No photos shop and i saw it live.  Yes, he has those crazy eyes (the guy, not the gator).  He's been doing this a while.  His shirt says quick hands or no hands and he taps the gators bottom teeth to get it to clap shut.  The sound is stunning when it closes.  To get the beast close he blows through a pvc pipe that's partially submerged.

I hope that gator eats him one day.  Idiot.

The preserve is full of gators that he gets from golf courses, swimming pools, drainage ditches etc.  He gets called, traps them by hand most times and brings them here.

-- oh, it will happen, no matter how careful he thinks he is. Like humans I'm sure, 'gators have bad days too, which in turn hands him a bad day.  Or no hands day, take your pick.

This falls into the category of "don't try this at home".  The wife wanted to go to Gator Country for her birthday this weekend.   I think it was more for the grand kids than her but we all had a good time.   This one was over 13 ft long and well north of 1000 lbs.

--- and if things go the 'gators way around 1220 lbs. by the looks of him.

There's actually 2 beasts that size there.  Big Al and Big Tex.  They have to keep them separated as there can only be one alpha gator.  They're both over 13' and well over half a ton.  He fed them both.

On that note, stay tuned to the scyfy channel Sunday evening for The Last Sharknado---It's About Time!  To show their exhaustion with the plot lines, this one has the protagonist going back in time to stop the first sharknado, and thus save humanity (but not the inanity).

Ancient alien theorists suggest we are only advanced and only worth saving for their benefit and because of their benevolence.  Of course they are truly the world's greatest misanthropes...

Damn, it's about time......

 
 
That's great, it starts with an earthquake
Birds and snakes, and aeroplanes
And Lenny Bruce is not afraid
Eye of a hurricane, listen to yourself churn
World serves its own needs
Don't mis-serve your own needs
Speed it up a notch, speed, grunt, no, strength
The ladder starts to clatter
With a fear of height, down, height
Wire in a fire, represent the seven games
And a government for hire and a combat site
Left her, wasn't coming in a hurry
With the Furies breathing down your neck
Team by team, reporters baffled, trumped, tethered, cropped
Look at that low plane, fine, then
Uh oh, overflow, population, common group
But it'll do, save yourself, serve yourself
World serves its own needs, listen to your heart bleed
Tell me
Team by team, reporters baffled, trumped, tethered, cropped
Look at that low plane, fine, then
Uh oh, overflow, population, common group
But it'll do, save yourself, serve yourself
World serves its own needs, listen to your heart bleed
Tell me with the Rapture and the reverent in the right, right
You vitriolic, patriotic, slam fight, bright light
Feeling pretty psyched
It's the end of the world as we know it
It's the end of the world as we know it
It's the end of the world as we know it and I feel fine
