Dumb Video, *warning* most defintely will upset you

The guy that got bit needs to invest in a toothbrush or I guess should have invested in a tooth brush.

Second how can you say they were trying to teach the snake to be aggressive to or towards anything??? All they did was place a rodent in front of the snake and get the rodent smell in the air than place their very warm hand in front of it's nose, kinda like a lot of folks have been bitten and choose to call a " feeding error "
While I whole heartly agree what they did was wrong and folks like them shouldn't own anything at all because there idiots. And the fact the video has no place being on here, I do think folks on here tend to overreact and jump to conclusions ie teaching them to hate human smell , be aggressive etc

There "trick" was a mistake quite a few novice snake owners have made =
Food and then hand to close to mouth.

Also the member who posted this has posted a few other vidoes that really should not have been posted on here, go figure!

Wow... if they think it's cool to make wannabe Jackass videos at the expense of already misunderstood animals, they are mistaken

that wasn't at the expense of the animal, that animal already bit obviously, did you not hear the guy at the end say "i knew it was going to happen", the snake was obviously a biter before and if you call rubbing the snakes head provoking then I provoke mine all the time but you don't see me getting bit on the hand. Sorry guys that I don'tsee this as wrong, snakes bite. Me and my fiance go down to a local lake and catch snakes when we try to touch them they bite and we laugh is this wrong if we video tape it and put it on the web so people can laugh at us?

I kept a water snake once that I caught but then I let her go. What snakes do you usually find and take pictures of? Alan kept a water moccasin for a week then let him go. He was a baby and was very cute and surprisingly tame. He is a venophile.

I'm usually on the hunt for 100% pure bred mississippi black snake, but it ain't easy to find in these parts. :sweeet:

I just found the whole thing unnecessary, and I'm sure most of the viewers are not going to have a lot of knowledge about snakes, and it's just going to feed the bad reputation fire that snakes have for many people.

And he is lucky he only got struck at.

we probably have those here we live close-ish to mississippi. But I've yet to see one on our hunt for snakes. Just a whole lot of water snakes/moccasins, black king snakes, blue racers, ribbon snakes, and garter snakes.

I agree with you on that will stir up the already bad reputation of snakes. But I do not agree with some of the people that said it was animal cruelty, now if he gave that snake a good punch to the face then I would agree that that was creulty but rubbing the head was not abuse. But again i do agree with the bad rep thing.
