A man at Walt Disney World jumped off a bridge and into a lake for an alleged bet.

The park guest allegedly pulled the stunt after he was bet $6,000 to jump into the water of the World Showcase Lagoon.

After removing his sunglasses, the man leaps into the water and then quickly swims to shore, climbing over a prop gondola to reach dry land.
