What price do you put on the glory days?

$110,000, maybe?

That is the cost of the bionic hand and arm recently acquired by 18 year old Kasey Edwards, who had the most tangible cost of stupidity I've ever seen.

Eager to recreate a high school stunt, he jumped into a lake in Melbourne at 2:30am, only to feel what he described as "a giant pair of pliers" clamp down on his arm. That "pair of pliers" was apparently attached to an 11 and a half foot alligator. He managed to escape its grip by poking it in the eye, but lost his arm in the disappointingly non-epic battle.

Now, I feel as though there are people more deserving of this type of technology. Not to be rude or judgmental or anything, but that's just how I feel. Chubbs from Happy Gilmore and Captain Hook come to mind. Both are probably very (fictionally) angry that a guy who provoked a gator attack gets such a fancy new arm all the way from Scotland.

In any case, good work on throwing money at an easily avoidable problem Kasey, and HOORAY FLORIDA!
