Alligator_Attack_39055.jpg

Will Georgitis stands with a collection of fossils he found over the years, was recently attacked by an alligator while out scuba diving in the Cooper River looking for megalodon teeth and other unique items, Friday, April 19, 2024, in West Ashley, S.C. Pinned by an alligator on April 15, to the bottom of the river, Georgitis decided his only chance to survive might be to lose his arm, but he told The Post and Courier he put his feet on the gator and pushed as hard as he could. Somehow he ripped his arm out of the alligator's jaws. (Andrew J. Whitaker/The Post And Courier via AP)
