Fuck every bit of that. One more reason to stay out of Florida, as if I didn't already have enough reasons.

Not sure I'd want to be that close taking video of it.

I'm sure you could out run that thing.

I'm sure you could out run that thing.

The maximum speed for a sprinting human is around 20 miles per hour, and most reasonably fit humans can exceed 10 mph for a short distance. It's possible that some small alligators might get as high as 25 mph for a short burst, but large alligators generally can't get above 7-8 mph.

I've always heard that if you run zig-zag, they can't adjust direction fast enough to keep up. HA! Fuck that! I'm running straight and doing some crazy jump in the air shit like it's trying to nip my heels.

i've heard big gators dont like the smell of poop . i got this no problem . he'll be running through a trail of shit .

No need for all that. Just push down the closest person to you.

It's my same strat for an active shooter situation.

Same with any other animal attack scenarios too. I don't have to be faster than the animal, I just need to be faster than everyone else in my group!

Only have fat friends. Good strategy.

Can not actually tell how big that gator is really. ....those guys were too much of pussies to go put a dr pepper can on its back for size comparison.

Gator's size has been estimated (by the golf course crew) at 16.5+ feet in length.
