People in Africa get killed all the time by boomslangs which are a tree going rear fanged colubrid that have venom that rivals some of the most deadly snakes in the world. They are ranked up there with puff adders and mambas as one of Africas most feared snake. There are a couple other rear fang colubrids that could knock you on your rear end with with there venom. It may not kill you but their venom could still have some pretty nastey affects.
