WATCH: Outsized alligator spotted lumbering at US golf club

Giant Gator Walks Across Florida Golf Course | GOLF.com

It was like a spine-tingling scene from Stephen Spielberg’s film “Jurassic Park.”

A monstrous, 15-foot alligator was spotted trudging across a golf course at Buffalo Creek Golf Club in Palmetto, Florida, USA.

The gator was incredibly huge that even the person who filmed the snobbish reptile could not believe his eyes.

“I didn’t know if we were being punked or something. It was just laying down, resting, when it got up and started moving towards the big lake,” golfer Charles Helms told ABC News affiliate WFTS.

However, alligators are not a hazardous threat to golfers and visitors in the area. In an interview with Golf.com, Helms explained that the creature could only stroll about 100 feet at a time before it would pause and rest its body.

Golf.com uploaded the footage on its YouTube account on Monday, which has accumulated 8.3 million views as of this writing.  The caption wrote, “Talk about a hazard! A giant alligator took a stroll across the fairway, making his way to the lake beside the third hole at Buffalo Creek Golf Club.”

One YouTube user even edited a hilarious video clip featuring a memorable scene from “Jurassic Park”:

Many social media users who watched the video clip were skeptical and doubtful of the reptile’s size, but a remarkable number of them gave comedic reactions.

“Man, I was hoping it would kill someone,” one user said. Another user, who doubted the video’s authenticity, compared it to a popular TV personality: “This is faker than Kim Kardashian’s ass.”

Other users compared the haughty alligator to a Komodo dragon, an Indonesian lizard, and Optimus Prime, the superhero of box-office franchise “Transformers”. Gianna Francesca Catolico
