“Bitten” is preferable to “swallowed.”

And this is a surprise to anyone in Florida? Past or present?

"Keep a safe distance if you see an alligator." I have/carry an Alexander Arms AR-50 "Beowulf" .50cal w/ 375gr FMJs/HPs, and still don't get near those nasty things, but a ¼-mile distance is even better.

goes swimming at 2am in a Florida lake?.
Since Colorado has more weed, the Florida genius likely involved beer.

I thought the same. I suspect it might have been a “hold my beer” exercise.

If he only bit him and didn’t eat him, I’m guessing the guy didn’t taste all that good.

We saw people kayaking in the dark just hours after we saw a hungry alligator in the canal where we were staying. No thanks.
If a gator comes towards you once you are noisy, that means he wants more food, and he’s not scared of you. I like to keep them at a distance, not jump in the water with them.

Last week, I was just sitting on the edge of the canal quietly enjoying the view across me when I noticed a gator swimming nearby. As soon as he saw me move towards the house, he swam right over to the edge, and then into the boathouse, where there are steps. That was close enough for me. I not only closed the screen porch door, I locked it, too. I’m sure a gator’s tail would tear down a screen easily, but then there was a whole house to retreat into if I had needed.

PSA for Florida. Touch your finger to the water. If it is wet, there is probably a gator in it.
