Those who would like to see this bill pass are also checking out reptile related forums, and we're just handing them more "fuel" on a silver platter. :rolleyes:
I'd forgotten about this video myself, as it had sunken down into obscurity.
This was the first time I saw it... on the front page of reptilegeeks.com currently :O
Re: Nigel Marvin making a fool of himself on National TV
unbelievable. imagine someone swinging a dog around by their tail... would anyone stand for that on network TV? would anyone be surprised if it snarled? I cannot believe the way these animals were treated.
Re: Nigel Marvin making a fool of himself on National TV
Huge retic!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Re: Nigel Marvin making a fool of himself on National TV
aww i love twinkie :) (the big retic)
one of my friends works at the prehistoric pets where they keep her, she is a sweetie.... except for when she lunged at my buddy lol
anyone in SoCal can go see her, shes in fountain valley and her cage is kinda hard to miss lol
Re: Nigel Marvin making a fool of himself on National TV
these people get on tv and they want to put on a show. they are very careless.
Brady Barr - careless
Austin Stevens - careless
Steve Irwin - careless
Even in Bhb's latest video, the way they harassed the blood pythons was just for the wow factor.
The worse of it all is not how it encourages the anti snake people, but how it encourages the "snake" people.
They go out and handle venomous snakes carelessly, come to the forums, post pictures, and everyone tells them how cool they are.

Awesome retic, but why would he take the ones he knows are nippy and stuff instead of taking the nice calm ones to show people? People already know snakes bite, they don't believe in calm ones, so why not show them on National TV?

Yep, that was a stupid move on his part. Conan was kind of funny how he was running back and hiding though. He really over-reacted though, but who can blame him with an idiot showing what he did.
Re: Nigel Marvin making a fool of himself on National TV
clearly it was for the most part scripted....the blood on his neck was in no way real. He kept wiping it and it never moved. It was awfully perfect.
While I do find some of it funny....I get that it was scripted and they brought the more agressive snakes. To the average person...they are wild ppl killing creatures and not something that is good for us right now. You just drove the nail in what most ppl think about reptiles.
Just my opinion

Actually if I recall, the blood slowly ran down from the start to finish. Also I don't recall him wiping it.
