21 Foot Alligator Caught in New Orleans. Not.
Did you get the e-mail with images of the big alligator purported to have been caught swimming down the street in New Orleans?
You guessed it. An urban myth (but a good one, no?). Check the story on Snopes, the premier myth busting site.
The Bent Spaghetti Phenomenon
So you didn’t like finding out that the alligator pix was a hoax, eh? How about learning about physicist Richard Feynman and his broken pasta experiment.
No? Well tune in tomorrow when I tell you about my experiment with Windows Hibernate mode.

wtg steve... i thought i was finally gonna be able to get my brother a pair a gators ... thought that gator was big enough to do the job, had my trip all planned ...LOL..
signed .. living in canada without gators
well, I hope you (or someone!) is going to tell us where it was caught. I'd hate to see that thing coming up the toilet pipe!
My guess is that it is a salt water croc.
whaddya mean it's not true?
five emails from five different recipients can't be wrong, can they?!?
;^)
I'll take one gator skin money clip, please. Thats not asking too much is it?
That's not an alligator, its a croc, looks like a nile croc. Alligator have a round snout and croc have a slim snout
If it's not true it's a RRRRRRREEEEEEEEEALLLL big lie. LOL
OH, thank God! My kid is doing volunteer work on the Gulf Coast!
Well, it DOES look like it could have been in New Orleans...
Its a real picture....just from 2003 not 2005...and its a croc not an alligator...it did exist
YIKES
yeah that is a big crocidile i think it got in some nuclear wast or somthing that (HUGE).
There was a 16 foot gator caught in New Orleans there was not one that big.
What people will do for fun never ceases to amaze me
what if the mother fucker was just chilling , why do we always got to excpect the worse out of everythiong, fucking americans
Send a bigger picture to me of the alligator
The site even says, the pictures are real, it just wasn't found in New Orleans. It was actually found in Africa.
The picture has been "modified" a bit to make it look bigger
