- description: RAW VIDEO -- World Largest Crocodile Gator 1,000 pound plus alligator Alabama River Alabama hunter and crew shatter state record, threaten world record with 1,000-pound-plus alligator from Alabama River 2014!!! http://Reblop.com/ A monster alligator weighing 1011.5 pounds measuring 15 feet long is pictured in Thomaston, Ala. on August 16, 2014. The gator was caught near Camden, Ala., by Mandy Stokes along with her husband John Stokes and her brother-in-law Kevin Jenkins and his two teenage children, Savannah Jenkins, 16, and Parker Jenkins, 14, all of Thomaston, Ala. (Sharon Steinmann/ssteinmann@al.com) THOMASTON, Alabama - Mandy Stokes put her pearls on Friday night. Ever since Keith Fancher and his crew pulled a 14-foot, 2-inch, 838-pound alligator from the Alabama River in 2011 to set the standard for the largest ever legally killed by an Alabama hunter, Stokes had jokingly told friends and family that if she was ever drawn for a tag, she would wear her finest so she'd look good when being interviewed after breaking it. The pearls looked good hanging around her neck Saturday afternoon about 10 hours after she and her crew of husband John Stokes, brother-in-law Kevin Jenkins and his children Savannah, 16, and Parker, 14, brought a monster alligator to the check-in station at Roland Cooper State Park in Camden. Wildlife and Freshwater Fisheries biologists had no trouble measuring the beast at 15 feet even, but they had to call for some relief when trying to weigh it. The first attempt completely destroyed the winch assembly used to easily hoist most average gators, including the Fancher alligator. Enlisting the assistance of a park backhoe to lift it, a WFF biologist officially called the weight at 1,011.5 pounds. Those dimensions easily make the Stokes gator the biggest ever killed in Alabama. An internet search suggests it may be the largest alligator ever legally killed by a hunter anywhere in the world.
