Reptile park worker slips while feeding 600lb alligator

A reptile park worker had a narrow esacape after he slipped while feeding a 600lb alligator.

The man is seen holding a raw turkey to feed the alligator, named Elvis. He steps into the water with the turkey for Elvis, who goes to snap it up, but misses. Elvis then launches himself to get the turkey again, and as the man steps back to get of his way, he loses his footing.

The worker then desperately tries to scramble away as Elvis follows him up the embankment, at the park in Colorado.
