A woman and her young son climbed into a pit packed with alligators at the Safari North Wildlife Park in Brainerd, Minnesota last weekend.  And they did it just to retrieve her wet wallet from a pond.

There's a video online of the woman and her son walking around inside the enclosure, with the alligators aware of their presence.
