PresidentDonald Trump‘s eldest son took to Instagram on Sunday to share a photo of himself in what he said was a “gator-infested swamp” during a weekend trip to Louisiana.

Trump Jr., 40, explained that he jumped into the murky and potentially dangerous waters on a bet. “This is what happens when someone bets me a good sum that there’s no way that the guy from New York City would swim in a gator infested swamp/bayou down in Louisiana,” he captioned the photo. “Easy money!!!”

“Great day in the Louisiana bayou for LA Attorney General Jeff Landry’s annual gator hunt,” Trump Jr. captioned another photo with Guilfoyle and Scalise. “Great food, great friends, great times.”
