The use of drones has increased over the past few years. Many photographers and videographers use drones to capture the beauty of nature and capture aerial views. Not only this, some use it to get closer to the wildlife and learn more about the animals. However, getting too close to the wild can sometimes come with a cost. And a recent video shows something like that.
In a video shared by the Twitter page @HowThingsWork_, the drone was filming an alligator when the alligator grabbed the drone mid-air. In the video, the alligator chases the drone as it flies dangerously close to the animal. The alligator immediately leapt into the air and caught the drone as it hovered. Within seconds, the creature crushed the drone in the water.
The post’s caption reads, “Using drones to capture wildlife video footage.”

Don’t be like this man!” Another man added, “Oh!! Had no idea they could jump that far.” A third person wrote, “Wow! I’m not sure how deep the bottom is, but this little guy’s leap through the water is pretty impressive.”
