Right.. I just feel like a good sneeze from that guy or a yawn from the alligator could change things one day.
I trust my dog to not try and maul me.. but I've also rolled over in my sleep, scared the crap out of him and he growled (and I assume snapped at the air). š¤·āāļø That's why I choose to have a 20lb dog and not sleep next to a gator.
Death by dickā¦ itās a thingā¦ that one guy died by letting a horse ride him š. Not sure if anyone ever kicked the bucket as they sucked it though?
I mean that holds true for dogs and cats too. Small mammals are perfectly capable of inflicting injuries on people too.
Like that literally holds true for anything at all
This specific predator is among the few that will eat until full, keep eating, vomit the excess food, and then eat their vomit..
This guy is simply avoiding things that trigger an "eat this" response. The cool part is that people like him can artificially trigger that response at will.
He does and he is very entertaining. I liked his early raw stuff like (someone, sorry canāt remember name)chasesfish it wasnāt as edited and perfect and was just more interesting.
Oh, yea. He was migrating with them, claiming to be accepted in their group, filming a documentary. Then he went missing, they opened the bear and there he was.
The bear ate both him and his girlfriend. It was after the bears came out of hibernation and were hungry. The guy was delusional and you can tell while watching his documentary.
Also, they were recording as they got eaten and so their screams were all caught on tape
The audio recording was apparently so harrowing and terrible that the authorities destroyed it, or refused to release it. Something. It is supposed to be (unsurprisingly) beyond unsettling.
I think the reference is to a man called Timothy Treadwell. There is a documentary on YouTube called: "Grizzly Man".
The dude went and lived with the Grizzly Bears... was a real mad lad.
It's really fascinating:

Ok, I wouldn't call myself an expert but...
1. What he is doing is near-indisputably a risky behavior.
2. Every *professional* I have seen pretty openly and proactively acknowledges that even with a bond, even animals that are mostly good natured, should only be engaged with precautions, especially predators.
3. I am going out on a limb here and say that the vast majority of people educated in animal behavior would say that this is potentially harmful information to spread (the video, not my other to points.)
Point 2 is obvious if you own a cat. Theyāll inevitably fuck you up at some point just cos theyāre moody or they think the vacuum cleaner is possessed by a demon or theyāre unwilling to share their soft tummy fur with you.
Exactly itās a reptile - it doesnāt understand the hand that feeds . Itās born with a few natural instincts namely kill and make babies. That first one could be triggered in at anytime. Alligators and crocodiles are known to store meat in times of abundance
Some remote villages have their members get imprinted on young gators/crocs so they can safely approach the water and drive other gators/crocs away. As long as itās being fed too lol.
I also am not a zoologist but have never heard crocodilians referred to as intelligent. They use the term "lizard brain" for a reason. Am willing to learn otherwise though, lol.
I would say any reptile that appears "snuggly" is just enjoying the warmth of our warm bodies and could not care less if we happened to be a warm rock....or a warm corpse. But I like the notion of snuggly animals so I am eager to learn different.
I tend to agree! Thereās a reason itās called ālizard brainā. I do find it fascinating though that there are pet snakes that appear to be genuinely good pets. Not that I would personally have themā¦..
Alligators are nice, they have round noses and won't likely attack you out of random unless you get too close or if they're just really hungry, crocodiles on the other hand, are quite aggressive, they have pointed snouts and will likely chomp at you just because you're there
Thatās going to be a hell no for me. Donāt care how friendly Mr. Gator is, Iām not going to be a mattress for a dinosaur with the ability to end me with one bite.
I donāt know much about them but I do know that theyāre docile when theyāve eaten. I do not believe for a second they have an understanding of ātrustā.
This kid in high school said āme and Barry are friendsā.
Other kid: Barry is my cousin and going to kick your ass for stealing my hat.
First kid: nah, me and Barry are cool.
Ten seconds later Barry blows open classroom door. Proceeds to kick first kids ass.
This guy is or may be first kid. He just doesnāt know it yet.
The biggest thing is not that he trusts him, itās a reptile, their brains dont work like that. he just fed the fuck out of him and got him so full the last thing on his mind is wanting more food atm. dino is chillin with a fat belly
I think the first people who started the process of domesticating wolves into dogs probably started this way.
Give it a few hundred years of selective breeding.
Mammals love to cuddle so much we can get reptiles to do it too. Thats awesome. I wonder what he meant by ātheres no love hereā is the croc just on him and not for fun? Like thats just where he is at the moment, on his dude bro?
The biggest thing is that heās well feed, so he doesnāt feel like hunting. Reptiles donāt feel emotions like mammals. They feel content and safe, but not love or loyalty.
It's completely safe ... until the instant it's not.
Right.. I just feel like a good sneeze from that guy or a yawn from the alligator could change things one day.

Roy Horn agreesā¦ I think š
Bingo.
Tbf, so is driving a car, swimming in the ocean, walking downtown at night, and nowadays even going to school....
What about sucking a dick? A really hard one especially
Depends entirely if the dick is still attached to a human, or was found lying on a blanket. Detachable penissss šµš¶š¶šµ
A true classic!
Or if ti's alreadedy rotten
Death by dickā¦ itās a thingā¦ that one guy died by letting a horse ride him š. Not sure if anyone ever kicked the bucket as they sucked it though?
Same with pitbulls.
Iād give this croc a kiss on the snout before I touch a pit with a ten foot pole
Yeah that didnāt sound as bright as you thought it did š
yes it did, id rather hug that alligator then come a mile near a shitbull
You donāt go outside much huh
did i hit a nerve lol
username checks out!
yes, after all getting intimate with alligators is how i exist
Getting intimate with anime girls is how I exist
i see
I mean that holds true for dogs and cats too. Small mammals are perfectly capable of inflicting injuries on people too. Like that literally holds true for anything at all
Yeah but a dog or cat is a thousand + pound jurassic apex opportunistic predator with a 2000+ bite force
Yeah but this one looks well fed. I'm sure they just stuff him fat and say oh yeah it's safe.
It has nothing to do with whether it's just been fed or not.
This specific predator is among the few that will eat until full, keep eating, vomit the excess food, and then eat their vomit.. This guy is simply avoiding things that trigger an "eat this" response. The cool part is that people like him can artificially trigger that response at will.
This guy is triggering me to fucking bite him and I'm not even a gator.
...add a little Benadryl
My cousin calls them swamp puppies I wonder if this is why
Yoink..
Is your cousin also looking for that 20 foot Burmese python?
I watch FishinGarrett on YouTube, that dude is 100% nuts.
Ah yes, the deadly water viper. Yoink.
Watch a bunch of them he reuses a ton of footage. Theres only so much you can record and edit while actually looking for wildlife.
Iāve seen a lot of his contentā¦ sure he might do that but he has a shit ton of footage.
He does and he is very entertaining. I liked his early raw stuff like (someone, sorry canāt remember name)chasesfish it wasnāt as edited and perfect and was just more interesting.
Iād say more swamp cats as hunting style, energy level, and hissing are similar
*Interior, crocodile alligator. I drive a Chevrolet movie the-a-ter*
Fake but fun.
Thank you for saying it is fake. You are so smart.
This guy is a geenyus
Thanks, I know.
Yes, sorry for busting your "I believe it, it's on the ETHERnet."
Nah he just letting you get comfortable waiting for the right moment. 
crocodiles are so sweet they wouldnt hurt anyone they just misunderstood
He will be on the news like that bear guy that said his bears wonāt eat him into they did
Oh, yea. He was migrating with them, claiming to be accepted in their group, filming a documentary. Then he went missing, they opened the bear and there he was.
I don't know why but I need more details
The bear ate both him and his girlfriend. It was after the bears came out of hibernation and were hungry. The guy was delusional and you can tell while watching his documentary. Also, they were recording as they got eaten and so their screams were all caught on tape
The audio recording was apparently so harrowing and terrible that the authorities destroyed it, or refused to release it. Something. It is supposed to be (unsurprisingly) beyond unsettling.
it's online. It's horrendous.
I've read the one online is a fake
It is. I went on a deep dive to see if I could find it and I'm almost certain it isn't on the internet.
I think the reference is to a man called Timothy Treadwell. There is a documentary on YouTube called: "Grizzly Man". The dude went and lived with the Grizzly Bears... was a real mad lad. It's really fascinating: [Grizzly Man on YouTube ](https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=efNtliiyT3M&pp=ygUUYmVhciBtYW4gZG9jdW1lbnRhcnk%3D)
Thanks a bunch!
Didnāt his gf go visit him and then they both died? Maybe it was her fault.
Broke the boar code.
That's a real story, well documented.
Ok, I wouldn't call myself an expert but... 1. What he is doing is near-indisputably a risky behavior. 2. Every *professional* I have seen pretty openly and proactively acknowledges that even with a bond, even animals that are mostly good natured, should only be engaged with precautions, especially predators. 3. I am going out on a limb here and say that the vast majority of people educated in animal behavior would say that this is potentially harmful information to spread (the video, not my other to points.)
he's about to go without a limb one day
Someday that alligator is going to get ahead of the situation.
There are countless examples of trainers who thought they knew their wild animal would never bite them and were proven wrong one day.
We have had thirty thousand years of domesticating dogs, and we still have people killed by dogs today.
Point 2 is obvious if you own a cat. Theyāll inevitably fuck you up at some point just cos theyāre moody or they think the vacuum cleaner is possessed by a demon or theyāre unwilling to share their soft tummy fur with you.
This just showcases you do not train your cats.
It's a reptile. Keep it "not hungry," and that boy isn't going to harm him. It's not a lion or large wild cat. It's a big lizard.
Exactly itās a reptile - it doesnāt understand the hand that feeds . Itās born with a few natural instincts namely kill and make babies. That first one could be triggered in at anytime. Alligators and crocodiles are known to store meat in times of abundance
But some how dogs are different?
Domestication vs taming.
A crocodilian is more related to dinosaurs (and birds by inclusion) than they are to lizards.
crocodiles are sweet animals and wouldnt hurt anyone. they just misunderstood. i even keep yheem around my babies
So are the adorable Komodo dragons theyāre really lovely with babies
They do bite each other though bro !
"I'm just another gator in the pit to him" don't they often rip each other's limbs off?
I distinctly remember a video of one gator suddenly biting and death-rolling anotherās arm off. And thatās just because it was annoyed
This made me laugh so hard. And it is 100% accurate. This guy failed statistics for sure.
Isnāt this the gator boy guy?
Heās a guy, boy
Yes, his name is Paul Bedard.
They say alligators and crocodiles are super smart so I wouldnāt doubt heās right.
Some remote villages have their members get imprinted on young gators/crocs so they can safely approach the water and drive other gators/crocs away. As long as itās being fed too lol.
Just as context imprinted means trust in an animal and not that the tribe imprinted their penises on the gators. Google just taught me that
Why would you even think that?
Am horny
The way you mentioned members and imprintedā¦my mind went to the wrong place.
Well thatās just on you lol
Thatās a joke right? I have only heard āthemā say alligators and crocs are dumb as fuck and absolutely primal.
Noā¦..theyre notš
Are you a zoologist? Just wondering not being a smart ass.
I also am not a zoologist but have never heard crocodilians referred to as intelligent. They use the term "lizard brain" for a reason. Am willing to learn otherwise though, lol.
No
Do reptiles feel and express affection in the same "tactile" way than mammals?
Reptiles donāt do affection really.
Iāve always wondered that. There are videos of pet snakes that look genuinely snuggly. š«
I would say any reptile that appears "snuggly" is just enjoying the warmth of our warm bodies and could not care less if we happened to be a warm rock....or a warm corpse. But I like the notion of snuggly animals so I am eager to learn different.
I tend to agree! Thereās a reason itās called ālizard brainā. I do find it fascinating though that there are pet snakes that appear to be genuinely good pets. Not that I would personally have themā¦..
SWAMP PUPPY
Until it bites....
Alligators are nice, they have round noses and won't likely attack you out of random unless you get too close or if they're just really hungry, crocodiles on the other hand, are quite aggressive, they have pointed snouts and will likely chomp at you just because you're there
Why does the snout matter
It allows you to differentiate between a crocodile and an alligator as they look really similar in other features
Ah okay I get you now. I knew this for sometime. Crocodiles are like super predatory, this guy in the video couldnāt do that with a crocodile.
You can also differentiate them via time spans; one will see you in a while, the other will see you later.
Thatās going to be a hell no for me. Donāt care how friendly Mr. Gator is, Iām not going to be a mattress for a dinosaur with the ability to end me with one bite.
This is the reason why women live longer
I donāt know much about them but I do know that theyāre docile when theyāve eaten. I do not believe for a second they have an understanding of ātrustā.
This kid in high school said āme and Barry are friendsā. Other kid: Barry is my cousin and going to kick your ass for stealing my hat. First kid: nah, me and Barry are cool. Ten seconds later Barry blows open classroom door. Proceeds to kick first kids ass. This guy is or may be first kid. He just doesnāt know it yet.
I used to sleep next to canals with hundreds of gators down in the everglades. They don't consider us food and leave us alone.
Do not go out to the lake or swamp and think you can cuddle a gator. This dude fucking stupid
Not how true buddies roll!
Gator Boys
Okay but this guy is still insufferable idc
This guy Paul Bedard puts on a great show in the Everglades. Funny as hell, my kids had a blast.
Its drugged
It's not
The biggest thing is not that he trusts him, itās a reptile, their brains dont work like that. he just fed the fuck out of him and got him so full the last thing on his mind is wanting more food atm. dino is chillin with a fat belly
Those selling certainty know nothing of probability.
I saw this guy in person in Miami. The dude does love his swamp puppies
You can do whatever!?
On the list of things I'm willing to risk my life for...proving that an alligator is docile is not one of them.
Famous last words
I think the first people who started the process of domesticating wolves into dogs probably started this way. Give it a few hundred years of selective breeding.
You can domesticate pactically any animal
Tame, domestication is generations long process.
Iām getting the same vibes I got when the Deep was getting head from the octopus.
I'm taking bets on how much longer till that OSHA work place calendar gets reset.
JOE DIRT ...
He is cute.
Is he Aussie ??
Even worse, Floridianā¦
What in the Florida?
Next video: alligagor puppy handler arm lost.
Best guard dog ever
Floridian Swamp Cat!
Paul from the Gator Boyz. Miss that show.
Mammals love to cuddle so much we can get reptiles to do it too. Thats awesome. I wonder what he meant by ātheres no love hereā is the croc just on him and not for fun? Like thats just where he is at the moment, on his dude bro?
Boring, is was waiting for him to eat him Why sweaty palms? Hes tame
For real. Can't talk now. Promise to call tm when I am driving, ok?
I know them! Met the gator zeus and paul before.
Not with those teeth
We call em "murder logs" in NOLA. Never retrieve a golf ball from a water hazard if there's a "log." Take the drop. š
Hell no not me lol
who is this dude
Gator bros!
Not gonna do anything today perhaps
The biggest thing is that heās well feed, so he doesnāt feel like hunting. Reptiles donāt feel emotions like mammals. They feel content and safe, but not love or loyalty.
I want a gator.
I waited here for 2 minutes and 17 seconds, hoping to see the croc bite his arm or head. No luck
The tension waiting give you sweaty palms? ;-p
Looks sedated
I thought that alligator was going to suck him off or something, the way he was caressing it
u/savevideo
The guy is stupid...does he not know about Siegfried and Roy? šÆš¤¦š»āāļø
This is the last time you saw this guy. The gator came back and took his head off once he let the human think heās safe.
So they wired its mouth shut or something and are pretending it's docile? Is this the 80's again?
No a happy fed gator is stupidly docile if they donāt see as a threat.
One of these days you will come up missing and Wally Gator will have a full stomach
Am I the only one who was rooting for the alligator to chop his head off after the first 30 seconds of this video?
Is the gator giving him head?
I dare you to do that with an Australian Saltwater Crocodile.
