Seems like he straddled the gator, and threw the sweater across the gator's eyes.

Do a Google search for "ABC News aliigator attack" and you can see the interview of Fred Boyce.

CAUTION - about 2/3 of the way into the interview, they show his wounds.

Looked to me like self defense on the gator's part. I have no idea what that guy was thinking.

Maybe the sweater was a hoodie in disguise? Gotta call Heraldo.

Didn't have to wait for it - you didn't hit the "enter" key enough times

Anything to edge closer to 10K..........

What a bone head. This man was as lucky as anyone could be. If the gator would have followed up, this guy would have be missing his arm, if not his life. What was he going to do, should his sweater trick work? Should he have pulled off this elfated and poorly planed (ya'll watch this,somebody hold my beer) and pinned the gator. How in the world did he think he was going to get back off the gator? You must remember, his whole plan hinged on the sweater trick.
