An alligator handler in Florida had his arm broken in two places when a thousand-pound gator bit him during a demonstration at a party.
From the Sun-Sentinel:
Will Nace, a volunteer handler, was bitten by the alligator Lunge while performing during a private party at Native Village on Saturday, said park co-owner Ian Tyson. The alligator grabbed Nace's arm and dragged him into a pond where the two spun around. Another trainer jumped into the gated pit and manage to set Nace's arm free. Surge Achille, a party-planner at the park, said the frightening incident took less than a few minutes. "It was surrreal. It was like your mind couldn't catch up with what was happening," Achille said. "I kept thinking it wasn't real, but it was."Nace will require multiple surgeries and skin grafts.
