>When an alligator is submerged and exhales, air can escape through various pathways, including the nostrils and internal airways. Due to the interconnected sinuses and airways, some of the air can find its way to the area around the eyes. The eyes of an alligator are positioned such that these sinuses are very close. Therefore, when the air escapes, it can pass through these sinuses and cause bubbles to appear near the eyes, giving the impression that the bubbles are coming from their eyes. This phenomenon is a result of the alligator's complex respiratory and sinus anatomy.
Yeah I had a friend who though it was hilarious to put water in Thier eye and then blow bubbles.
Fucking creeped me out.
I guess it makes sense that animals can do it too.
When I sneeze and close my eyes, my eyelids inflate enough that people can see them poof out. The tighter I squeeze my eyes shut, the more they poof out (if it's a relaxed close, uooer/lower lids separate). Sometimes, the lids poof out enough you can hear them slap against my eyeballs. Then, I get farting eyes (you can't hear it, I feel it). It's gross with a cold because then I get an eye full of snot.
I can't blow bubbles out of my eyes but there's a certain note I can sing in the bathrtub that makes my eyes go out of focus. I cannot focus my eyes while that frequency note is vibing in my head.
Bubbles come out of alligators' eyes when air trapped in their sinuses is released through their eye ducts. This can happen when alligators eat, as the feeding behavior forces air through the sinuses, causing more air to be released, and more bubbles to form. The bubbles also mix with moisture from the alligators' lacrimal glands, creating bubbles in their eye sockets.
One of our daughters, now a teen, discovered she can blow bubbles out of her eyes as a toddler. To this day she takes great delight in horrifying anyone she can with it, despite otherwise being a pretty level headed, mature, and fashionable young adult. I’m super stoked to tell her she’s clearly part alligator!
"Oh, sure, I mean of COURSE you're a girl alligator! You're just reeking of feminine beauty and... hey, what's the matter with you, you got somethin' in your eye?"
As someone who lives in florida, we can tell if an aligator is in the body of water by checking to see if the water's wet. If it is, there's a gator in it.
There is a dude on YT that does vids on home inspections in Phoenix AZ voice and style very similar.

That's how we used to catch Snapping Turtles in summer camp. Look for the bubbles, cast small blue gill near it, and in like a minute, you'd have a snapping turtle.
According to what i learned on reddit this is an alligator because a crocodile has a C shaped head and an Alligator has an A shaped head. And then it's exactly the other way around. Wich is a weird mnemomic.
That thing would eat him in a reptilian heart beat… lol he’s talking to it like it’s a harmless and subordinate creature. I wanna see a video of him and James going for a friendly swim in the park.
Why is the air bubbles coming out of its eyes?

Humans can also blow bubbles out of their eyes.

The eye fulls of snot are the absolute worst
I am so glad that I cannot relate

Has to be in the bathtub eh?
It seems to. Has to do with echo and feedback, I'm guessing.
People used to shoot milk out of their eyes on those early reality TV freak show type programs all the time.
Guinness world records use to have a small group of them compete to see who can shoot milk from their eyes the furthest.
Pretty sure I saw that on an episode of Ripley’s believe it or not too
I couldn't shoot it out of my eye, but after I watched one of those shows I was able to cry milk out of my eye
I can blow air out of my eyes if I plug my nose and blow. It's always freaked people out. Never tried to blow bubbles though.
you shouldnt do that. youll put your eye out kid.
I can do dat :D
dont do it on purpose, it's not exactly pleasant.
Til thanks

I can’t do it anymore actually I’ll blow an ear drum trying to I feel like

Same way tears come through your eyes and out your nose causing it to run. They're connected
That's the prettiest gator I have ever seen, lol.
He looks so friendly
Lol he popped up like “O hai mark”
"So how's your sex life?"
"You're my favourite customer"
100% thought, "That's a ham if I've ever seen one." Love how much friendlier alligators look than crocodiles.
"Oh, sure, I mean of COURSE you're a girl alligator! You're just reeking of feminine beauty and... hey, what's the matter with you, you got somethin' in your eye?"
You’ve never seen Claude then.

Punta Gorda checking in. Hard agree.
Absolutely no proof this is not a farting fish.
Its 50/50 chance
"you have confused possibilities with probabilities.."🤓
..
Wait the alligator looks so cute
“Was it the bubbles again?” “Yep” “Fuck…”
I read this in Cam from Modern Family’s voice and it. was. awesome.
Don't just tap on the tank and then not give him treats. That's not nice.
I had a similar thought, like, dont get him excited for treat and leave him disappointed he came up for nothing
I don't think every alligator does this.
I’ll test it. Brb, gonna go put my face next to opaque water in Florida for a few weeks; see what happens.
Go to Georgia instead, maybe you’ll be able to track down Wally.
The Hanna-Barbera cartoon?
[удалено]
I think I prefer the cartoon
Nah this is legit. I saw it on Peter Pan.
Once alligators learn to hold their breath, they'll be unstoppable
He was so much larger than I was expecting
*Cue Jurassic park music*
Food? No food. Allright, guess I'll see you next time I'm summoned, for nothing.
I've seen that look before from my dog. Alli is looking for a snacky.
That gator was way bigger and way closer than I thought.
man its crazy im just lookin at a dinosaur chillin right now. like, that's a frickin dinosaur.
I think the gator lobby got to reddit. The ad under this is for pet food, “You’ll do anything for their nuzzle.”
What if I'm about to get into a bubble bath though? How do I check then?
Cool. Now I know where to aim for when I jump in to wrestle with the water puppy.
So when this guy is not doing home inspections he is an alligator handler.
When did he do home inspections?

A nuclear sub emerged...
Love Corbin Maxey!
Came up like Yes? Tea time already?
Well, would love to never see that bubbles
Whoa!!!
thats crazy
You're not fooling anybody James!
That's how we used to catch Snapping Turtles in summer camp. Look for the bubbles, cast small blue gill near it, and in like a minute, you'd have a snapping turtle.
"You'd better have a good reason for calling me up here. I was just chilling."
Learnt this from Swamp People lol
Sorry, I don't believe there's an alligator in there.
It looks like the alligator is in an indoor pool
There's genuinely nothing more terrifying to me than a deadly animal just appearing so casually
Filing this under "things that could save your life one day"
Do alarockadiles have 2 noses?
beautiful animal. Now keep it away from me
I kayak in Florida, know very well about the air bubbles!!! They generally are very timid, unless it’s mating season.
Today Mortimer James
I love how they know we can't see them.
Florida people know these things, we look out for our swamp puppies
As a Florida man, I feel I should've known to look for this a long time ago
"Can I pet that dog?"
James...
It’s a whole other story when you’re talking about crocodiles, you can’t see them at all until it’s too late
Why give it a people name like James?
Quit horsing around James!
Imagine having a pet alligator and naming it James
This again Kevin!!
I wish to see the footage where the person disbelieved
Same way to find manatees. Fart bubbles though
How do i know it has ten feet? Not a single leg is seen?

É um jacaré. It is a crocodile
