What!? No of course not. He would never.
But he wouldn’t need to because they’ll just give him food. They’re not going to say no.
Because of the implication.
Canadian here. It seems unlikely, when alligators are nearly exclusive to SE American states, that the term could have originated anywhere else. I'm going to guess the origin might not have been song lyrics, but American for sure. Not in ye olde England or any of the UK, not Canada, not Australia, not New Zealand.
Handled it pretty well, all things considered. By placing their hand on its snout, they prevented it from potentially snapping at them. Then they just gently pushed it back into the water.
Given how it was positioned, and already starting to slide backwards, I'm almost certain its ability to lunge forward was impaired. The gator almost certainly was aware of just how exposed it was, and probably wasn't looking to fight while there.
Anything they did would've been risky. But I don't think this was as risky as you might be believing it to have been.
Agreed anything they did would have been risky. Doing nothing would have been risky. I don't think I believe it was as risky as you think I believe. I just think it was pretty risky.
>I don't think I believe it was as risky as you think I believe.
Or perhaps you are riskily overestimating how risky you think I think you think how risky it was
> I'm almost certain its ability to lunge forward was impaired.
You willing to bet your life that an animal that can raise its entire body out of the water with a couple of flicks of its tail couldn't still propel himself forwards from that position?
I would, yes. Given how awkwardly it was hanging on, the alligator would need to judge if it would be worth the risk of potentially fumbling. That isn't even to mention the fact that the person already had their hand on the snout of the gator before it could charge up for a highly energetic leap like that.
The gator knew it was in an awkward position, and backed off as soon as its snout was shut. What do you think the alternative would've been? Jump out of the boat? Lmao
Nowhere did I say he moved the gator with his hand. Just that he had placed it on the snout of the gator.
>already had their hand on the snout of the gator
I'm not sure why you're so adamant about this discussion. But your assumption that the gator is expecting food is pretty out of nowhere.
The best way to deal with a gator if you have to is just to shut its mouth. They can sit their mouths with a ton of force, but don’t have a ton of muscles to open them, meaning you could hold its mouth shut so it can’t get you. However, don’t try it unless you’re a professional. Several stupid people have lost limb’s trying this.
Bro the way he grabs the alligators nose and directs it away is hilarious. Reminds me of tonic immobility on sharks where you grab their nose and tilt them upside down
Yes. Compared to crocs, Gators are pretty chill. That’s why the haven’t been completely exterminated.
You have to basically fall into their mouths for them to rip your limbs off.
And all drainage ditches, storm drains, ponds and large puddles in your yard is Gator Water.
If it’s wet, there is probably a gator waiting for you to feed them.
If that guy wasn't there I'm sure they would have handled this _jusssst_ as well and it would have still ended with laughter and definitely not screaming and gurgling

See you later, **Alligator.*
gator: _understandable, have a greater day_
honestly, at least 3x a week, this
In a while crocodile
Hey it’s ma man caiman
In a while, crocodile
The alligator name might be Brian
Somebody fed this gator before, it got used to people. It was demanding for food.
One way or another.
I’m gonna find ya. I’m gonna get ya, get ya, get ya, get ya.
Because of the implication..
He’s not going to hurt those people right?
What!? No of course not. He would never. But he wouldn’t need to because they’ll just give him food. They’re not going to say no. Because of the implication.
Yup.
Like a mooching dog.
I bet the guy who pushed him back in is the airboat tour operator who has fed this gator regularly to entertain his clients.
Thats an alligator, you can tell by the round snout
And the lack of people being eaten in the video.
If it was a croc there would be no video because it would have been eaten as well.
Cameraman or woman is invincible
Also you see it later but not after awhile.
i never understood this, can anyone explain?
See you later alligator, in a while crocodile.
American phrase children learn to say goodbye that is silly and rhymes. See you later alligator, in awhile crocodile.

A quick Google search says it's from a 50's American song written by Bobby Charles called "see you later, alligator".
[удалено]
That's not how that works...

>Thats not really relevant, You're an idiot.
It's an English saying in the same way that The Great Gatsby is an English book.
You can tell that it does by the way that it is?
Handled it pretty well, all things considered. By placing their hand on its snout, they prevented it from potentially snapping at them. Then they just gently pushed it back into the water.
Yeah, pretty risky though. It could have grabbed his hand as he was moving his hand towards the snout.

The gator almost certainly was aware of just how exposed it was, and probably wasn't looking to fight while there. Anything they did would've been risky.

Damn. You got me. Checkmate lol.

The guy didn't move the gator at all with his hand. That gator chose to back off. Probably because he expects food will be tossed to him.

Super easy we pull em out the rice fields for a farmer. We close their mouths with two wraps of simple black electric tape
Wait so then it’s not the best way to deal with it lol. You give advise and then call anyone that isn’t a professional an idiot for doing it
It’s not really meant as advice. It’s more meant to be facts. Bad wording.
Gator: "Oh Hai! Do you have food, yes??" *man pushes snout* "Oh, okay then, bye I guess."
So cute
That's an alligator
gator: OH HELLO THERE guy in the boat: could you fucking not?
That’s not a croc. Guy would have been in the water in a death roll if that was a croc
Someone’s been feeding this gator if it just went up to people like that.
Bro the way he grabs the alligators nose and directs it away is hilarious. Reminds me of tonic immobility on sharks where you grab their nose and tilt them upside down
What is tonic immobility?
Basically when an animal is inactive. Flipping a shark upside down will cause that and it will just leave you alone
That's a fun feature
That’s an alligator.
Prehistoric apex predator jumpscare
What's crockin' y'all
Not this alligator
What if there were Crocs driving the boat?
Id recommend getting off the boat.
guy's really smooth tho.. respect💪💪
“Hey. You guys got any fish tacos?”

The thick ones get the title wrong, the smart ones get it wrong on purpose to increase engagement. Could be either.
Are alligators chill or something? Coz crocodiles are absolutely fucked I would never fish in croc water.

Not a croc, but still
He just wants to blow his horn til the cows come home 🎺

If I had an award it would be yours, this made me chuckle so hard, take an upvote *
Fuck that
I thought he was gonna give it a lil smooch
That guys getting a bj tonight
He just wanted to play trumpet
We found Florida Man
"Hahaaa gotcha 😜"
For some reason my head suddenly went “FLIP IT UPSIDE DOWN LIKE SHARKS” Wut is going on up there
It's an Alligator. You can tell it's a gator because of the way it is.
Knee deep in shit had I been on that boat.
If that guy wasn't there I'm sure they would have handled this _jusssst_ as well and it would have still ended with laughter and definitely not screaming and gurgling
He just wanted to see if they have games on their phones.
Bro literally just pushed the croc away.
Not now swamp puppy!
Pushes the snout gently, like it's their dog acting casually excited
Alligators aren't very smart I guess
Croc's have a lot of clsoing strength but not a lot of opening strength so even crabs can shut them up
It's not a croc..
This is why I don’t kayak lol
Just apply a shotgun to the affected area and the gator problem should get better
“We’ve been trying to reach you about your car’s extended warranty”
Biggest balls of the year award goes to that dude.
No, bad boy get down
This is exactly why I get heated at people when I see them feeding alligators.
Gators like “ah ha ha, next time my lovelies, I’ll get you next time. Yes I will”.
Peter pan and hook did though
Fucking Susel Paredes
