Shoe-in for a Darwin award.

Improving the breed.  Gotta love it.

I saw this. Apparently, he said, "Fuck the alligators," before he jumps in.

That's one of those phrases that if you utter it, chances are it's the last thing you say.

I figured it was "Hold my beer and watch this".

This makes me like alligators.  I had no strong feelings about them before, but now I really like them.

That's a good one, but "Fuck the alligators" is on a whole different level. It's up there with "That biker looks like a pussy."
