Simple. They grab you by the leg and drag you in, rolling all the while. We call that the "death roll" and they aren't dying, you are. You'll be dead in just a few minutes, from a combination of shock, disbelief, and being underwater. Then, he drags you under a log and leaves you until you decompose enough that he can tear off chunks.<br /><br />Gators are dangerous, and I'm not sure how close you got to him, but the last two that got close to me in a non-zoo environment took a bullet at the base o the skull.Pawpawhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14959820068377494313noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-20147126.post-18532910438500903422016-07-06T09:23:18.439-05:002016-07-06T09:23:18.439-05:00Ummm, yeah, he might bite your other leg or even o...Ummm, yeah, he might bite your other leg or even one of the pups!<br /><br />That's kind of sad that he is fed so much that he thinks it's okay to dock surf.
