Is this for real??? Guy free handling King Cobras, other hots..

Totally irresponsible and dangerous. Mostly, it's unnecessary knowing what we know about "hots".This is one of the reasons the laws are making it more and more difficult going forward and behavior that is frowned upon by U.S.A.R.K. I didn't even care to watch the video, just wanted to post my opinions.

While free handlers are frowned upon due to unneeded risk - it is more so the massive amount of irresponsible keepers that have snakes escape that get keepers in hot spots. Even though I don't fully support free handling, I feel compelled to remind folks that the top reasons for individuals getting hit by a venomous snake is:

1) attempting to kill if
2) drunk handling
3) boasting/ showing off

Free handlers rarely get bit, but when they do it definitely does make the news (more so on snake preachers and exhibitionist in India - more so see boasting category).
