Scared the bejeebies outta me. I googled to try to find out if the parachutist survived the gators - or if they et him.

There was a parachuting club not far from their farm, and one day the wind picked up and a guy was blown onto their farm, so this guy is coming down, and 7 Great Dane puppies (half grown) and their parents are barking and jumping up at the guy, who is trying to climb up his parachute lines.

The Great Danes just wanted to play with the newcomer.
