Mike Posner is known for songs such as "Cooler Than Me" and "I Took a Pill in Ibiza."
(CNN)Grammy-nominated singer and songwriter Mike Posner says he was airlifted to a Colorado hospital after he was bitten by a baby rattlesnake.
Posner, who is known for writing songs such as "Cooler Than Me" and "I Took a Pill in Ibiza,"posted an Instagram video of himself Friday on a hospital gurney.
"That venom is no joke!" he said.
Posner said he was able to get the anti-venom in time, but will have to stay in the hospital for a couple of days and will not be able to walk for weeks.
According to his social media, Posner is walking across the US and releasing a song in each state. But for now, he says he is taking a break from the walk to enjoy a bed and air conditioning.

Snakes get such a bad rep and the news will always try to make things look more dramatic than they actually are to get more views. I wonder how he got himself bit as rattlesnakes rattle so loud and clearly warn you to stay away. Never heard of this singer but I hope he's okay regardless.

Walking while not paying attention where he put his feet... I'm not familiar with him either & bet he'll pay closer attention from now on.
