There were "No swimming" signs at the scene, Demings said.
Seems pretty Phucking obvious to me. Just like the idiot that got acidified by the Gieser. Warnings signs everywhere but fuk it, I'm gonna go in anyway.

BRB building a fence around every body of water in Florida. Ayy lmao. I'm guessing you have never been to FL. Literally water everywhere, even mainland. They ALL have gators in em.



Best idea ITT.
not everywhere. Just inside resorts. Especially ones advertised as beaches, like this one was.

You leave the resort, you're on your own. On the resort, we'll keep you safe. That is common sense.

Remember this is a pretty nice resort in a lake with fountains. It's reasonable to think the no swimming sign can be interpreted as we don't want a bunch of people in our nice lake rather than no swimming for your own safety.

Granted even with that perspective they were technically breaking the rules, as the kid had his feet in the water, but you can see how something like this can be misinterpreted, especially from someone from Nebraska.



Also lol at anyone who thinks the two year old won't be up and out during vacation at 9:30 on movie night. I know most of you don't leave your parents homes, let alone go on vacations, but that's not even sort of a big deal or bad parenting
You're obviously the same kind of moron breed that the parents are.

It's Florida. There are alligators in it.

This wasn't a swimming pool. Alligators find bodies of fresh water in live in them, then they eat things that come to the edge, the way nature intended. Parents were not thinking.

Alligators are the real-life version of the Misc meme about pitbulls: once they lock their jaws, it's all over.

Almost no power to open their jaws. Keeping their jaw closed is how alligator wrestlers do it. Once they've got their jaws on you, forget it. Their skin is essentially armor. You're not likely going to hurt them and you're not going to overpower them, and you're certainly not likely going to convince them to let go of food. Dad's only chance might have been to claw at the eyeballs and try to blind it to freak it out and confuse it, but I doubt the baby would come out of it without life-threatening injuries either way.
Nah, fukk that. I’m not doing that.

You would think that a guy who goes by "SoutheastBeast" would be aware that alligators are a thing that exist and that the park doesn't have control over them.

It's like going to Arizona and being outraged that they haven't called out an exterminator to rid nature of rattlesnakes and scorpions.
Nah, fukk that. I’m not doing that.

On my next trip to shark infested waters I'm going to go for a swim, if there aren't any signs that indicate specifically that I would be in danger of being attacked, or killed by the sharks, then surely it's A-ok! Also there are no signs on that wasp nest I saw at the park the other day, think I'll stick my hand in there and shake it around a bit hehe.

I heard there were at least four gators involved. One was holding the door shut while the father was trying to get his kid out.

Also, I heard that it didn't actually have contact with ISIS: it self-radicalized by reading what it found on the internet.

It may have a Misc account, too.
Nah, fukk that. I’m not doing that.

Right, it was so obvious, how could they miss it. What on earth would possess them to go near there!

I don't see anything about that that says "this water is recommended for wading and swimming".

Especially not for the bite-sized.

Not every place is paved over and fenced off. I can understand being naive as a visitor, but if it's clearly marked "don't do that", you don't really need graphical illustrations of why. Just don't do it.
Nah, fukk that. I’m not doing that.

The safety is implied by the resort owner, who built a BEACH there.

google image search of 7foot gator

Those jaws close with thousands of pounds of force, you couldnt deadlift them open on land forgetting the fact they were in water, and their skin is leather thick like armor, the punches are gonna roll off it. keep in mind the kid is probably drowning during this whole struggle

This isn't Toronto. It was posted not to swim, and probably for this very reason.

You're delusional if you believe resort owners can keep alligators out of the water. There is approximately one alligator for every ten people in the state and they travel freely between lakes. There isn't some alligator death squad touring the state by chopper to stop them, and the lagoon is huge, it's obviously unrealistic to expect the entire shore to be controlled at all times.

They have swimming pools inside the resort complex that are monitored and controlled. The lagoon is just to look at, not to get eaten in.
Nah, fukk that. I’m not doing that.

Then simply restrict access to the area with a gate. Have very clear signage about the dangers of natural predators and by crossing this gate you acknowledge these dangers.

Resort owner is responsible for this.
