Yes he was smart enough to check up on antivenom before free handling a gaboon viper, sounds like he's got a real grasp on things. I'd really like to know what is being accomplished by doing this.
I can't think of a single respectable person that would do this for any reason. There is no reason to handle a venomous snake without the proper tools. There are rare instances when it's necessary for someone to put their hands on a venomous snake, but free handling, never.
These are the people who ruin it for everyone.
