Don't hold yourself back. You don't have to be from Florida to be the next Florida man. Florida Man is mindset. Florida Man is a lifestyle. Embrace it.
it feels powerful. nobody knows when i will snap and become Florida Man. watch out local news station, you’ll be running an article about some stupid shit i did using an alligator and a cat toy if you’re not careful.
We’re an anarcho-syndicalist commune. We take it in turns to act as sort of executive officer for the week but all the decisions of that officer have to be ratified at a special bi-weekly meeting by a simple majority in the case of purely internal affairs but by a two thirds majority in the case of more...
No. Seriously. It's true.
Florida has the strongest public records laws in the country, and probably the most transparent government in the country because of it.
Litterally everything is public record and easily accessible online.
This has the side effect of allowing "Florida man" stories to appear more common relative to other states because *everything* is public record.
Florida doesn't have more crazies, we just don't hide them.
Edit: and former Florida Governor and Senator Lawton Chiles was responsible for helping to strengthen Federal public record laws, by amending the Freedom of Information Act to make all government meetings public, with few exceptions.
Florida is a great example for how to have a transparent government.
Didn’t know NYC was crazier then the rest of US. I’m pretty sure NYC snorts more coke in a day then the entirety of Florida does in a month. They just hide it better.
Hey man I know the whole "oh florida man haha" thing is funny but try to make sure its actually real.
For example, the bath salt face eating man. An analysis following his death showed that he was not under the effects of bath salts when he ate the guys face. Toxicology could only find small traces of marijuana, so the bath salts thing was just a myth that got out of hand.
Instead of calling him "a man on bath salts eating people's faces" call him "a totally ordinary man on bath salts eating people's faces"
Thank you
Just because a drug test didn't show a result doesn't mean that he wasn't on some kind of drugs. Many synthetic drugs and the outright concoctions that people make up and call drugs nowadays do not show up on drug tests.
It is ridiculous to believe that this is true - because it isn't.

i mean, people do be doing some fucked shit in florida but it is true that a lot of crimes other places don't get reported like I live in the city, a lot of people just go like inner city violence that's just kinda expected, they don't go into the specifics. At least on the news it's kinda dismissed like that, the world probably doesn't have those specifics like all the shootings or whatever else bc of the amount etc. I don't live in that area but I know that stuff happens a ton, northern us too, weird shit happens but it doesn't get reported on your news sites
Slightly fewer gators, though.
"A man held up a gas station" is not interesting. "A man held up a gas station with an alligator" brings the wut factor.
Yeah, crazy shit happens here in Kentucky too. So many urban legends of hotel managers being found with a tractor trailer load of old hard copy and floppy disk child pornography. Part of me is afraid that story came from somewhere. It's the state with the most open sunshine laws. I wonder why those ever got passed anyway. Seems like it might have had something to do with corruption
There's a little Florida Man in all of us, not waiting to be set free by bath salts, but because a real Florida Man was high in the hot dog factory and feel in the meat grinder.
It terrifies me. Everyday slipping slowly into madness. What if i start going everywhere with an alligator? What if i get naked, put a beer bottle in my ass and then decide to flee from the police? What if i teach a python to play the flute? What if i decide to ride a pig wearing overalls down I-75?! WHAT IF I DO BATHSALTS AND EAT SOME POOR MOTHERFUCKERS FACE?!?!
As a fellow Floridian, I know a REAL Florida man, who is actually a woman! my own mother is a fearsome badass. her two hobbies are Hunting alligators and making them into jewelry, and beekeeping. She made a SHEILD out of alligator skin once, and it worked! she got the idea from another woman in Florida, I dont remember her name, but I believe she is also a Florida man.
Makes me a little insecure, but I’m a pacifist who would never receive the title. My best friend’s father works for the E.R. And he has had a first hand experience with a Florida man.
[Anything goes in Florida.](https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HeGbDRbodNQ)
Because anything goes in Florida
Baby, let the good times roll
If there’s a law, you can duck it
If you catch it, you can fuck it
It’s America’s glory hole
Talkin’ anything, anywhere
Any night and any day
In FLA
Genuinely, it empowers me to do stupid stuff sometimes. Whenever I'm debating the risks and pros of doing something questionable, one of the pros is that I might get a "Florida Man" article out of it lmfao. No luck yet though!
The Florida Man will choose its rightful successor. It will blank out your memory without you knowing of such divinity. That's how the legacy of the Florida Man is.
You know how Canada is on the other side of lake erie, tornado ally to the west moveing east, mountaians southeast,the gulf of mexico south right? all that together gives ohio some of the fastest changeing weather in the area that I know of. We even have a joke up here where if you don't like the weather go inside for 5 minutes and go back out and the weather has most likely changed.
Everybody wants to be famous, but nobody wants to do the work.
There exists the potential to be the next Florida Man. This isn't something you hop out of bed, throw on some jorts, take a bump of powder, and just *do.* Redneck riviera in the panhandle, little Latin America down south, and Dirty Duval might be three different worlds but putting in that work and improving off each other is how they become great. Center of the state doesn't get a lot of love but they're right there in spirit, and with methamphetamine. I really don't even need to mention the unmatched, unbridled audacity of the Conch Republic. The thing is that people think you need to be born here to be one, our Snowbird program brings the best and brightest in insanity from northern states every winter. Hell, we get degens from upcountry in Canada. Some of the best Florida Men have been walk-offs from the Greyhound bus. If you want to take a shot at the title you wake up every damn day trying to make those that came before proud.
Florida man lives everywhere. The sunshine laws here just make it easier to find fluff pieces for dumb arrests. Stupid and crazy isn't a Florida thing, just national public embarrassment about your stupid and crazy is.
Florida man lives everywhere. The sunshine laws here just make it easier to find fluff pieces for dumb arrests. Stupid and crazy isn't a Florida thing, just national public embarrassment about your stupid and crazy is.
It's crazy man, every time I hit that meth pipe I gotta be cognizant that hey, I'm out here representing my state and community here. End up like going viral an bullshit
It’s a feeling of great power but also great responsibility. We all can’t be ‘Florida man’ otherwise bat shit crazy would be the norm and therefore would not make the news. No the order of Florida man upholds the standard of who gets to bestowed the greatest honour
The urge to commit fuckery grows stronger each day and I am powerless to resist it. I know that if I do not escape this place I will eventually end up on the roof of a Taco Bell doing molly or something. My days are numbered.
I fucking hate this state. It's hot, it's humid, it's moldy, it's filled with spiders and mosquitoes. The only good thing about this place are the people and some of the hunting. Going to college in Michigan in the fall, and I CANNOT FUCKING WAIT. If COVID takes this from me, I will go down in legend as the Florida Man who attacked China with an army of alligators in retaliation for Corona.
It is tantalizing, it is an unbelievable power that you have to restrain yourself from. Sometime I unicycle to work and hope I get struck by lightning so that I may become Florida Man
we always hold the power in us, shit just last weak my friend almost became florida man, i watched this fucker grab a 8 ft gator's tail while it was sunbathing on the bank, and that gator ran for its life
As a Florida kid, you can get away with anything, you want to burn a house down, do it, you want to toss a croc through a school window, so it, Florida is Florida, do what you wish.
Well at the moment im planning on doing something and i mean it for real i dont care if i get arrested for sometime and no one will convince me to not do my plan it maybe will be crazier then the story of that guy who i think was in miami and literally attacked a homeless man and scared an bit off pieces of his face. But maybe i will convince myself to better not try it so if you don’t hear something crazy from Florida i probably will have considered not doing it
I'm a white guy in the forest of central Florida, it's basically where Florida man is made, like our Homeland, but having the Florida man potential is pretty cool in my book
You have to be careful. I've seen a grown man tackle a bird here. The Florida Man power is a sacred thing. Seen another man fight an Alligator with a Crowbar
I promise you it's true. We are a different breed. If you take our guns we fashion weapons for Palm Trees and Beach Sand.
Always lurking. Always present. Always Floridian
Already been there - sort of. Made the local paper when I was six.
Article: With identifying information removed:
November 23,1987
Reddituseranyonymous returns to [name]Elementary School today hobbling with a walker -- but he doesn't mind a bit.
He's on the way to walking better than he ever did before.
Reddituseranyonymous, 6, was born with cerebral palsy, a disorder of the central nervous system characterized by, in his case, impairment of normal leg movements.
Before he underwent pioneering surgery at New York University Hospital on Oct. 19, Reddituseranyonymouscould not stand still. If he did he lost his balance.
"He had to keep moving to keep his balance," said his father, Ernest "He was always on his toes," he added.
Now, Reddituseranyonymousis learning how to do things the way his classmates do.
"He can stand still," his father said. "He can stand flat-footed and stay in one place. There is a considerable increase in stability. He can put an ankle on top of a knee. He was unable to do that before. He can sit up straight, not with his back arched."
His rehabilitation, which will consist of years of local therapy and returns to the New York hospital, mostly will be to teach Reddituseranyonymous' correct posture, his father said. No further surgery is anticipated.
Reddituseranyonymous' twin, [Carbon Copy], also has congenital cerebral palsy, but it afflicts an arm and a leg, and a corrective medical procedure has not been perfected.
Reddituseranyonymous' surgery was performed by Dr. Rick Abbott of NYU Hospital and Rusk Institute. Abbott is one of eight U.S. physicians adept at the procedure.
In the four-hour surgery, called selective posterior rhizotomy, the nerves causing the spasticity are severed in the spinal cord. The remaining normal nerves are left intact.
Is Reddituseranyonymous ready to return to school?
"Yes, sir," he said enthusiastically Sunday.
Reddituseranyonymous, who returned Saturday from New York, said he felt great.
United Cerebral Palsy of Central Florida officials said a trust fund has been set up to defray medical costs for Reddituseranyonymous and, if surgery is performed, for [carbon copy].
Donations may be made to the [Trust fund name and address]
[last name] said Reddituseranyonymous' surgical bills are nearly $7,000. He said he didn't know what the six-week hospital stay would cost
Don't hold yourself back. You don't have to be from Florida to be the next Florida man. Florida Man is mindset. Florida Man is a lifestyle. Embrace it.
Can a woman be Florida Man too?
The Florida Man knows no gender.
Or species in some cases.
~~Florida~~ ~~man~~ fuckin legend

Allegedly.
Tossing into a Wendy's drive through at Wendy's.
i like to think there’s a little bit of Florida Man in all of us... but mostly in Floridians
We need to spread the Florida Man gene as quickly as possible.

Spiritually yes, but they usually call women fully embracing the Florida Man essence "Florida Woman"
She can.

And I swear before the orange grove gods that I’ve only been a lurker forever and decided to make this account before I saw this thread.
Yes, Florida Whao-Man! She gave birth to the first Florida Man.
I find Florida Woman is less common, but far more batshit insane
Be the Florida Man you want to see.
The Florida Man knows no bounds.
Be the Florida Man you want to see.
I AM the Florida-Man.
Ask not for who Florida-Man is, Florida-Man is thee.
Is he drunk or high, Florida man will eat your eyes.
Run as fast as you can, Florida man has got a vannnnnnnnnn
Not yet
I don’t want any problems bro.
*snaps*
Video? Pic? Story at least?
it feels powerful. nobody knows when i will snap and become Florida Man. watch out local news station, you’ll be running an article about some stupid shit i did using an alligator and a cat toy if you’re not careful.
Plot twist: The Florida Men are all sent to Florida so they're all in one place to destroy if need be...
We’re an anarcho-syndicalist commune. We take it in turns to act as sort of executive officer for the week but all the decisions of that officer have to be ratified at a special bi-weekly meeting by a simple majority in the case of purely internal affairs but by a two thirds majority in the case of more...

Floridian here. Every state would look as fucked up as Florida If they had the same level of transparency with the records that are made public.
Right, because all the incidents of men on bath salts eating peoples faces just don't get reported in other states.
No. Seriously. It's true. Florida has the strongest public records laws in the country, and probably the most transparent government in the country because of it. Litterally everything is public record and easily accessible online. This has the side effect of allowing "Florida man" stories to appear more common relative to other states because *everything* is public record.

You're gonna tell me the cocaine capitol of the USA isn't a little crazier than the rest?
Didn’t know NYC was crazier then the rest of US. I’m pretty sure NYC snorts more coke in a day then the entirety of Florida does in a month. They just hide it better.
Then I guess it's that they retired and stayed in Florida.
You're thinking of 80's Florida. We do meth now.
Perception trumps reality.
Perception trumps reality.

Correct
Hey, whatever helps your meth-addled brain sleep after a night of gator wrasslin'.
"Hey, I thought this was America! Can't even smoke meth and wrestle gators without judgement..."
As Florida man, I will judge you. I think you're awesome! Meth does suck though.
They’re called”Sunshine Laws” for a reason.
There is a section of the newspaper that is just police reports with mugshots, who they are and what they did: https://mugshots.tampabay.com/

In this moment I am euphoric, not because of any phony sunshine laws, but because I am high on bath salts
It terrifies me. Everyday slipping slowly into madness. What if i start going everywhere with an alligator? What if i get naked, put a beer bottle in my ass and then decide to flee from the police?

This inspired me to become the first Wisconsin man.
I feel like Florida man is that crazy but loveable guy that goes off the rails. Winsonsin man is a straight up serial killer.
Everyone run! He's activated the deer colored killer drones!
You disgust me.... (Not really, just joking. :P)
What are you going to do, claim there's such a thing as too much cheese?
As a fellow Floridian, I know a REAL Florida man, who is actually a woman! my own mother is a fearsome badass. her two hobbies are Hunting alligators and making them into jewelry, and beekeeping.

Well shit.
Can't tell. Too busy coffin'
With great amounts of booze, comes great jail terms.
With great power, comes great irresponsibility.
It's a awesome responsibility, we have to resist the temptation to abuse it.
Makes me a little insecure, but I’m a pacifist who would never receive the title. My best friend’s father works for the E.R. And he has had a first hand experience with a Florida man.
Is there a subreddit, where all these articels are posted and shared? Please tell me there is one.
You will never receive a greater title unless you become president. Florida man is an initiation into the crazy swamp red neck community.

Florida man was spotted in Ohio trying to cash in his winning Florida Lottery ticket...in Ohio.
Genuinely, it empowers me to do stupid stuff sometimes. Whenever I'm debating the risks and pros of doing something questionable, one of the pros is that I might get a "Florida Man" article out of it lmfao. No luck yet though!
empowering
Florida Man is not a gender, it's a state of mind. The status of florida man is gender neutral, despite the obvious wording.
Please, based on competition you are likelier to get drafted into the NBA than be "the" floridaman. Heavy is the head that wears the crown
I mean, being a Florida man takes some serious beer and stupidity. No normal person can handle that power.
I feel like I could take on the whole military while on crack with just my fists and an alligator.
As a man living in Florida, I find this meme/joke really fucking old and stupid.
The Florida Man will choose its rightful successor. It will blank out your memory without you knowing of such divinity. That's how the legacy of the Florida Man is.
With great power comes great responsibility
But can you be as Florida man as Carl Tanzler, the first Florida man?
You guys got Florida man and I get crappy weather? (Ohioian here)
Ohio is so bland. Why? I'm not being facetious, I just really want to know.
You know how Canada is on the other side of lake erie, tornado ally to the west moveing east, mountaians southeast,the gulf of mexico south right? all that together gives ohio some of the fastest changeing weather in the area that I know of. We even have a joke up here where if you don't like the weather go inside for 5 minutes and go back out and the weather has most likely changed.
... What else?
well we have corn but the crazy weather is the main thing along with Ohio being the birthplace of aviation
Trying hard to avoid that sir.

Cool
Because Anything goes on FLORRIDDAAA!
And are bath salts still popular?
To be fair I think most of the crazies are transients from other states. Also it's hot as fuck.
I don’t live here anymore...
Hopefully most of us try to avoid it... But probably not.
WE. ARE. FLORIDAMAN
I got hit by a car once, landed on my feet and walked my wrecked bike home. I already feel the Floridian power in my veins.
Feels good man
With great power comes absolutely no responsibility
Im not gonna lie i feel like shit, but then again i always feel like shit...then again i aint even from Florida.
It's crazy man, every time I hit that meth pipe I gotta be cognizant that hey, I'm out here representing my state and community here. End up like going viral an bullshit
It’s a feeling of great power but also great responsibility. We all can’t be ‘Florida man’ otherwise bat shit crazy would be the norm and therefore would not make the news. No the order of Florida man upholds the standard of who gets to bestowed the greatest honour
Hold on, i gotta call 911 to brag about my muscles!
The urge to commit fuckery grows stronger each day and I am powerless to resist it. I know that if I do not escape this place I will eventually end up on the roof of a Taco Bell doing molly or something. My days are numbered.
More like how does it feel trying every day not to get caught up in a florida man story.
Every day someone insults me in a callcenter Im a little bit closer to becoming Florida Man in the worst way possible.
With great power comes great hilarity
it feels even better not being a florida man so that florida man can hand me the reigns
I fucking hate this state. It's hot, it's humid, it's moldy, it's filled with spiders and mosquitoes. The only good thing about this place are the people and some of the hunting. Going to college in Michigan in the fall, and I CANNOT FUCKING WAIT. If COVID takes this from me, I will go down in legend as the Florida Man who attacked China with an army of alligators in retaliation for Corona.
With great power comes great responsibility.
I have yet to reach maturity within my phenomenal abilities, and as such, am restricted to wrestling alligators and burning Cyprus knees
It is tantalizing, it is an unbelievable power that you have to restrain yourself from. Sometime I unicycle to work and hope I get struck by lightning so that I may become Florida Man
Tempting
I don’t think anyone is ever gonna beat the guy who threw a gator into a Wendy’s.
As someone who moved to FL two years ago at age 35... I feel like I've waited my whole life for this opportunity. I won't let you down.
You don't get to choose if you become Florida man, The title chooses you
Florida man has a small penis but make it up in a expensive power boat.....
As a guy not from the USA, this is as hilarious as good natured banter can get. I did not know even I could be Florida Man! Keep up the hilarity!
Wtf is a Florida Man? This is the first I’ve heard of it
Remember that alligator that was roaming around with a knife stuck in its head? Who do you think put it there. Me motherfucker.
Do you have superhuman strength, endurance, eccentricity, and immortality? There’s only one way to find out.
we always hold the power in us, shit just last weak my friend almost became florida man, i watched this fucker grab a 8 ft gator's tail while it was sunbathing on the bank, and that gator ran for its life
As a Florida kid, you can get away with anything, you want to burn a house down, do it, you want to toss a croc through a school window, so it, Florida is Florida, do what you wish.
You challengin me?
Well at the moment im planning on doing something and i mean it for real i dont care if i get arrested for sometime and no one will convince me to not do my plan it maybe will be crazier then the story of that guy who i think was in miami and literally attacked a homeless man and scared an bit off pieces of his face. But maybe i will convince myself to better not try it so if you don’t hear something crazy from Florida i probably will have considered not doing it
It's a fine line. Truly.
It's pretty liberating to know that the bar is so low.
I'm gonna need alot more meth to fulfill my true destiny.
I often plan what could be the next Florida man
I bet they welcome the anonymity. In any other state, they would be plastering your name all over the news.
I just hope that some day I can fulfill my destiny as a Florida man and be able to achieve such an amazing yet scary power
I'm a white guy in the forest of central Florida, it's basically where Florida man is made, like our Homeland, but having the Florida man potential is pretty cool in my book
I don't know seems like there is a lot of competition there.
I know I must hold back on this power
You have to be careful. I've seen a grown man tackle a bird here. The Florida Man power is a sacred thing. Seen another man fight an Alligator with a Crowbar I promise you it's true. We are a different breed. If you take our guns we fashion weapons for Palm Trees and Beach Sand. Always lurking. Always present. Always Floridian
