Hi Alfred,
Unbelievable.............you would have had one heck of a shot if the family did pay attention! What was he thinking???
Alfred. Nice action PJ. This reminds me of my first trip to the Anhinga trail, back in 1986. Back then there was only a small rope fence between part of the sidewalk and the grass where the gators were sunning. I haven't visited recently. Anyway, a foreign "tourist" stepped over the rope with his P&S camera for a closeup. We were quick to bark at him to get out of there! And he did, but he wasn't happy about it. We told him the danger that he had been in and that the gator "a 7 footer" could have grabbed him and pulled him into the water! His reply was "Well, if they are dangerous, then why are they here?" WOW. I still haven't gotten over that one!

Looks like some of those people have lower IQ than age Dan !!!
Roman I was sort of hoping for some action :eek::D:D:D:)
As usual your timing was right on Alfred. I still wonderf at the mentally of some of the tourists. They just don't get it. Especially parents with young childfren !!!!! Glad he was rescued.
Great capture Al,
What people will do to get a shot!!!:eek: Hey, why don't we pool together and collect a series of bloopers and title them just like that; Maybe we can publish a book...:p
At least it wasn't his CAMERA!
