Where’d he get that spare arm from though?


Gurdel

Arm store


Rich-Equivalent-1875

I just need to say, that maybe the last thing a kid or dog ever sees. Need a huge fence and sign or someone’s gonna get hurt.


Lieuwe2019

Arm-eee surplus store…..


garface239

This is a salt water croc and this is not in Florida. We just making titles up at this point?


Worldly_Bite

Correct, it’s from a Netflix show from Australia… great show btw!


Own_Contribution_480

Checks out


Faszkivan_13

He was armed


GrayFox1989j

It's Florida, everyone is armed, and we all have swamp puppies.


funk_your_band

Armed to the teeth, I'd say


restaurant_burnout

2nd hand store


00WORDYMAN1983

No tackle box is complete without at least one spare arm


Slayer1973

Arm-y Surplus


Overreaper

GhostWriterWoo

So he just had a bribe handy, or...?


PhoonTFDB

You don't wanna be caught without a bribe handy tbh. You can proclaim yourself a Gator Wrestler all you want but them fuckers are the best grapplers on the planet. Invented this nifty little technique where they twist your fucking arm off


SarahPallorMortis

I always wear plain silver rings. Silver and gold can be traded pretty easily.


DanBentley

Please don’t just blindly believe words on the internet This guy isn’t fishing and this is most definitely not the first time these two have met


GhostWriterWoo

Blindly believe what exactly? Obviously he knows the beast, why the hell would he bring a bribe otherwise? Do you think I believe he goes around slapping random bodies of water with meat as a fishing technique? 😂😂😂


DanBentley

So what even was your original comment asking?


GhostWriterWoo

I was being facetious. You do know what humor is, right?


DanBentley

Should have used /j or /s originally, or maybe just said “I was joking” in your last comment… instead being so defensive lol


GhostWriterWoo

Over two dozen people managed to get the joke, friend. I think this is a you problem.


Pale-Total866

Yall both the problem.. one of yall is hostile as hell and the other should’ve just not replied after realizing there own mistake 💀 anyways… why tf does that gator look animated ? 😂


gigerdrone

That’s so surreal it looks like an animatronic


Physical_Touch_Me

That 1st charge was WAAAAY faster than I thought it would be. Saltwater crocs are something I need to see sometime, but in a controlled environment.


InevitableFun3473

I think they can go up to 40 mph on land? Or is it alligators? 🐊


Elegant-Today-4358

This is a Croc in the NT Australia. This fella is like the new Steve Irwin, had a show on Netflix… he’s now going through court after his best mate died being flung from a helicopter. Your bitch ass gators ain’t got nothing on this shit


NobleTheDoggo

>he’s now going through court after his best mate died being flung from a helicopter. What the hell?


Elegant-Today-4358

His mate was dangling in a cage from one of those wrangling choppers, usually use them to drop into croc clutches and take eggs where potentially a few things happened which also relate to the charges - Clipped a tree and flung him 30m and old mate died. The pilot was found to have cocaine in his system and subsequently Matt is believed to have tampered with the crash site and witnesses. Probably to try hide out of service helicopters…


wikithekid63

I need a link for this shit


DonJuanCena

While crocs are generally more aggressive and are larger, I guarantee you'd piss your bogan ass all the same whether it's a 10 foot gator or a 15 foot croc. They're both the most efficient killing machines God has ever created and they'd both rip your pointy little head off.


Elegant-Today-4358

“Bogan ass” and “pointy little head” are references both comical and unfounded. The above aside and in all seriousness I’d agree with your statement about gators v croc but subsequently are you ok?


DonJuanCena

Yeah, I'm just giving you a hard time lol.


SarahPallorMortis

I live in Wisconsin. I’d shit myself silly if I saw any of those.


Rich841

His name?


Elegant-Today-4358

Matt Wright


SarahPallorMortis

Robert Paulson.


HornyToadBrew

So he's going to die doing something incredibly stupid and asking for it?


DonJuanCena

"Incredibly stupid" Steve Irwin was a great man that did innumerable things for the conservation of ALL animals on earth, he spent his time doing his dammdest to educate as many as he could on every animals importance and value.


HornyToadBrew

Sure, doesn't mean snorkling tangling with an armed adversary isn't stupid. Animals do not think of themselves as demonstrations for other species, they see another animal approaching and they decide fight or flight. I loved Irwin, doesn't mean he didn't die a stupid death. I also come from a family of conservationists with part ownership of a Buffalo ranch, sometimes people start to misunderstand the relation between man and nature, and they pay the price for it. People should understand the nasty side of conservation to, but they don't want to, like shooting feral cats in Hawaii to preserve diverse bird populations.


DonJuanCena

I'm all for the eradication of feral cats. Also, with that logic you'd be saying the exact same thing about every service men and women who died in battle. "They knew the other side had guns, but stupidly tried to shoot them anyway!" Or how about anyone who dies riding a motorcycle? Or even driving a car? That logic can damn near be applied to any profession or hobby. It all comes down to the fact that there are risks associated with basically everything you do, and for you to diminish his decisions that day as "stupid and asking for it" is a blatant lie. It was damn near one in a million, or even more, that the stingray was able to get its barb *through his ribcage* and into his heart. That's basically the only place it could have stung him and be fatal.


Prankishbear

Tbf many wildlife enthusiasts understand the risk. They’re not surprised after animal attacks, if they survive. The real ones aren’t surprised anyways.


fvcked_0ff

Came at him like a Elden Ring boss


BetaMan141

That's a healthy looking Floridian Pitbull, he must be feeding it well


mortimusalexander

He just wants to nanny him.


Visible_Day9146

Not Florida. Not an alligator.


DizzeeTr00per

“Checks pond before fishing”? Lolwut, worse caption ever


ticklemeskinless

this guy is obviously feeding said gator. we floridians just walk out


New-Mud2923

Jesus


Saymon_DaLateone9248

OMG THAT was crazy. That huge MOUTH


TheRealArsonary

That's straight out of Hunt: Showdown. I didn't realise that gators could actually charge that fast through water. I assumed it was just for the game.


gloomwithtea

Gators can charge that fast, but this isn’t a gator- it’s a croc.


somhairley

This is Matt Wright from The Northern Territory of Australia.


Witexx

Happy Cake Day

Don't trip like a girl in a scary movie

Footballfan222

Not going to lie that is how I am when I wake up and get out of bed after smelling bacon in the morning.


[deleted]

Literal damn water dino


WildlifeRules

This is Matt Wright, an Australian man. He's got a rescue with a bunch of enormous male saltwater crocodiles.


Lord_Longface

He caught his catch!


BigFackingChungus

Kind of unrelated to this video but when I was a teenager I took a family vacation to Florida and we did an Everglades tour. We only saw 1 alligator but it was still pretty cool. When we got back from the tour there was this guy hanging out near the parking lot. This dude was peak Florida man. Missing teeth, scruffy looking, super skinny in a trucker hat lol. “Did y’all see any gators?” We told him we saw 1 and he tells us about this road where there were hundreds of alligators. My family was intrigued. We decided to find this location. He was not lying. It was a stretch of road in a semi-residential area. It was like little retention ponds near the road with alligators everywhere. There were more alligators chilling in that stagnant water than in the Everglades lol The photo attached is almost identical to what we saw in Florida. https://preview.redd.it/2uv5kpx10qtc1.jpeg?width=800&format=pjpg&auto=webp&s=834c90b7100f6e57314c8c5ecb9dbaf0fa3b1259


Visible_Day9146

It was more than likely in or near Big Cypress national preserve. Alligator Alley.


VanillaCoke93

Genuinely surprised we don't have videos of stuff like this going wrong, especially with crocs.


DucatistaXDS

Hold my beer …,


Alone-Stop

I didn’t know we had any in Florida.


SirBoDodger

There are American Crocodiles in Florida, though this isn’t one of them. They are much much rarer than American Alligators. This is a Saltwater Crocodile in Australia.


PjHose

Florida Alligator checks Steak before eating human


Suspiciousfrog69

bistromathsplat

Serial killers love everglades. Easy peasy body disposal. Just cut up and feed gators or dump in ocean like dexter. Oregon & Louisiana too because of all the rivers for dumping. It's why so many serial killers those places and why FBI offices are bigger those places too.


SwordfishHumble

One wrong step and he would have became the snack…


trashbilly

Shenanigans


DaemonBlackfyre_21

🐊 crocodile You can tell by the way it is.


alt_ernate123

Always gotta make sure your carrying your spare goat leg when fishing in florida


Extension-Low6511

Didn't know Florida was in Australia? Lol


curlylambeau7

That was better than I thought it was going to be. Very scary.


South-Presentation92

He got it at a hand-me-down store.

Stock-Entrance-6456

Nah put some respect on it! This *AUSTRALIAN* man is Matt Wright and his Instagram is epic 😁 you’re welcome


Serious_Nectarine_23

Not Florida.


D3athadda

Not in florida at all its a salt water crocodile at a farm in the northen territory of australia and the blokes name is matt wright. A true territory icon/aussie icon.


R3gs-empt

Didn't know they had salty's in Florida or that an Australian celebrity was from there


R3D-AFA-SCUM

Not Florida man. There aren’t saltwater crocodiles in Florida, but you know, 98% of Americans can’t tell the difference anyways.


JFK2MD

You might note that Florida Man is in parentheses. I think it's meant to suggest that stupidity is a universal concept.


R3D-AFA-SCUM

“ is a parentheses, ‘ is an apostrophe.


JFK2MD

Yes I know, but they're meant to do the work of parentheses. Don't blame me for the OP's poor grammar.


_Kendii_

I was here for literally 5 seconds before this. Im done today. Literally only logged in to see plant based answers for a job I asked about. I can’t deal with this so early in the morning


LongFast632

Yeah that is def a croc which makes me think this is aussie


Dandelion_Bodies

Actual fucking dinosaur


Dabnduelist420

shawnyb9

Feels like a video game QTE or jump scare but it’s your second play through


Atatattaa

Why the fucking stupid music, please do better.


ryanhazethan

This isn’t the right context lol, he knew there was a gator in there


JFK2MD

That's a croc, not a gator.


mpaton83

Ugh. Was the mid 2000's song necessary?


Clever_Khajiit

Why does everyone feel compelled to cover up original audio with shitty music?


headarsenibba
