The guy with a 10 foot snake reached in to "help" it eat and apparently he's alone whilst doing so? Well there was a disaster waiting to happen and one that pretty much anyone can figure out is going to happen if you do stupid things like that. Heck unless it was a matter of emergency and the snake's well being is at risk, I stay back and let the snake handle it or would use a long set of tongs or something reasonable like that. Not stick my bare hand in with any feeding snake I don't care what size it is.

I like the info on this thread. Makes a lot of sense to me that anything over 8 feet you should have someone close at hand in case of problems. These sorts of needless incidents getting press only do all of us harm.

There should be a law that humans have to have three more working brain cells than any creature they wish to own LOL.
