The longest snake I was bit by was a 16 foot Reticulated Python. It was totally my fault though. I was showing him to some younger classmates, and while walking around him I stepped on the tip of his tail. He swung around and tagged me square on my leg. He did not hold on, and luckily there was no real damage beside looking like a pin cushion. The largest snake I was bit by was a 150lb Burm. This was while feeding. I had a rabbit on the 2 foot tongs and the burm blasted past the rabbit and landed below my wrist. As soon as I was tagged I started getting wrapped up. He/She (I forgot what sex). As soon as it happened I called over the owner of the burm. (I was helping feed) (honestly i wasn't very calm at this point so it was more of a yell than a call.) The owner ran to grab the Listerine. We poured a bit on the snake by his mouth, and the burm let go. Luckily I did not need any stitches, and there was no nerve damage or anything. I was just really bruised, and had quite a number of punctures in my arm for a few weeks. Both of these occurred while I was under 18, so they were both my fault. You know I was young dumb, and totally cocky. My friend did get longer tongs after this happened though.
