A pilot has been rescued after spending nine hours in Florida’s Everglades after his small plane crashed.
The Florida Everglades are the only waters where man-eating crocodiles share the same space as alligators.
Video shared by Miami-Dade Fire Rescue shows the man sitting on the plane’s wing, while waiting to be rescued, before a helicopter came to his aid.
The man was taken to hospital and had minor injuries.
