Imagine your friend pushing you in as a joke and forgetting you're in Florida.
I was thinking about this the entire time, I’m visiting next year 💀
Had to have happened, maybe never reported. I know why you thought it, because it’s something I would’ve done to someone, because were Chad’s! 😎
I’m sure 40-60% of missing people from Florida can be assumed Missing Near Gator 🐊
🥺😩
Or just losing your footing & falling in. OMG, it could be the end🤦🏽♀️that’s frightening.
@@justmissjamey an animals life never ever comes before a human/s safety. You can cry and moan all you want about habitat/animal preservation, but people and their safety come before an animals. End of story.
As a Floridian, the rule of thumb is "If there's water, there's gators".
As a Mexican and person who has lived in Florida for like my entire life, I agree.
@@AkiraAlexisSoyra why mention being mexican lol
@@AkiraAlexisSoyra sooooo ...you are also a Floridian 🤦🏾♂️🤦🏾♂️
Saltwater though? I've never seen any evidence of gators in Gulfport but i was only looking in the bars 🤣

"Naw, there's one bigger than that."

Theres always one of those
Came here to comment this. Hate that this guy exists everywhere
I heard there's one even bigger than the 1 that guys talking about
There's always that one fooker huh...

So, essentially, pushing someone into the water in Florida automatically brings up an attempted murder charge🙄
Yep
LOL
Apparently, my friend were charged once because pushing his pal off from the docks as a prank as he doesn't know that it where there is sometimes 1 or 2 crocs swimming around. Luckily there is no Crocs nearby but he scared shitless and don't dare walking close to docks anymore.

@@FletcherHillier so, you would've pushed him back if that were you? If yes, I'm quite worried about your mental state.
So, some people take seriously about my joke :v I was just joking about his "Mental State."
The fact that he can just submerge a few feet below the water surface and become completely invisible is scary af

@@hammertiming8423 Nature doesn’t care. Act a fool and get replaced by the better animal.
@@hammertiming8423 most crocs drown their prey first. Tearing off pieces is from a prey that's large or they're feasting on dead corpses.
The thing that Floridians are always taught since a young age, don’t go near bodies of water without caution.
The snakes will kill you too.
In other words we were taught to have respect for them, not fear and hate
@@jamessteelman3936Let them see you first and you'll neverr know they are there. And beer is responsible for most snake bites in FL

@@blessedx3338 why crocodiles of course!
Floridian man here, never get into any water that you can’t see through because there’s gators in EVERY body of water. Even retention ponds EVERYTHING has gators
People in Northern Australia with Saltwater crocodiles: “That’s cute”
We have crocs here too. Only place in the world where both are native
I literally just watched a video on Mr. Ballen’s TH-cam channel about these 3 teenagers who were being actively hunted by a saltwater crocodile. Sadly, one of them was tragically eaten by the crocodile after he had fallen into the “black river.”
Here in Florida where I live, on occasion there will be alligators that come from the Indian River into the Atlantic Ocean via the inlet. But I’m in the ocean quite often, and haven’t encountered any crocodiles, nor do I have any desire to. Crocs have a much worse reputation than gators and they terrify me way more than sharks.
*Your comment is too funny, and probably super accurate. 😳
@@FloridaIsOneHellOfADrugWhile we do have crocs in the south there arent any in the ocean, only american crocs in the everglades but none in the ocean so its safe to say you can enjoy the ocean without having to worry about them

They remind of of my father when I was a kid! I cannot replicate! In a lake or pool! I could hold my breath a long time. With a ton of training, I may have been able to become a Seal! But, my dad should’ve been one! Thank goodness he didn’t wanna kill me, most of the time. Well, he did, but the water was his happy place😂 I’d be scared to death if one of those and all their teeth came up on me!🤭🙊💥
They can see you and you can’t see them even when you’re just inches from the water. You really gotta watch yourself around certain bodies of water.
Never has a more Floridian conversation taken place.
“That’s a big gator!”
“Nah, there’s one bigger than that!”
Floridians don't talk like that. Tourists do. Come on...Floridians are used to that. Don't insult us like that.
@@nayjavu Bro it’s a joke.
He ain't big, he just chunky. He just got back from a Golden Corral dumpster and is looking for dessert.
@@nayjavu nah yes you do y'all just did it with this Floridian dude. y'all are so used to having gators and Crocs and anaconda's because by rules of that state and by law it's required that one of these at least reveals itself to you every 5 steps and have to be chilling near somebody within that distance of their owners or soon to be owners or the pets of y'all state and y'all floridians are legally allowed to Shoot and or put the on Swamp People to be hunted if they don't do that what a crazy state to live in brother..that's why you see now all the predators have nametags and collars like dogs and cats down there cause the Crocs and Gators and Anaconda's are like a Floridians Dog and Cat and Bird and or Parrots And Canaries and or Hamster's and Gerbil's..Y'all got some really crazy animals considered pets over there
There is always one bigger!
When I was a kid taking the bus home you would see them sun bathing in the road sometimes. Our bus driver would wait for them to move, then stop and let us out!! His advice was "You gotta zig zag, be fast and hopefully I'll see you tomorrow." And kids think they have it hard today 😊
Have they gone extinct since then
Yes. Not the alligators. 😂@@kurtschneider1224
I’ve always told my kids, if it’s deeper than your ankles don’t assume there’s a gator, KNOW there are gator’s in the water
Crazy how something that large can just vanish like it never even existed.
It’s why they are always in murky waters . Albino reptilians have a taught time hunting. No camouflage
Just sink back down and wait...
Effing scary man
Well, the water visibility is about 2 inches...so pretty easy to disappear

As a Floridan, all bodies of water seem to contain a gator, yes that means your pool also.
As a Floridian, this is normal life. Unspoken rule is always assume there are gators in the water, never dangle your feet in the water, don't let your children or pets near the water, and always look at your surroundings if you near the water because gators are quiet and can sneak up on ya.
What!?! Your kidding kinda right?? When I was a kids you avoided ponds and canals but beaches were ours that is do do so sad.. they need 5o get there forest dudes to etepbup imagine having beachside home you can't enjoy damn...
@@iti7201 Well. beaches are fine usually you just gotta watch for sharks.
@@iti7201 Yea beach is fine since its salt water and gators stay away from that.

Being Born and Raised in Florida that Gator was lower average size at best. Phosphate Pits around here are full of 10-14 footers.

“Wow. That’s a big gator”
The other guy: NUH UH
The way he seamlessly disappears into the water is terrifying
Exactly what I’m thinking terries to the bone goosebumbs looking at it and the dark merky water you can’t see what’s under there why would we swim in the there
Why does water have to be that dark and murky. 😩 why can’t it be crystal clear and blue with white sand at the floor where you can see all the colorful fishes. Instead it’s dark and scary not knowing what scary big creature is there.
@@juniorsir9521 come to a tropical island most places are like that not all but most😂
@@danielcrawford7181 I’m speaking in general. I know there’s places with clearer water. Like why can’t all water be clear.
@@juniorsir9521 it’s not really possible
Yea in Florida the saying is pretty much "if you cant see the bottom, there is a gator" it's held true pretty much since I've moved here.
I've swam in clear blue water in Florida, we was tubing an we seen gators near the shore
How do you do the under the boat cleaning or maintenance then..? Omg
@@kjp851 that's a great question 🤔
@@yemum4162 Yeah, gators live in springs too. They swim around the caves in Crystal clear water.
@@yemum4162 If this was in freshwater yes those were Alligators. If it was in brackish or saltwater no, those were American Crocodiles which are a type of Saltwater Crocodile.
My friends here in Cali always ask why I don’t like swimming in creeks and lakes and whatnot and I always say “you haven’t been back east yet huh?” 😂
"There's ones way bigger than that"
I used to work with that guy. He was incredible (literally). He has gone faster, seen bigger, dated hotter, made more, beaten bigger odds than literally anyone.
A friend from Florida told me once to not worry about the gators. They won't hurt you. I told her that was the same thing we tell tourists in East Tennessee about bears. I don't think she got the sarcasm.
Good point.
Michael Holt I know that’s right
Bears are one thing, bears can show love and other nice emotions to each other, and some cases even to people. Gators on the other hand only have one emotion. Anger.

In Seattle, I swim in the lakes a few times a week in the summer. When I stayed in Ft Lauderdale for a month, I only swam in the pool lol.
So are in swimming pools too
Yeah if you live near a Waterway I would check your pool before jumping in because those things can climb fences LOL
I never understood why people flock to Florida in the Summers.
@@boogitybear2283the weather ofc
When I was 10 my grandpa convinced me to swim in his friends lake In Tampa Florida. There was a golden retriever swimming from across the lake. My grandpa was like thats how you know there aren’t any gators otherwise that dog would be dead. That was good enough reason for me and I jumped right in lol. 😂im still alive so I guess he wasn’t wrong?
Same in louisiana or mississippi lol; and watch out for them snapping turtles
Mississippi only has around 30k gators there's like 6 or 8 states with more. LA has more than Florida but they're relatively confined whereas in Florida they're literally everywhere. There isn't a fresh body of water without them except the spring fed ones that are too cold, and even then you can't be sure a chick had her head bit a month ago snorkeling in a spring fed river. Even the storm retention ponds are filled with them here.

In Florida the splash sound is a Water Chime for Gators to answer.
Yup. We would take waste from cleaning fish and toss them in still calm waters and it would erupt in violence in seconds. Do not swim in the water lol

@@georgepacheco9983 theres 7 species that can Gallup but only Cuban crocs really Gallup.
Tourists coming to the Orlando area do not come equipped with the necessary survival instincts to operate near Florida water. There is a reason all the water ways have warnings to keep out. A couple years ago when a kid got taken at a waterway in Disney I remember my family members being outraged, and I'm like guys every person living in Florida knows you do not go near water ways, especially at night. Gators can walk on land and no matter how many times you clean them out of a body of water, they will always get back in.
Yep. The kid was splashing in shallow water at night...a big no no. They didn't know any better
“Naw there’s one bigger than him” the guy who always says there a bigger one 😂
As someone who lives in Florida, basically every pond or lake has gators in it
Don't forget pools if you don't have a gate
Chase curious what part/city do you live in?
I’m in palm beach county southern end an in the 80’s 90’s my local canals were teaming with gators I haven’t seen any in 20 years where I live. I also live on a canal and walk my dog along different canals as well. I have literally go to Everglades to see local gator.
For real. Do people still swim in there? The lakes and ponds? Is this the ocean?
@@AmericanTravelers I've lived in Florida my whole life and not a single creature has ever stopped me from getting in the water. As kids, part of our education (depending on your county) is learning explicitly what to do when you cross the path of a gator, shark, or any kind of water snake.
Most Floridians are unafraid of these water beasts, but also respectful because we know what's up. I've accidentally kicked a gator in the river, and I've jumped in the ocean from a fishing boat when there was a shark nearby. As long as you're safe and smart, the water isn't anything to be afraid of :)

@@chuck8024 you sound like you’re from Florida. They are very lazy and slow animals but they can move for some food. They can and will jump straight out of the water and pull you under.

You have to check those in FL, too.
Another interesting fact: gators can jump the length of their body, meaning that they can easily jump onto that dock.
They can climb chain link fences too! Seen it
I was thinking that too
That's both interesting and terrifying
A related interesting fact - I can shit half my body weight in under 30 seconds under the proper circumstances.

When I was in the army, there was a guy named, “monkey” who was from Florida. He said alligators are like bullfrogs with teeth. If you don’t mess with them, they’ll leave you alone. He has a pretty big scar on his arm, the kind of scar that comes from having a plate put in surgically. I asked him where that came from, looked at me manner of factly and said, “gator”……
Lol, he probably said "gator" because "trampoline accident" was a bit less impressive to his new army buddies
He must've messed with it...
Matter*
I do believe gators will hunt/eat small mammals…like monkeys. So “Monkey” seems like an appropriate nickname.
So he obviously messed with some

No worries and don't be putting your hand in the water either.
Underrated comment

You the🐐🐐😂🤟🏾
Yea and also don’t feed them
Gator: “I could of sworn I heard the door bell 🤔”
"That is a big BOY !" - "Dude that is a BIG BOY" .. It's a case of knowing you would be defenceless against that.
Absolute unit of gator
Florida man: “Nah, there’s one bigger”
Yeah that ones smaller ngl
Saltys are a lot bigger then whatever one that bloke saw.
Honestly, hes a good size. But ive seen much bigger.
Ive honestly seen bigger gators in ponds that arent but an acre or 2
And if people only. Knew how fast they can move when they want to.. the noise they make at night is scary, along with their glowing eyes 👀
They are just scaly dogs lol
Hearing a gator at night, in the dark, and you can't see it until the glowing eyes are like 5 ft away from you.....
PURE TERROR!!!!
@@kiyosenl.3889 Yea no
I had no idea they made sounds.
They got them noise cancellation and infrared on
You always have the one dork going "Nah, there's one way bigger than that!" Relax dude...
Always that one guy. "There's one way bigger than him". Never fails.
Terrifying at how they "just dissappear". Nope, between these, and nests of water moccasins in the lakes, nope.
He’ll yeaaa u definitely right now sirrr
Its not too bad honestly, in over a decade I've almost only stepped on 1 water moccasin, he was curled up next to the first post of a makeshift dock next to the Hillsborough River. But we left each other alone. Idk the waters nasty af where the gators live for the most part so its not like your swimming in retention ponds when siesta key and other top notch beaches are less than an hr away
@@geoslabs7065 I’m nearby Sarasota and I see most all gators in retention ponds in subdivisions around here 😬
Oh yeah. I forgot about the water moccasins.
Water moccasins are a much greater actual threat
Florida resident: "Hey there little fella"
Tourist from Montana: "You guys have DINOSAURS here??!!"
I live in Montana and we have some decent sized gators here
@Jedi Luke 22 😆 Exactly!!!🤣😭
Me in a country with Crocodiles twice the size “cute”
@@howto-jl7ky i assume somewhere along the nile river ?
@@joseph99vw 😂
This is why we always keep that reckless friend around-they jump in the water first 😂
“Imagine a 2003 Escalade with the same tires, now rub my feet.” 😂😂
"Move to Florida!" "You'd love it down there!" THERE ARE DINOSAURS DOWN THERE. I DID NOT SURVIVE THIS LONG AS A HUMAN TO GET EATEN BY A DINOSAUR.
Was just thinking how dinosaurian they look.
Dinosaur is right. I used to walk around down there at night, tourist, totally ignorant
weenies! me florida! we ride dinosaur to work! uhg! uhg! * caveman noises *
I agree ...no thanks!!
9 years in Florida. Worst 9 years of my life. Heat and humidity for 8-9 months of the year, sprawl, traffic, sinkholes, mosquitoes, flying roaches, hurricanes etc. great place to visit but I will never live there again!
There's always that one guy, "naw there's one bigger than him" 😆 🤣 😂
I was about to post the same. There’s always “that guy”…
It's usually true, if you're talking to someone who has lived their whole lives there and are are familiar with the natural world there.
Yeah my crock is bigger than yours. Gator…whatever dude!
I saw a video after a big rain in Charleston where they were walking around down the street, or in the parking lots by cars!
Hate that guy
That's crazy. I live in Maryland near the Chesapeake bay. My friends and I were really into fishing and we were always near the water.I don't think that we would have fished if we had gators in the water. It was already dangerous enough because the reservoirs and waterways were close to Baltimore. One morning we got to a reservoir and a bunch of police came and questioned us. They told us that they had found a body exactly where we had been sitting .Major crime seemed to happen in all of the reservoirs and areas of woods where we would have to go to fish.
Walking near the docks is scary in Florida. You don't know when an alligator might jump at you.
*touches the water*
Gator: “Just call my name” 🎶
And I'll be there.. Just look over your shoulder honey ooohh 🎶
Fir some reason I heard The Weekend:
CALL OUT MY NAME! 🎶🤣
Hello Satan
@@blueshepard1656 So call out my name. Fall in to the water so I can eat you sideways lmao 🤣😂😅. Weeknd lyrics are so questionable.
Seeing him disappearing under the water gave me goosebumps
They look like gigantic frog's when they spread their legs to swim 😂😂😂
As a Pennsylvanian, I just found out that there are now Nile crocodiles in the Everglades 😮
Always throw in a grenade before swimming
Bruh good idea 🤣🤣🤣
Playing too much video games 😂
😂🤣
Great advice. I’ll remember that if I ever visit Florida
or just only go swimming in a well maintained swimming pool that doesn't have gators in it and stay the fuck away from the edge of any natural water.
It's scary how it perfectly blends into the water
*evolution* getting humans killed since the dinosaur times 😔
it’s perfeft how you spelled the word perfeftly
That's why gotta be very careful while around water areas. I always double up my alert and observation while slow ride around lake, river, ocean etc.
Exactly
@@Rebecca-asdf humans weren't around during the dinosaur times so that statement makes no sense
Alligator said "no touchy meh child" (child = water)
Croc like "dude, jump in.."
He grew up in that marina eating everyone's scraps.
For sure you're probably right and easy meal they don't get that big being dumb
In other words, it isn’t a practiced hunter. Someone other than myself should test that hypothesis… 🙄
Yeah, fish leftovers
What marina is this?
@@cannabass5729 Yep so it probably won't bite the hand that feeds.
This shit doesn’t happen in Louisiana, lol. The gators there know cajuns will turn them into fillets and throw them in the fryer 😂😂🐊⚜️
With a statement like that I know you've never been to Florida. You can't go to any non chain restaurant in South Florida that doesn't serve Gator bites. Heck when driving through the everglades they have Gators Crossing signs on the highway
These gators will go extinct if they only exist in countries like China. All body parts will be for sale in the market.
@@David-jh8mp but they don’t
@@David-jh8mp well they probably did go extinct considering there's only gators at the zoo in china...
@@David-jh8mp China specializes in bats 🦇
