http://www.charleston.net/news/2007/...igators_belly/ - my dad has an RV that is on the water at this lake that he goes up to pretty much every weekend during the summer... scary.

 

wow thats crazy, they salvaged the whole arm from the alligator stomach

 

yup, if you haven't looked... in the pics (after you click through the warnings) you can see the gator in the water w/ the guy's arm in his mouth.

 

woa i didnt even look at those. Thats awesome. I wonder why the alligator is just holding it there

 

he's taunting the guy - "haha, need a hand?"

 

That guy isvery lucky he got his arm back, if they could save it.

 

that is some crazy ****...but honestly you have to be such a dumbass..im a northerner myself but i think this is a dumb yankee that goes swimming in the lake in the south and doesnt think of alligators..wtf..its not like the north bud where a damb blue gill is the most you gotta worry about..the south is crazy..

 

gator's are pretty common here.i've personally seen 2 or 3 gators in that lake myself and would not go swimming in ANY swampy parts or even get out of my boat lol

 

where are you at..do you live at that lake??if so thats crazy i guess but at the same time you really cant be afraid to get in the water..

 

exactly. i've been swimming, tubing, wave running etc in that lake dozens of times. gators normally stick to the edge of the water so if the guy was swimming at the edge than he's an idiot. i live about 20 mins from that lake, 30 mins from the place he was attacked b/c it's on the clear other side of the lake near a place called "Short Stay" it's a millitary retreat location.
