He isn’t really thinking of jumping in the water in the second picture, is he?

 
 
 
that's an alligator

Taxonomy fail!

How can you tell?

 
 
Homer

Not a fail. If there was a third picture with the guy getting eaten, that would be a fail. This is a WIN.

qwerty

JAJAJAJaJAJAJA

Yeah, Right!!!

Photoshop–no wait, this happened in my town.

This happens pretty much anywhere stupid people live alongside crocodilians, or in other words, anywhere crocodilians live. (Crocodilians being alligators, crocodiles, gavials, caimans, etc.) A kid I went to high school with was killed by an alligator when he went swimming in an area where they were known to be quite abundant — surely worthy of a Darwin Award. But I’ve heard tales even more stupid, such as people putting their small children next to an alligator because it would make “such a cute picture!”

I believe the earlier commenter is correct about the taxonomy fail. The snout seems more rounded than pointed, suggesting alligator, and crocodiles tend to be more brownish than this guy. But without more info or a better picture, I’m not putting money on it.

Generally, though, crocodiles are more aggressive than alligators, especially when it comes to humans. I’d say that taunting a crocodile is inherently a fail, thus the title of this entry is quite redundant.

(Yes, I grew up in Florida at a time when every neighborhood had an alligator that was named and fed regularly, and as an alumnus of the University of Florida, I am a Gator myself.)

This is definitely a crocodile. It happened recently in the Northern Territory, Australia. http://www.ntnews.com.au/article/2008/03/05/3522_ntnews.html

Tourist guides train crocodiles to jump for food in this area (and they can jump an awful lot higher than this photo) - the bloke was pretty lucky it wasn’t worse.

MarkFL

That’s all the info I need — alligators are not native to Australia.

Subtle Fail:
Star of David tattoo

Verisimilitude

No, I think that would be Anti-Semitism fail.

 
 
 
KNM

you suck. there is no fail about that…

MarkFL

Strictly speaking, tattoos and body piercing are against Jewish tradition, (yeah, I know, so is eating pork or cheeseburgers), so if the guy identifies as Jewish, it’s definitely some sort of fail. How about Talmud Fail?

 
 
 
felix

i saw that picture months ago in a german newsmagazine. that guy is from isreal (surprise) und the picture is taken in australia (if i remember right), by his friend. the column is called: “what did you think in this moment, mr. [put name here]?”

kafleenthedonkey

From the looks of him, he has gotten away before..

elayne

That’s what I thought too, then someone pointed out the Star of David tattoo: Could that stuff that looks like scar tissue on his left arm and shoulder be tattoos? Wish I could see that bit closer…

 
 
Stuff White Parents Like

What a wuss. I mean, it’s only a crocodile with really big teeth for chrissake.

 
Verisimilitude

Tourist: Oh look, a crocodile!

Crocodile: Oh look, lunch!

 
 
Ralf

That’s true, he’s still alive.

titaniumspork19

Bob

I remember that photo, the NT news published it on the front page of the newspaper, then distributed it as a postcard the next day as well.

 
Cellie

the gator says: “rawr i r gator”

Questionable?

This is a Crocodile fail not an aligator fail.

Ahahaha I remember seeing this picture in the papers.
