in Wekiva Springs State Park, glad it wasn't his 7 year old son. The man got 50 stitched and a few staples.


In Melbourne, Fl. a 110 lb. lab dog was attacked in a back yard by an 11 ft. gator. A trapper wearing flip flops killed it with a bang stick, video in link

"I felt a gator's mouth clamping down on my head. So, with all my strength, I reached up and I pried the gator's mouth off my head," said David Bostwick while resting at his home Monday evening. "It's the kind of thing you think can never happen to you."
I'll bet the ole adrenaline was pumping here--wow

Wow is that lucky. Gator chomp could easily smash a head into nothing if the gator had so chosen to do so. Thats a pretty badass experience to live through though!

Ouch! I love to snorkel and scuba. Dont mind doing it in saltwater in the ocen where sharks can be present, but I dont think i would do it where gators would be.
