Fishing for a fisherman

Watch on YouTube

I don't think the alligator was planning to take up fishing, but it was inadvertently (I hope) baiting the fishing rod's owner to retrieve his property, and if the owner had been less cautious then he might have wound up being the alligator's lunch. Judging by the comments on the video, some others would have definitely been gator food.

The tape may come off but the charges will still stick

Clearly, when you want to take your van to the grocery store and not be outed as a predator, you need to find a way to make your lure more temporary. So long as nothing gets stuck in the adhesive residue left behind, this person may be able to make their van blend in after removing the tape - but they probably won't be so lucky.
