I rewatched the video, and honestly I just think Kenan is clearly inexperienced with these animals and was afraid of the snake in that situation. I dont think he was sensationalizing or hamming it up, I think he was scared of the animal. You can argue that boradcasting this footage was in poor taste because he didnt know what he was doing, but I really dont see it as that big of a deal. Its easy to armchair quarterback them and say they should have done x y or z. But they moved the animal from point a to point b without putting anyone (the snake included) in harms way. I say Id chalk that up as a win.
