Couple Hand Feeds Sandwiches To Gators In FL Waters

SOUTH FLORIDA — A man and a woman were filmed hand feeding gators what appears to be sandwiches in Florida waters.

The video, originally shared by Only in Florida on Instagram, can be viewed here.

“Florida man is gonna Florida man,” the video’s caption reads.

It’s accompanied by emojis of a shrugging person and a gator.

Only in Florida didn’t specify where exactly the video was filmed, but the post includes the hashtags #FloridaEverglades and #SouthFlorida.

In the video, a man with a goatee wearing a white tank top, a white hat and sunglasses and a woman in a red tank top are chest deep in the water.

The woman is holding what looks like two sandwiches, breaking off pieces for the man to feed the gators.

At least two gators are seen in the video.

The man holds out the sandwich and calls one of the gators out for a bite to eat. Then, he gently taps the gator on the chin to encourage it to swim away.

He then throws another piece of the sandwich away from him, close to the two gators, who dive underwater to find the snack.

There’s at least one person on the bank filming the feeding session.

And though it's hard to make out what everyone in the video is saying, there’s a mention of “pork loins” at one point.
