Anyone else afraid of dropping their snake/lizard/etc because it bit you?

So far I've been able to overcome my reflex to let go.

thats good, imo, the best way is to always expect a bite no matter what, that way when it happens, you'll have already been ready

also, mine fell probably 5 1/2-6feet to the floor (carpeted) out of his tank when he escaped one night, he didnt get hurt at all though, but it was kinda funny, i was half asleep and i heard a big thump lol, i found him behind the dresser his tank was on
