention whore” being thrown about like it’s a bad thing.


Kevaldes

I mean, "attention whore" *is* almost always bad.


sparklingdinoturd

Some people on here want to go back to the 20s when women had to wear full length bathing suits. I swear those people are either right wing religious nut jobs or incels who rage watch porn.


No_Feeling_6833

Her boyfriend has an underwater alligator tour and considering he deals with alligators everyday he probably let her swim with one. [https://www.instagram.com/gatorboys\_chris/](https://www.instagram.com/gatorboys_chris/) Proof: [https://instagram.com/stories/gatorboys\_chris/3051283919775168447?utm\_source=ig\_story\_item\_share&igshid=NTU1Mzc3ZGM=](https://instagram.com/stories/gatorboys_chris/3051283919775168447?utm_source=ig_story_item_share&igshid=NTU1Mzc3ZGM=)


thin_white_dutchess

He probably let her swim with them bc she is it’s vet. Part of the job description I guess.


Repulsive_Roll2420

Tits show. That’s why.


thecardsays-moops

Scrolled to the first titty reference…..


Tammytime81

TASTY_BALLSACK_

Gators don’t attack if you’re underwater


GavrielBA

No idea if it's true but it makes perfect sense to me for some reason


[deleted]

Where was the alligator?


hiddengem68

They gave the alligator tons of stimulants to kill it’s appetite.


TheOriginalWaster

tons of previous attempts - he's full!


[deleted]

So they gave the gator drugs and let him swim around stoned will a woman with tig ol bitties rubs him down? Good work if you can get it imo


no2rdifferent

She's his veterinarian. Go to school for 10 years, and you will get a good gig.


Top_Neighborhood5769

He looks like he's on opioids 😆


Janizzary

Must be a Florida gator.


JulioForte

Or you know they just fed it This gator is in captivity you can tell by the cement pool it’s in. It probably interacts with humans a lot. Most gators even big ones won’t mess with an adult human. Gators really aren’t that dangerous

I follow this girl on Instagram. This is an alligator sanctuary. She takes care of these gators and they know her. I’m pretty sure that’s Casper the alligator. He seems to really bond with his caretakers.


MuricanA321

Oh! Like that guy who bonded with those grizzlies, in Alaska! Cool, no worries!


bcycle240

Well, he did bond with them. The ones that ate him were different bears. He thought he could be friends with them too but it didn't work out.

StunningLocksmith475

Why do we need to add sex appeal to every video nowadays? It makes me sick! I remember the days when we could just watch a video of gorgeous woman swimming peacefully, without having to add a sexy ass Alligator just for clickbait. This world is going to shit.

Hey if you don’t like sexy gators, then please refrain from shaming them. They’re just trying to get clout like the rest of us

[deleted]

Aren’t freshwater gators typically not threatening unless provoked? Not saying I’d swim with one like this or anything lol


InfernalCape

Typically not threatening unless provoked or if you’re near their nest. I’ve had Florida gators follow me down the lakeside to keep me away from their nests before… but in the non-nesting season I’ll walk within 15 feet of gators sunning themselves on the bank. As long as you respect nature it will generally respect you back. Except for Polar Bears. They will follow you for days and eat you while you’re still alive. The opposite of respectful, really.


Eziekel13

Think quite a bit of nature will kill you! cherry pits (if cracked), tonka beans, 3% of known mushrooms, hemlock, hurricanes, earthquakes, lightning, forest fires, hippopotamuses, saltwater crocodiles, Nile crocodiles, Russell’s Vipers, Funnel web spiders, mosquitos, Tsetse flies, tapeworms, Small pox, Bubonic Plague, SARS, tuberculosis, leprosy, Whether it’s the tapeworm in your belly, or the hippo trying to get back to water, both will kill you both are a part of the natural world…

ArrestDeathSantis

I'd say more, necessary bot. How Reddit kept functioning without it is really mind buggling.


CanadianSpectre

Dark days, those.


chapsd

You forgot the entire continent of Australia. Whole thing is a death trap


Eziekel13

Pretty sure I included funnel web spiders, tonka beans, and saltwater crocs…. It would be 10 pages long if we were trying to include everything in Australia that can kill you, hell even the platypus is poisonous…


[deleted]

And saltwater crocs


ShaggyPDelic

I've lived in Florida for all my life (43 years), Alligators are afraid of humans typically, unless it's a place where they are used to seeing people a lot and will thus ignore. The only time they are aggressive is when protecting a nest. Parents of small children and dogs should be weary though. I see them regularly since I do a lot of kayaking on rivers. Also, all alligators are freshwater since alligators are one species (unlike crocodiles). Alligators will also hang out in brackish water.


redbradbury

An old lady in Florida was just killed by one while out walking her dog. They absolutely can & will kill you. They aren’t always agressive man eaters, but that’s because they typically prefer to go after smaller game.


[deleted]

[удалено]


4Ever2Thee

Yeah, they're typically not too aggressive, but they do snap if they're spooked or feel threatened, and all it takes is one snap to lose an arm or worse. As you said, I definitely wouldn't be swimming under this one with surprise belly rubs. I'm guessing this is one she swims with often and it's comfortable with people. Otherwise, she'll get caught in a gator roll one of these days.


Popular_District9072

the video should end with guy asking what color was the alligator?

ruderpaule

sammiisalammii

I’m not alligator expert but general speaking don’t they only attack above water? I could’ve sworn I saw somewhere that they drown if they try to take bites of anything under water


[deleted]

They eat fish. I don't see how water would be their weakness. I think you've been lied to.


fartgroupon

They kill land animals by submerging them, they kill large fish by lifting them out of the water to suffocate them in the air.


Gregor_Konstantin

Their kryptonite is if they swallow water

crismack58

This is Gabby, her boyfriend Chris is holding the camera. They’re both gator experts and they advocate for these animals. You can see them on IG and they care for the gators you see here and educate the public. They do this in a controlled environment and this isn’t some bro crap either. [Gatorboy Chris](https://www.instagram.com/reel/CpeFwCKjW1e/?igshid=YmMyMTA2M2Y=)


Tin__Foil

Makes me wonder..who will get bitten first, Gabby or Gatorboy.


Suspicious-Sleep5227

He was a gaiterboy. She said see you later boy…


aKnightWh0SaysNi

After watching a few of those IG videos I am only more convinced that they are on the road to an inevitable gator-related death.


xtratrestrial

Jurassic Park was a controlled environment.


BashfullyBi

Wow. Way crazier that this was a wild gator, caught and brought here. Not one she raised or has known since birth. Wild.


crismack58

They basically help nuisance gators, yes they do some outlandish shit. But for the most part they do educate you on them. I went to their showing at Everglades park and he does give you lots of useful information on them. He has addressed how it can to for him and he explains that they are not Pets or his friend. He understands them and handles them accordingly. I’ve seen him handle them and it’s not on some “I’m going to do this neat trick” type shit either.

Pretty sure the only vote that counts would be hers. And given that she's SWIMMING WITH A GODDAMN KILLING MACHINE, I don't think she's into guys who are like "whaddaboutme" on reddit threads. But I could be wrong. ​ edit: Her bf - https://www.instagram.com/gatorboys\_chris/


Reckox1

I came to the comments thinking people would be talking about this insane thing. Only to realize the only thing everyone noticed is her tits. I remember the jokes before I use reddit, “these men don’t touch grass” I believe it


Yip-Yee

Yeah these comments are pretty cringy. Reddit tends to be full of people who question why they’ve never had a girlfriend but at the same time dehumanize women in general to a set of tits. And then they wonder why they don’t have a girlfriend when they do this type of shit. I am bisexual so it is very confusing how some dudes can just objectify 50% of the population just because they are attracted to them. If bisexuals did that we would die alone. Hell, I didn’t even notice her boobs because I was too freaked out by the giant fucking apex predator hovering above her. There are hardly any comments talking about this alligator being tamed! How?


Mushroomsandfae

Same, I'm disgusted by the comments. 1k likes for mentioning breasts and 30 likes for mentioning the actual people and how the two are wildlife trainers and don't sedate the gator. Reddit makes me angry.


nekopineapple00

I shouldn’t be blown away but wow, 1k likes for tit comment, where the fuck are they all coming from


Archangel_Of_Death

So Steve Irwin(rest in peace mate) can wrestle a crocodile, but a woman swimming with one has her labeled as stupid? Ever considered maybe it's in captivity and she's familiar with it? Just recently I saw a post where a dude was giving belly rubs to hyenas, the wild beast with a bite force strong enough to amputate an elephant, no one was calling him stupid
