I love this blog, but why are most of the replies so obvious? I mean why would anyone go through the trouble of adding their opinion if it’s the exact sentiment of the picture?
Am I the only one who sees there is a snake choking the mom? You can see her face turning red from the lack of oxygen, and that’s a grimace, not a smile!
This was certainly Dad’s idea. The mother is forcing a smile, the eldest child is clearly just putting on a brave face but the smallest one cannot hide the fact that she is absolutely petrified…I’m just trying to figure out where the snake’s head is.
What makes this funny, is that no one EXCEPT the Father is happy in this photo. The mom with the fake smile. The look of fright on the youngest child. And the older girl’s look of get me out of here fast.
Why would you put your kids through that?
the look on that little girl’s face while she’s nose to nose with a gator peering at her is distubring and hilarious all at once. Yes, I know, not PETA approved gator treatment. But still…
Dad: “One more beer should do it”
Mom: “I’ve got my plastered on smile, but YOU are SO not getting any…”
Baby: “If that tape comes off, It’s going to EAT ME!!”
Sister: Sister just finished a 22 minute crying hissy fit, no comment was recorded.
You are right seano..this must be Australian….guys in pink shorts, strangling their wives and traumatizing their kids..hey, let’s toss another shrimp on the barbe…and by the way that little girl is gorgeous
Yes I am Australian too, and OF COURSE we all have photos of our kids with crocs – ooops just fended off another one now! That’s of course when they’re not feeding their pet kangaroos and koalas while we throw another prawn (not shrimp) on the barbie. And while we’re at it NO self-respecting Australian drinks Fosters! Paul Hogan and Steve Irwin have a LOT to answer for.
20 years ago…. do you think those kids are still in therapy? Judging from the looks on both of their faces, they didn’t sleep the entire rest of that vacation.
Clueless Dad is the only one that is happy here! Mom’s smile is kinda strained, the oldest is pissed and that poor little one is wide eyed with fright! I’ll bet she still has nightmares!
I wonder if the statute of limitations on child endangerment has run out yet. I also wonder if mom’s jaw has unclenched yet. While I’m at it, I also wonder if Dad’s health plan covered the treatment for the kids’ PTSD.
Dad: “Oh man, this is sweet, wait till I tell the guys at work”
Mom: “Damnit, why did I let him talk me into this?”
Little Sis: “Please don’t eat my sister!”
Big Sis: “Do you really have to take my picture? I’m having a bad hair day!”
Gator: “MMMMM if that tape weren’t on my mouth, I’d be havin dinner right about now.”

*eeeeeee ooooore eeeeeeee ore. PULL OVER! It’s the fun police!”
“Hello, Child Protective Services…”
Dad’s pink shorts are pretty terrifying too! Hahaha!

Look at Mom’s hands. Shes got a death grip on her girls. That look on her face is “OK Girls, 1st sign of movement and we are OUTTA HERE!”
Naw, kid. I’m not dangerous. My mouth is just taped shut because I talk too much.
Why does the snake looked stretched?
I’m sure the psychologist sent his kids through college “working” through the kids trauma, geez!
Even Mom looks VERY worried!
I’m diggin dad’s pink shorts!
A month before I was born.
Is anyone seeing the snake wrapped around the man and woman! lol
This was certainly Dad’s idea. The mother is forcing a smile, the eldest child is clearly just putting on a brave face but the smallest one cannot hide the fact that she is absolutely petrified…I’m just trying to figure out where the snake’s head is.
I feel so bad for those little girls…
The look of terror is priceless.
Gator is looking hungrily at the baby. All the picture needs is gator’s tongue making the smacking sound. The kids look positively terrified.
The kids are in their 20s now. Would love to know their “memory” of this.
I like the way the gator is looking at the baby like ummmm dinner
))

Why would you put your kids through that?

It’s nice to know that the only thing keeping your toddler from being lunch is a piece of electrical tape.
Never mind the tape on the mouth….look at those claws on that gator. Could easily shred a baby face. Some people have no common sense!
I love the stare off between the alligator and the baby….I bet the alligator lost that contest!
That little girls face says it all. I can’t stop from laughing every time I see the horror in her eyes
The littlest girl’s face says it all.
the look on that little girl’s face while she’s nose to nose with a gator peering at her is distubring and hilarious all at once. Yes, I know, not PETA approved gator treatment. But still…
That gator looks like it’s about to make a snack out of the little girl. Om nom nom!
A guy, his gal, their girls, a gator and a garter snake?
Great!
Ha! The only one who is not COMPLETELY TERRIFIED is the dad. Too funny!
Dad: “One more beer should do it”
Mom: “I’ve got my plastered on smile, but YOU are SO not getting any…”
Baby: “If that tape comes off, It’s going to EAT ME!!”
Sister: Sister just finished a 22 minute crying hissy fit, no comment was recorded.
The kids seem to be the only people aware of the gravity of the situation!
LOL!
Oh, poor kids, the wanted to hold the mini gator for the pic.
The look on that poor baby’s face says it all!
The following is true.
About 40 years ago, my wife and I left our small child in the care of a hippie baby-sitter. Now I think, What were we thinking!
One day said babysitter proudly showed us a pet alligator she and her husband were keeping in their bathtub.
My child is now over 40 years old and she still speaks to me.
I’m thinking Dad planned the family vacation that year…..
Gotta love the look on the baby’s face….
Mom doesn’t look too thrilled either-such a forced smile!
Love the pink man shorts.
I was just going to say “am I really the only one who sees them?” And they’re satin!
Um… It might be because I’m Australian… But where is the awkwardness??? Who hasn’t got a picture of their kids with a croc?
I guess the baby looks a little perturbed… but I don’t think it is very awkward.
Maybe they caught the croc using a compound bow.
You are right seano..this must be Australian….guys in pink shorts, strangling their wives and traumatizing their kids..hey, let’s toss another shrimp on the barbe…and by the way that little girl is gorgeous

LOL – If you haven’t got a pic of your kids with a crocodile and you are Australian, you must be from Tasmania. And I’m not sure that counts…
crikey
The look on the baby’s face is priceless!
The baby should be glad that there is tape on the gator’s mouth!
20 years ago…. do you think those kids are still in therapy? Judging from the looks on both of their faces, they didn’t sleep the entire rest of that vacation.
Those kids are scarred for life!
What do you want to bet 20 years later, that girl is still trying to fit into that same shirt?
I wouldn’t be suprised if in her later years that little girl sued her parents for emotional distress.
Are there alligators in the advertisement too? Can we see an ‘after they get bit’ photo too?
i love the terrified look of the little baby staring straight into the eyes of the alligator.
haha look at poor kid’s face! she was stunned to see the gator face to face lol
Priceless look on that poor tot’s face! She is the only one with sense enough to be frightened!
Clueless Dad is the only one that is happy here! Mom’s smile is kinda strained, the oldest is pissed and that poor little one is wide eyed with fright! I’ll bet she still has nightmares!
I wonder if the statute of limitations on child endangerment has run out yet. I also wonder if mom’s jaw has unclenched yet. While I’m at it, I also wonder if Dad’s health plan covered the treatment for the kids’ PTSD.
They’re looking so worried because they saw what just happened to their baby brother!
*Thoughts of the family:*
Dad: “Oh man, this is sweet, wait till I tell the guys at work”
Mom: “Damnit, why did I let him talk me into this?”
Little Sis: “Please don’t eat my sister!”
Big Sis: “Do you really have to take my picture? I’m having a bad hair day!”
Gator: “MMMMM if that tape weren’t on my mouth, I’d be havin dinner right about now.”
