A Florida woman got up close and personal with a 10 foot alligator while paddle boarding.
According the Associated Press, Vicki Baker was enjoying the Silver river in Silver Springs Park when she came across the creature.
Unfortunately for Baker, people had been likely illegally feeding the gator, so he went right up to her, possibly looking for food.
Luckily, Baker was able to push the animal away with her paddle.
The alligator has since been removed.
