I had this very, very vivid memory of having been at a park and another child having been attacked by an alligator. I called my brother

I was like did this actually happen I was four years old I remember all he's like no no

we were at the park there were alligators and they were out of the water and we were just

terrified of them my dad would take me out and we used to go canal fishing near my house and they would just kind of be sitting there and we're fishing

with nets and just pulling up whatever and like trying not to catch the

smaller gators that might be swimming through chasing the fish we were fishing.

Dads being dads be like you're fine just stand on the other side of me.

It's okay I'll keep an eye on it you watch the fish.

It's like all right dad. Living Florida, seeing gators all the time,

living near the ocean, seeing sharks all the time,

like, it just stuck.

I have just like overriding fear when I'm hanging out in you know country that has big apex predators.
