- polyGone, on 10/12/2007, -3/+127I vote this for best title. :)
- Arcadian, on 10/12/2007, -1/+43Alligators: My anti-drug
- 42nnn, on 10/12/2007, -4/+38Flordia, America's Wang!
- dagnabbit, on 10/12/2007, -9/+27I thought from the title that the croc bit him on the ass. Maybe that's just me.
- NewChar, on 10/12/2007, -1/+16Agreed, easily the best title ever on Digg.
- TheBarge, on 10/12/2007, -0/+12And here it is... click the "911 call" audio link:

(contains full curse words, so may not be SFW if you don't use headphones) - PlasmaMartini, on 10/12/2007, -2/+13I don't know whats funnier, the crocodile or the fact that he is on crack
- spyrochaete, on 10/12/2007, -4/+15Is it too late to suggest an alternative title?
Croc on Rock by Proxy - dmoney22, on 10/12/2007, -2/+10I had the sneaking suspicion that this happened where I live, low and behold it did.
- portwojc, on 10/12/2007, -0/+7That gator was in for another surprise: Reminded me of Futurama
Lrrr: People of Earth- Oh, that hippie's starting to kick in. we've all learned a valuable lesson today. I realize now that- Dude! My hand are huge! They can touch anything but themselves. (He puts his hands together) Oh, wait - nickbender, on 10/12/2007, -1/+8didn't even read the article... but the headline alone is a+
- CiXeL, on 10/12/2007, -1/+8i dont know what it is but im in homestead (south florida) and it seems the attacks almost always happen in central florida. i think theyre not as well fed or something. down here by everglades natl park gators can turn their head and bite down and get a fish. the water looks like a fishery in the winter. that and the fan boat ride people feed them (which is illegal but they do it under the auspices of "feeding the fish" oh and surprise! gators just happen to show up!)
here they have a bike trail called shark valley (which has no sharks and isnt a valley) but you can bike and see simply MASSIVE bull gators that seem like dinosaurs. very popular tourist spot and people get within a few feet of them and nothing ever happens. with how close the tourists get to gators here if this was central florida youd expect a blood bath but it simply doesnt happen because theres so much food for them already. if you get too close they usually just grunt at you to tell you to back off. - btgoss, on 10/12/2007, -3/+9Title makes it seem like the Gator was on crack... and we all know what kind of zealots those Gator are... no drinking or drugs for those Gators... unless they play football or basketball.
- dshPls, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7when crazy ***** happens, you can bet it's either Florida, or germany!
- BullTaco, on 10/12/2007, -1/+7I was voted most likely to get eaten by an alligator while naked and high on crack back in high school.
- jlachesk, on 10/12/2007, -2/+8Actually that's really not that funny, most people don't. I'd say the humor in that pales in comparison to a cracked out naked guy getting attacked by a reptile of any sort. But hey, to each his own.
- elitexero, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5That's hilarious! Best.Title.Ever.
- astrotrain, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4Croc + Cocane = "Crocodile Rock"....
- msisaac, on 10/12/2007, -3/+7This is why I don't do crack. Every time you use crack, an alligator will rip your arm off. At least that's what the Just Say No people told me...
- Leadhyena, on 10/12/2007, -0/+4South Park speaks the truth: take any 5 random words and you have a Family Guy skit, which is what I thought this was until I saw the article.
Naked, Crack, Alligator, Florida, Schoolbus
How bizarre. - TheBarge, on 10/12/2007, -1/+5@nofxjunkee
Yeah no kidding. The guy who called 911 wasn't going anywhere near the guy. The guy in the water yelled to him and must have asked him to jump in and save him or something because he responded with "F**** you I ain't goin' over there!" - MikeUnwired, on 10/12/2007, -1/+4"...as big as a school bus." Is that the regular school bus of the short bus this guy rode to school when he was young?
After reading the report, I figure this guy will sue the police for pulling on his injured arms. Never mind the fact that it was the only way to save him. - TomP, on 10/12/2007, -0/+3The guy probably climbed inside.
- matthewaaron, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3No, it's just implied because he was naked near a Gator...
- Shroomie, on 10/12/2007, -2/+4Only in Florida.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3Yes it did. At least up here in Canada on CBC News. I'm not even sure why we even bothered to cover the story, probably because Canadian news is so boring.
- mousy, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3I'm glad this isn't in the videos section.
- inactive, on 10/12/2007, -0/+2He's dead you insensitive clod.
- eddie72, on 10/12/2007, -1/+3Crack kills.
- mynameistim, on 10/12/2007, -2/+4"which brings me to my next point: don't smoke crack!"
-LT - Loftonian, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2Now remember kids, don't do drugs! Because if you do, Gatey the 12 foot Gator is gonna take a bite out of crime... And by crime I mean your ass.
- superconnected, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1To quote Rick James: Cocaine is a hell of a drug.
- nofxjunkee, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2I'm just glad that no one was hurt saving this guy. Don't get me wrong, I think saving him was the right thing to do, but IMO it would be very sad to have seen a cop get injured while saving a crackhead.
disclaimer: i believe in the crackhead's right to mess up his life with drugs. i don't believe that crackheads deserve to die or anything like that, BUT I would much rather see a cop walking down the street behind me late at night than a crackhead. - merdiesel, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2I could see this guy doing those Anti-drug speeches at high schools after this, talking about his drug addiction and his run in with the crocs...
- fleabomber, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2Kids, ya'll lookin' at a dead man. I should not be in front of you today! Drugs and alchohol have ruined my life.
- Pattyo13, on 05/14/2009, -0/+1i saw this in the rss feed and was dissapointed when i opened the digg link to see it was not posted in the videos section
- PRlME, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1If the Gator ate the guy would the gator also be high on crack cocaine?
- umdigger, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1Why not just let the gator have a meal? One less crack head on the streets. Survival of the fittest.
- mtwoar, on 10/12/2007, -1/+2He should have burned the gators eyes out with his crack pipe.
- rushpage, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1He's not lucky. The cops are just good.
- zeiben, on 10/12/2007, -0/+1An attack on his crack. That had to be unpleasant for all concerned...
- ladymadonna, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Proof that thinning of the herd can be a good thing.....this guy is lucky to still be in the gene pool.
- vguard, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1The cop said they saved they guy because he was a human being that need help. Frankly, I find it encouraging to see cops acting decently towards ordinary humans. Even more so, because this guy is somebody who most people would probably write off as not worth the effort.
(Don't get me wrong, though. The guy they saved is an idiot. Wandering around naked and high as a kite in gator country, is pretty much asking for Mother Nature to bitch slap you.) - spyrochaete, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Kevin Rose is a manatee
- CedEx, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Because spiking the gator's food with crack is called Animal Cruelty.
- Gryffydd, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1This is a floridian....
...This is a floridian on crack. - inactive, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1ONLY
IN
AMERICA. - jayj, on 10/12/2007, -0/+0Solid proof that natural selection is working!
- dep01, on 10/12/2007, -1/+1Am I the only one that's disappointed that there is no video?
- InferiorWang, on 10/12/2007, -1/+0The only reason I clicked on it was to see if the alligator bit him in the crack, he was on crack, or the gator was on crack. What a title!
