The SCARiest part of that whole deal was the amount of racism from our fellow neighbours down south. Not suprising, just disturbing. Gotta love the yanks (not).

I can’t speak Chinese of whatever language he was yackin in, but I am pretty sure he was explaining the trigger mechanism. When he was hitting the bottom jaw with the stick he was explaining that if you do not touch the inside, it will not snap. Then demonstrated that same thing by slapping it on top of the mouth. Then he explained he can run his hand inside the mouth as long as nothing touches the trigger, but unfortunately he either brushed the tongue or some water or sweat dripped and sprung the trigger. The corc has a very different biting mechanism then our alligators. An alligator tends to kill smaller prey and swallow it whole. Its teeth and reflex is geared to that. Crocs kill larger prey and rip it into smaller pieces to eat, therefor, they have teeth designed to rip and the “death roll” reflex. If that was a gator, he may have kept his arm, as it was..I am sure lost it.

I looked to see if anyone had posted this before I did. I got it couple weeks ago, but just now got time to upload it. If someone else posted it, it never got any attention. Sorry for being redundant.

Did I miss something? Where have you read anything that has to do with racism on this thread? As far as I know, no one has made ANY comment on the the nationality of the man in the video.

He could've been my next door neighbor and I would have thought the exactly the same of his stupidity.

Get a clue. I wasn't talking about anyone HERE. Look at the comments on the LINK for the video and you'll see what I'm talking about.

Thanks for coming out.

Geez Jeff, cool off man. I had no idea of another link. You sounded very hostile and I read your entry thinking you were refering to comments on this thread. My mistake.

I HATE racism and ANYthing to do with bigotry. I got upset when I read your post. Just don't believe that everyone "down south" are yankee racists. That would be ignorance on your part.

Another example of --you never know exactly where people are coming from when you read their words on these forums--. Everyone deciphers things very differently.

I have immediate family that lives in the US, so no, I don't think that everyone down there are yankee racists.

Yeah that is unfortuante. The other day someone driving by my house yelled totally racist comments to an old lady walking down the street.

I hope their car wasn't racist towards the color blue because that's the color gatorade that end up all over it. It fell out of my hand.

But jokes aside, it really upset me. I am not one to confront people normally but I was so angry at their attitude I just had to.

One thing i've learned in my time on the planet Earth...

Stupidity trancends all racial, religious, sexual and pretty much any other line you can think of

I'm sorry, only job he could get or not that's a just plain stupid thing to do. I'm all for taking calculated risks to have some fun but damn, I'd need a whole lot more than a few bucks to give that a try.
