...I just watched a video that said you should grab them as quick as possible...

Here's the thing: if you like getting bit, you should follow that advice, because when you keep acting like a predator to a snake, it will never learn to trust you & relax.
Me, I enjoy handling snakes that know they have nothing to fear from me, & it's up to US to convey that thru the way we handle them.

Can you imagine being a snake...nearsighted, deaf, & then here comes this giant creature that grabs you! -like a predator would! Does that seem friendly to you?

I've talked to snake keepers who persist in doing things like that...they insist that snakes can never be trusted not to bite. Wonder why... If you want to be trusted,
you have to be trustworthy. It's a "two way street".
