“When I was seven years old, I saw an alligator show,” he told the hosts of one of the TV shows.

According to him, he was fascinated and forgot all his problems.





“Watching this man with such a dinosaur, I forgot all my worries,” he noted. “I remembered thinking that I wanted to make other people feel the same way, to relax and have fun for a few minutes.”



Michael claimed to be "pretty crazy" but wasn't a strange guy, having worked with alligators for years.

Michael admitted that he wastes his time communicating with not-so-pleasant creatures.

“When it comes to the holidays, I stay in the paddock with them, on New Year's Eve I don't go out with everyone else and have parties,” he explained. “I stay in the paddock and sing them songs because I know the fireworks are on.” the sky can scare them. I show them films and sing songs to them."
