Juliana did not sit tight for protection.
A 9-foot croc had hooked itself onto Julianna’s leg, and would not give up. Aquino, dreading for Juliana’s life, instantly hurried into the water.
Be that as it may, Juliana, in spite of her fear and stun, was no lady in trouble.
” I tried hitting it to let it release me, but it didn’t work,” Juliana disclosed to Inside Edition.
At that point she recalled some counsel she had learned at a visit to Orlando’s Gatorland, a croc stop.
Juliana utilized a strategy she learned at Gatorland to pry herself free.

At some point later, the gator was caught, expelled from the lake, and put around trappers.
Regardless of some minor wounds Juliana is doing fine.

“To get an animal with the strongest bite on the planet to let go of you is a miracle,” Aldarelli disclosed to ABC News.
Her folks are likewise completely mindful that without Juliana’s fearlessness and quality, the story may have had an altogether different closure.
“It’s a happy ending to a story that never ends happy,” Jamie Ossa, Juliana’s dad, told Today.

” If you’re ever in an alligator emergency, or an alligator’s got you, do the same thing. Don’t be scared,” Juliana told Today.
