I've seen that show like 3-4 times and I never felt like they where trying to say the snakes were out to get us. I think they where trying to get folks to understand that big snakes can be dangerous if not handle properly by folks who have done their homework and have some sense.
I mean clearly the idiot who cleaned his chinchilla cages then went to check on his snake is a few bricks shy of a full load, I mean really why not just tie a rat or rabbit around you neck !?!
I think in showing the guy and family they where saying that if your in areas w/ large snakes show some caution.

To many folks buy these big snakes thinking " Oh how cool ,Oh how cute and don't have a clue as to what to do next. At the very end it even gave tips if you were caught by a big snake and ways to get it to release.

I think they should make some a little fighten about these snakes then maybe some of the Yahoo's won't go buy them and have these stupid accidents happen which then makes it bad for the folks who have done homework and who are responsible.

The Rock eating the Antelope was eff-ing awesome.
