GIANT ALLIGATOR ON GOLF COURSE – real or fake?


This week is just going to be “Big Week” because everything you guys are sending in is about something really big like a monster size frog and then a video with some of the biggest hail stones I have ever seen! The Big story this week is more than big, it’s about this new video supposedly showing a Gigantic alligator on a golf course!

The video was first sent in by Joey Hernandez, Jason B, and Funedge Community. It was recorded by golfer Charles Helms and claims to show a real life giant of a Alligator on the golf course.
But is this video for real? Or are we maybe looking at some big fat special effects here. Why don’t take a swing at this and see what we can find out.

There were no lack of news reports, facebook postings, and youtube videos showing this beast… but the strange thing about all this is the guy who actually recorded the video. According to all these reports, the video comes from the facebook page of man named Charles Helms But when we looked for Mr. Helms and his page, there is nothing there. Just a few guys who were not the Mr. Helms we were looking for.
Another guy in credited as being in the video is David Matos, of Parrish, Florida. But once again, no Facebook and no Twitter accounts for him either.

The more I looked around, the more suspicious I became about all this. On the Youtube channel where posted the video, there were more than just a few people claiming the video a fake.
As Jotaro Kujo pointed out, “the alligator’s” shadow doesn’t mold to the ground correctly, it is only cast directly below him when one should be cast to the alligator’s right as would be consistent with the second male filming.”
