@abc30_actionnews: A Florida tour guide who is definitely used to alligators gave his clients some perfect shots when he lured one over to their boat and even got it to “smile”. Video here, from Scottish tourist Eve Wishart, shows the man luring the alligator over, and telling it to smile. He even leans over to pat the gator’s snout, prompting it to open its jaws wide. Wishart said she joined the expedition in the Florida Everglades, and told Storyful she was “amazed and nervous watching it happen.”
what happens if the tour guide gets his arm ripped off?

Floridian here. This is actually pretty common with tour guides in the Everglades. The tourists eat it up and there is essentially no danger. Gators don’t want to fight humans. As long as you aren’t hurting them or scaring them they are quite docile.

Having done an Everglades tour myself, I can concur that those guys have NO fear of reptiles.
