The incredible moment is captured when a Florida man at the Everglades National Park captured an alligator named Casper swimming directly above his head.

Casper, much like the eponymous ghost, is a friendly sort and trained to be around humans.

"Casper and his handler, Chris Gillette, are on a mission to help educate people on how to coexist with wild alligators so that both people and gators can share Florida," said Ewan, the filmer about the moment captured on February 2.

Whilst visiting the Everglades National Park cameraman Ewan Wilson discovered a wildlife sanctuary called the Everglades Outpost. Within this sanctuary there is an alligator named Casper whom has become particularly calm around humans but only when his handler Chris Gellete is with him.

Casper stands out as his carer Chris Gillette has trained him to be completely calm around humans. Casper and Chris are on a mission to help educate people on how to coexist with wild alligators so that both people and gators can share florida safely.
Footage was taken on Saturday 2nd February 2019 at the Everglades Outpost.
