Texas Girl Laughs Off Alligator While Wakeboarding On The River

So, imagine you're out wakeboarding and swimming on the lake with your pals when you spot an alligator not far from you in the water. What's your next move? Most of us are going to do something along the lines of scream, bail, freeze, or swim like hell. But not this Texas girl. Viral video footage shows the girl laughing, yes, laughing, as a gator glides by on the water 20 or so feet away from her.

Cool, calm, collected, badass vibes, y'all. 

The Viral Video

The viral video, posted by TikTok creator @malibuwakeclm288 4 days ago, reads, "Nothing like Wakesurfing in your river and you see a gator swimming. Time to go!!!!" While those words do portray a sense of urgency, the video, on the other hand, does not.

Take a look at the viral TikTok below, but be prepared to put away your man card, because this girl is way tougher than you. 

No Fear

She doesn't seem worried at all, which is wild. The Colorado River is known to be pretty infested with alligators. It's not quite as bad as some other spots in Texas, like the Brazos River and the Nueces River, but it's up there.
