Massive alligator surprises guests on boat tour in hilarious video
A hilarious, wild video showing an alligator surprising guests on a boat tour is making the rounds on social media.
Camille Lease, who took the viral video, said it happened while she and her mother were taking a tour of the bayou with Arthur’s Airboat Tours in Des Allemands, Louisiana.
According to Lease, the tour guide knew the 12-foot alligator named Brutus was going to make a surprise guest appearance, but she and her mom had no idea.
"It's at your feet," the guide is heard telling the two as Brutus stuck his head out of the water and onto the boat.
