#2 "I thought it was just a log," said Patricia Compton, 65, of The Acreage. "Then I saw his head, his teeth on my leg.... It was vicious."

Compton and seven family members had just driven through a 3-foot-deep water puddle when an alligator 9-feet, 8-inches long lunged up and clamped down on Compton's ankle while her relatives, aged 4 to 14, watched in horror.

Compton had been sitting on an ice chest in the back of the pickup with her white Reeboks outstretched about 18 inches above the water to avoid getting wet as the truck slowly moved through the puddle.

Kind of makes you leery about driving your bike through a puddle without having a Ka-bar handy.
