Twitter is discovering its inner Florida Man. Let us explain…
For anyone who regularly follows the news of the day, it’s not uncommon to see a headline that begins with “Florida Man” and ends with something bats**t crazy. Just from a quick pull from our records, we found this gem: Florida Man Immune To Tasers Because He Thought He Was Thor. (Tbh, that’s one of the tamer headlines out there.)
Apparently, someone on Twitter caught wind of the bizarre pattern and decided to make a viral challenge out of it — thus, the #FloridaManChallenge was born. And it’s easy to do!
Just type in the words “Florida Man” into your search engine, followed by your birthday, and the first story that appears is your *very own* Florida Man story.

Let’s use Khloé Kardashian, who famously took Miami, Florida on multiple occasions, as an example. KoKo’s birthday is June 27, so her Florida Man would be: Naked Florida Man Stood In A Fire And Chanted ‘Gibberish’.
Florida local Ariana Grande was born on June 14. So, her Florida Man would be: Florida Man Says He Only Grabbed His Mother By The Head To Kiss Her. We didn’t say they were all great.
But Twitter users are finding some pretty bonkers stories that could apparently only happen in the Sunshine State. Here are a few insane headlines social media users found: Florida Man Arrested For Tranquilizing & Raping Alligator In Everglades, Florida Man Arrested For Fondling Himself At Community Pool, Cites Invisible Lesbians, and Florida Man Shot At Roommate Over Cat Hair On Couch.
Ch-ch-check some of them out (below)!
Florida Man does not disappoint.
But why is so much weird stuff going down in, what Tracy Morgan called in an episode of 30 Rock, “the penis of America?”
It could be the sweltering heat. Or living in constant fear of hurricanes and vacationing Trump family members. That’s definitely enough to make anyone go mad.

Or it could be the fact that Florida has a Sunshine Law that guarantees all public records of government bodies are available to the public, like police reports. Meaning, the state can’t hide it’s dirty laundry like, say, the shady people of Connecticut can.
So, if you want to life your best, most unapologetic life… you know where to go.
What’s YOUR Florida Man?
