Woman Throws Shoes At Florida Gator— But The Gator Gets The Last Laugh

July 31, 2025

While vacationing in Kissimmee, Florida, Sarah Louise Martin from Gravesend, UK, was enjoying a peaceful morning and filming a small alligator near a group of deer. But what started as a calm wildlife moment quickly turned into a hilarious twist of fate.

In the now-viral TikTok video, Martin greets viewers with a cheerful “good morning” and points out the gator. But then, her neighbor—apparently not thrilled with the scaly visitor—decides to take matters into her own hands. She tosses her shoes in the gator’s direction, hoping to scare it off.

It almost worked — until she tossed her shoes a second time. That’s when the alligator delivered a dose of hilarious (and completely harmless) revenge.
