I laugh so hard at the end where the three guys were pulling the alligator like someone is pulling a car broken down up to the hill
Same here, 🤭 tho I feel a bit ashamed about it.
Looks like George has figured out how to get on a “really fast ride” down to the lagoon.
Almost looked fake at first lol
Same here.. :D laughed so hard ..George had an ultimate 'belly rub' lol
Damn!! Me too...
George sliding down the street was the best part.
1:44 is literally a mood
He really said “I give up bruh”
What about his mood?
Definitely need a group in the area who's specialized in capturing gators.
When that thing attacked that fire pit I about jumped out of my skin! 😳
Relax
Zikes
He even has a name, Mate. What's with 'that thing' tho. It's a living creature who is equally confused & out of place.
That's probably exactly how the gator felt when that "thing" next to it moved.
🥴
1:44 is me when my parents dragging me to school after Spring Break is over😂😁
LOL
Not funny but I get it
🤣🤣🤣🤣
So True lol
@12 ɪɴᴄʜᴇs sᴏғᴛ I re-read it and it is funny af lmao my apologies
George apparently needs a few anger management sessions.
i think its cuz it has all them teeth and no toothbrush
Looks like he was suffering from gum disease.
I died laughing when they started watering the gator.
Gator: ah....a cool and refreshing shower
Lmfao 😂
Gator couldnt stop laughing
The female security guard standing back and watching is what made me laugh. A female security guard is about as useful as a horny eunuch.
“Don’t yell piper!” It just destroyed our outdoor campfire pit like it was nothing 😂
Poor George just getting dragged along.
What if George got up and started running towards them?
@osu22221 lol
@Kimberly Thomas I was thinking the same thing! 😆 Poor George gonna need another bath this time with cool water after the friction from that street!
🤣🤣🤣
Poor thing, that must've burned his undersides. (However, I did laugh - there was something funny about seeing that. I need psychiatric help... 🙁)
This alligator is definitely a performer. He had me in stitches 😂
That first side shot of George was hilarious. It looked like he was grinning for the camera. LOL
Poor George must have some serious road rash. OUCH!
Ok😂😂
Terrible creature 👽
WoW, shows how how fast Gators can move.😯
Yes, you don't want to unexpectedly stumble across & startle one in your yard.
@@droolbunnyxo9565 especially a mother guarding her eggs
1:43 imagine that being the first thing you see in the morning
I’d turn right back around
Poor gator! He must have been scared when that fire pit thing got moved. Glad it ended up well with him happy at his lagoon though.
they first tried to shoo him with water, but he only enjoyed it 🤣
I've seen tons of Alligator relocations and this is the first time I've seen the Alligator not have its mouth closed, its eyes covered, and carried off into a transport. Also what was that dragging across the street bit? I guess it was Amateur Day for Gator wranglers.
Except they're not gator wranglers. They are security.
Because he's not going miles away. They are taking him to a body of water right near by.
George was chillin while being pulled away at the end lol
i can't help but kind of feel bad for these gators : (
You are mad
Feel bad?? Why??
i just feel bad they end up where they don't belong and i could imagine it being disorienting and scary for them
@@boomeradley8748 Gators aren't that kind of animal. It takes a lot to make them uncomfortable.
I love animals but the ending was hilarious 😂😂😂😂😂 theyre dragging him like hurry up before his ass get up and start running at us we don’t have shit but this noose so we gotta be quick 😂 meanwhile George let his body go limp on purpose to watch them get tired from pulling so he could eat them 💀 when he bit the grill lowkey that looked like some movie shit especially how quick he moved. A bit scary ngl i wouldn’t be apart of nothing like this I’ll be damned I get eaten by a alligator.
One of the funniest thing I saw on the Internet ah ah
The end bit is like a Benny Hill sketch 😆
I like how the video said "transported" him to nearby lake... maybe George should "invite" someone for lunch
He/She did not come to play and gave everyone a sneak peek of that famous death roll♥️🐊
That’s a adorable dog 🐕
We have one named Pancake in our lake here in Florida. He just sum bathes and chills. No one feeds him and he is just fine
Is it just me or he is kinda cute!
You have that effect because of the rounded eyes that it has
@@Daniman-nk2vj Oh yes! And how small he is just look how cute he is!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
especially when he is literally dragged across the floor XD
No.
@@pulloutsange WHAT why!!!? He is so cute!!
I’m sorry, but the way they ran by with the gator just sliding across the screen had me dying 🤣😂
I swear I love animals
Rachel Jones lmfao 😆
He said I’ll be back!!! Trust me!!! 🤣
Oh my. I hope he didnt get hurt while being dragged on the asphalt.
He will be fine
He didn't
His skin is tougher than Kevlar.
"Aaaahhh... Cool refreshing water on a hot day ~ I... like it! 👍😃🐊
At this point I would move out of that neighborhood knowing the gator is still going to be near by.
just never move down here in the first place.
eat it!
@YugotSwaqedd how that? Attacks are pretty rare, and usually not deadly. And if that happens, it's always the humans fault (except if it happens with children, then of course the parents are to blame)
@@DreamerGalaxius I think there'a whole discovery documentary on it or something. People were ambushed. One lady was gardening near a pond, one elderly man was walking his dog. I think there were a few more.
I have always been told that any water South of the Mason-Dixon Line should be treated as being alive with Gators.
Remember, it is the Gator you can’t see, that’ll get you.
What a great video… excitement, suspense, jump scare, and comedy all rolled into one video. Oh, and a happy ending.
Big George!😨😨😨😨
🐊🐊🐊🐊🐊🐊🐊
first time watching gator throwing tantrum. but im laughing so hard when the police pull the gator with that tie and he just “yeah imma stay chill”.
Hey...Dont scrape Georges underside like that!!
Right on.
Yeah that made me wince. He was trying to tuck his feet too and they kept getting dragged under. I don't know why the family didn't just leave him. They're supposed to be sheltering in place anyway.
@osu22221 If that's common sense then that explains a lot about why we're experiencing coronavirus and police brutality. We need to rise above what's common.
Aisha with an Eye
Don’t be closed minded. A family with children are not leaving an alligator outside there house. They may also have a dog that they need to put out to to use the bathroom. Or a family cat that could be outdoor. They also push doors that are unlatched open at times.
You’re not helping anyone not thinking before you comment.
He did not seem calm enough to tape his mouth closed to lift him into a truck.They shouldn’t have dragged him, but if they had a better way to transport him they would have, I’m sure.
@@Orinatl Are you vegan?
When you have an alligator you don't have to worry about looters or rioting...
🤣😂
Florida and some state gators population should release them all in the streets. In just a day no protests of United colors.
There was a joke on Facebook with how Russia dealt with people who were not following quarantine orders to stay home by releasing 20 Siberian Tigers in the the street of Moscow. I feel like they should do that here.
They should release them in NYC,PORTLAND, MINNESOTA ETC
@@MOTORCYCLES-ANDGUNS or maybe release them against the fucking traitors that stormed the capitol
Did I really just see these guys dragging that gator down the street WTF 🤯 what are you guys doing for real 1:40
DayTrading Legend27 Hahaha 😂🚐🐊
DayTrading Legend27 thats animal abuse... drag it into a cage and move it like that wtf ppl obviously aren’t prepared
Sammy Sosa they didn’t cage him, they put him back. What’s the alternative? Pick up a 2-3m long gator and carry him? His underbelly whilst not as thick as his back is still thick enough that it wouldn’t cause damage besides, he needs to be by water because it helps them regulate their temperature so it’s all well and good saying leave him there but he could die if they don’t get him by water
@@sammysosaa Do you know how thick their hide is? That alligator didn't feel a thing.
@osu22221 LOL
0:20 he's enjoying that
Why drag him on cement
I know right??
Desert Mav He has rough skin, the cement won’t damage him.
@@fbiagentbob2545 ik but I'm pretty sure it didnt feel good thou lol
The video is a little confusing because it's out of order. The actual sequence of events was: the gator flipped the fire pit; they sprayed it with cold water to lower its body temperature and make it slower; they lasso'd it and pulled it out.
Thanks. Makes better sense
George is a beautiful creature who wouldn't be in the couple's yard if we humans hadn't encroached on their habitat. He was just chilling; doing what alligators do best. Long life, George.
@Als ob! Als-baby, poopsie, pumpy-wumpy-umpkin; your lame ass remark is all the help one needs to realize that the world is full of alligator food.
Girl shut up with that nonsense
Yeah Humans are at fault for existing. The gator is encroaching on human habitat rube. Gators don't live in suburbs and they don't live in dry areas. Al large wild animal wandered out of his habitat and was brought back by the nicest of all animal species.
I agree and eating the odd fire box for a snack....the last tenants disappeared without a trace ??? George ???? where were you last month around the 10th ???? hahahahah
Oh my goodness!!!! Wow!!!!
I loved Hilton Head, SC!
That gator moved.
DID YOU SEE THAT! 0:53
George is a playful fellow! 🐊
Quicker than I thought they were.
Were they trying to give him a road rash ?
Animals have every right to be here as much as we do
@To Even if that would be the case I would be okay with it! We snack animals too so why cant they snack humans? :D
If anyone is uneducated enough to go close to a wild gator they simply deserve to be a snack
Right but we don’t want our loved ones to get eaten so we tend to not want them on our property
No they don't. Only humans have rights.
@@aubriellemorgan Gators don't really eat people.
wow nice !!! 🙂🙂
George like nobody BBQ me today! Lol
I love when communities just collectively decide to name wildlife. Yeah, that's just George. He does that a lot.
I don’t know. Seeing the death roll out of water is kinda beautiful.
Should of called him Snappy
They said “transported George”. followed by dragging him like he had wheels.
1:46 that's the first time I've seen a gator dragged like that! Alligators are cool sights, never want to get to close to one though. I once got to see one during a presentation at the county fair and hold a baby. I have also seen them at the zoo in Madison. Cool stuff.
Pretty lame that they dragged him over the cement.
True but at the same time their skins is thick so they can take it
Still not good for the gator
George Died today Unfortunately
@Shem Casimir I am certainly not an expert in this. And that is a good question. Perhaps they could have more gently relocated him. But relocation comes with other issues such as competition.
Jeff J “more gently” is not a valid alternative
Imagine looking out the window and seeing this on 4/20
Wiw I have feelings that people now they have more sympathy and compassion for animals than for humans imagine this George if he comes face to face with a child or an adult even what is going to happen.
George said, “I’m sick of this sh_t!”. And they sent the 3 stooges to get him. Funny!
lol🙂
😁😃😃
0:56 he’s acting like a mad cat
One of the reasons im glad i live in england.
Same here bub, you can go to the countryside without about bears, big cats alligators etc etc etc. The only thing that might bother us in the English countryside, is an unfriendly deer😁
Dogs are more dangerous than alligators.
@@jameswatson5807 Deer kill far more people that alligators. A panicking herbivore is way more deadly than a disinterested scavenger.
the ending..... lol
April in Florida ! He needed Gatorade
It bothered me low the window was to house with the alligator thrashing around 10 inches below it. Low enough for it to crawl inside if it was open. I just saw a gator in Florida climbing a 8 foot chain link fence. So my thought process about gators is now skewed.
screaming while inside the safety of your house. 😂😂😂
Where is the GLM when you need them ?
The whole video is hilarious 🤣 .. specially the ending
He'll never leave if you give him a shower
Everyone in Florida should watch 00:50 to 00:65
Imagine if this wasn't at the start of the pandemic and people were out and about. The dad comes homes home from work and starts to say "Honey,I'm home." Then he sees the gator. "Never mind".
yeah " I wonder where the Mrs is ??? LOL
Bruh literally just viciously attacked water
0:25
He was=THX bro its too Hot 👏
Underrated comment
Why was it rolling? That was the LAST thing I had expected it to do!
Trying to get free of the catch pole I think.
Don’t yell Piper ! 😂
The best stop drop n rollers ever 🤣🤣🤣
I’m sorry but this moment 1:43
Had me rolling around and sheeeeeeett
George: Why do they keep doing this to me?
Can we Start a GoFUNDME for George ? Get him into a Good home and maybe Anger management Counseling...even AA meeting...No Gator should be Left Behind...the Swamps can be such a Cruel place...9 years ago I was GEORGE...angry with no place to Go...biting Barbeques and hating Life..
gator looks really happy about the shower they're giving it. lol. what's the purpose of that? it's not like they're scared of water?
As a cold blooded animal cooling him off slows his reaction time and makes him less dangerous and aggressive.
This gator was so strong and scary. I am glad i don't have the same job as these guys
Have a feeling that's not the first time George was taken for a drag.
Did not know they are so quick. Ugh !
“Don’t Yell Piper”😂😂😂😂
Mj up there smiling knowing that moonwalk by george was epic 🤣
Isn't that dangerous for George the gator? Being dragged like that must have caused excessive bruising.
Imagine if you had let you dog or cat outdoors to do their business.. I cant imagine living there.. I'd be scared to leave the windows open
Just like panda bear in snow =)
.... He's the local MD he has come to help 🐊
Bro....when they were pulling him🤣🤣🤣🤣
I bet dude had one hell of a road rash at the end lmao
Poor George, always having to eat from the lagoon when there are so many tasty pets around the neighborhood.
Holy that's a big gator.
Lol! Man, you can have that place! 😮
Let Piper yell! I would have yelled too!
Fun fact he was trying to find toilet paper
Cmon guys, the gator was just celebrating the special day like the most of us 😅
Darling what do we have for the dinner 🍽️?
It's on the backyard!!
I think Sherman the tank alligator also is in south Carolina he lives on a golf course
1:11 Rollin Rollin Rollin Rollin 😂
Why were they spraying it with water?
Feed him some chicken, he came over to say hello 🤣🤣🤣
