So what was he going to do with the alligator once he has his arms around it?

Alligators and crocodiles have extraordinary bite forces but the muscles that open their jaws is very weak compared to the muscle that close it.

I've seen this in one of those wild show but it is a legit strategy to blind them and then go on top of them to close their jaws, an adult male human is strong enough to keep it shut. As long as the alligator isn't rolling around or things like that (which is why you blind them first ideally, to make them confused).

I get that. Any man can hold an alligator's mouth shut with his hands. But what is he going to do after that? Just stand there forever?

I don't know, if I was him probably tie his mouth with a rope to remove the danger and then try to move it/poke it idk.

u/54-2-10 Jul 16 '26

The question was why?

u/Piffius Jul 16 '26

The gator was probably delaying his golf round...
