YouTube and TikTok prank culture has always toed the line between wholesome and toxic — when does it stop?
Pursifull has since been charged with burglary, theft of services and trespassing. He is currently being held at Orient Road Jail in Tampa on $8,500 bail.
Yates pointed out that part of the problem is that if Pursifull had been attacked by one of the alligators, the alligator would have had to be killed. The gators in the enclosure are reportedly up to 15 feet long and weigh around 1,000 pounds. Busch Gardens said Pursifull violated park policy and must have jumped over two fences to get inside the habitat, passing multiple signs explicitly stating it was a restricted access area. The theme park also told the outlet that security and animal care teams responded immediately and that no bystander or animal was hurt in the process.
“We are thankful to hear that the individuals involved in illegally entering one of our animal habitats recently have been arrested and are facing charges for their dangerous actions,” a spokesman for Busch Gardens said. “The safety and well-being of our guests, ambassadors, and animals is a top priority, and we are very grateful to law enforcement, particularly the Tampa Police Department and their law enforcement partners, for their swift action.
