This guy is a realtor and bought the drone to promote his listings. He shoulda stuck to business...
A Palm Beach, Florida real estate agent recently learned just how dangerous and agile alligators can be when he lost his brand new drone to a hungry gator in one fell swoop.
Robert Rosetto is getting his 15 minutes of fame after posting a video of the fatal fly-by on his Instagram account. In the footage, he hovers the craft over a lake while a gator curiously and calmly watches. The giant reptile then leaps straight from the water and snatches it with an audible crunch.
“Well, there goes my drone! Damn Alligator actually just ATE it!” Rosetto captioned.
Rosetto had just purchased the drone to use for real estate listings. And that day, he took it to the lake to photograph his girlfriend’s boat. As he was flying over the water, “the alligator showed serious interest in it coming directly towards it and then following it.” So he decided to stop and get some “good up-close video and pictures” of the creature. But it had other plans.
“Never thought it would actually launch itself that high out of the water and grab the drone,” he said. “I’ve lived in Florida for almost 30 years and come across alligators frequently but have never seen anything like that.”
Rosetto wasn’t thrilled to lose the costly contraption. But his family thought the sacrifice was worth the laugh. “They thought it was hilarious,” he added. “My 11-year-old son thought it was the funniest thing ever.”
