Yes, Florida Man literally means “a man from Florida”, or in a more French translation, “Floridien”. But the original version has another meaning for the title of the new Netflix mini-series, which has no equivalent in the French vocabulary!
Because on the other side of the Atlantic, the expression Florida Man, especially used by the media, refers to the incredible and inexplicable acts committed by men living in Florida and most often reported in the news section.
The Twitter account, which is followed by more than 340,000 people, has fun listing all the things the “Florida Men” have done, like riding their bikes upside down on the highway (!), or even accidentally setting their own car on fire in revenge. At the garage responsible for impounding the car.

But Florida Man has another meaning as it is a nickname given by some American comedians to… Donald Trump because the former US President has a residence in Palm Beach, South Florida.
The Florida Man mini-series is now available exclusively on Netflix.
