Haha, I hope you realize he was being extremely sarcastic.
Also, animal planet really has gone down into the gutters, that guy was an idiot and clearly could not intemperate the body language of the snake even with the obvious nature it had, that is a clear example of pissing a snake off and getting what you deserve. Then he even rips the mouth off of his face, another bad move leaving teeth in his face.
Also, I love how the announcer says 'Unlike rattlesnakes, boas are not Poisonous', some educational show. Also 'Literally squeezing the breath out of their prey' was another good one.
