    Personally I thought it was rather dumb. Of course the snake is going to eat his finger, it's about the size of a mouse and it doesn't realize it's attached to the hand. I really want to know what he did to get it to bite his finget to begin with.

    I don't think it's that bad. Yeah, a stupid person could be strangled to death by a ball, but I doubt one ever would. They're pretty much harmless.

    On top of making a stupid, pointless video, he's going to stress that snake out for no reason when he pulls his finger out.

    Yupp, kinda like making it regurgitate a meal since the finger is mistaken as a meal it COULD affect the snakes appetite.

    Yea and ive heard of snakes dying from a bad regurg. I'm sure the chances are slim with that happening from his finger but why would you even want to risk that with one of your animals. If you care that little about it then give it to somebody else.

    I agree, but they do care for them and are a huge breeder.

    I'd like to give him the benefit of the doubt and say the snake started eating his finger so he grabbed a camera. I'm pretty sure once the snake reached his hand it would start to spit it out too, but he might have had to remove it.

    The snake is not going to die from that, it is not the same as a regurgitation.

    As far as stress? I really do not see an animal that is stressed out.

    I have had the odd BP mosy over and eat my finger, as well as the odd colubrid.

    The whole thing seems pretty light hearted to me.
