A shocking video recorded in Everglades, Florida shows an alligator going up in smoke after eating up a drone he mistook for food.
The video, shared on TikTok by user Devhlhanger shows George the alligator catching and chewing up a drone, trying to swallow it and eventually causing it to erupt in smoke while in its jaws.
The original video was shared on August 22 and is cut into two parts.

A few days later, the TikToker shared a compilation of the clips:
“Here is the alligator eating the drone combined. George is doing fine and still looked hungry after.”
“We were trying to get a close up of the gator with its mouth open and thought the obstacle avoidance would make the drone fly away,” Devhlhanger wrote in the text attached to the video, adding: “Was only our second time using the spark.”
Obstacle avoidance is a drone function that makes it move around objects without being ordered to do so.
As the drone flew above the beast, a person can be heard questioning whether it thinks the drone is food.
And just a few moments later, the drone was captured and eaten, prompting it to explode…
