    Ugh ugh, I got even more disturbed reading it and reading about how someone was explaining how someone got a "degloving" bite from a retic where it peeled the skin from their wrist to their finger tips.

    Yep. It was a burm.

    Also...dang! That is the worst bite I have seen by far. I've hear of the possible damage a large constrictor can inflict, but to see it...has a whole different effect. Crazy! Glad the guy's okay.

    That degloving bite would be a bad one! Degloving is soo soo gross just not right seeing that much hand bones lol I seen one while doing a shadowing in the emergency room, fascinating like if your into medical and all that a degloving is one you can't take your eyes off but if your belly is a weaker one I recommend not looking.

    can't be worse than a faceoff . . . but yeah, there was no pictures of the degloving, just a mention of one in a post

    I dont see how a snake bite could cause a degloving injury and peel back the skin from the wrist to the finger tips...?

    Nasty bite that the OP posted, glad to hear the guys ok.

    I could see it if a big enough snake got hand in its mouth bit down and twisted (which would tear all the skin up) then the person pulled their hand back and off comes the skin since the snake still has a hold of it in a way. (No teeth threw the degloved skin but inside the opening pushing the skin off as the hand is pulled out.)

    Yea maybe. Idk. I picture the bites more as grabbing on tight rather than twisting and tearing. Id have to see it to believe it :p
