what was the biggest croc that ever bit you? awesome story

[@cballantyne1534]

My worst bite was Burmese python, it’s cage was high up and the snake was coiled around a branch in the opposite corner of its cage, when it bit me, and I was stretching up. The snake was only about 8 foot long, but I was alone and basically had to tire the snake out. It took me about 30 to 40 minutes to get my hand free, I had no serious damage and didn’t see a doctor. I too have been very lucky been keeping snakes since 1978 and never been bitten by a venomous snake. Had some close calls, once sat on a pillow case with two cape cobras in it. I was working with a lot of them in 89, relocating them from army camps to a nature reserve. Lived in Africa till 2000 collected snakes from all over the world. I now live in Taiwan my enthusiasm to keep snakes has waned but I live in the countryside and find snakes all the time, I usually just move them off of the road. But now and then I find a specimen some venomous some not that just shouts take me home with you.

[@truthseeker6584]

"once sat on a pillow case with two cape cobras in it" - man, I do hope you thanked your guardian angel afterwards, he sure needed to recover for three days from the stress you caused him ;-)

[@cballantyne1534]

Truth Seeker for sure. I got such a fright when I realized I had sat on the snakes, I honestly didn’t know if I had got bitten or not. I was in panic mode. Plus it was my ass cheek, with a couple of pimples. I looked in the mirror, and was almost positive I had got bitten. I turned green I felt so sick. I was in the army and went into the kitchen and asked a cook to keep an eye on me. I told him if I pass out or start acting crazy, to call an ambulance because I might have been bitten by a cape cobra. While I was sitting waiting to see if I felt any venomous effects another cook who knew nothing of my predicament walked passed and asked me if I was oK because I looked sick. Almost shat myself when he asked that. Damn scary. I wasn’t bitten, but it was real close.

[@truthseeker6584]

[@bassbuckmaster]

Some of the best ideas come from nature ... much like the lizards that lose their tail, snake owners could clip on two arms on a custom made shirt with buttons just under the armpits. If a snake goes postal they will bite the clipped on arm. And even if the snake doesn't bite having a extra set of hands is useful opening up a world of multi tasking.

Everybody yanks their hand away the first time. Luckily I've only been nicked on the tip of my index finger, because somehow I saw it coming out of the corner of my eye. As usual my fault, I was hand feeding(dangling) rodents to the pythons and I looked away for a split second when someone walked into the room. Nobody was allowed to come in during feeding times, but............ From then on I locked the door. No matter how you slice it..... ultimately my fault. I really like your channel.

[@abdullahameen772]

I know it sounds silly but if you bite the snake on his tail he will let go of his bite immediately. You don't have to bite hard just a good firm bite on his tail is all it takes. I have done this a few times, with one time having to bite a 15' African rock pythons tail to get her to release her bite on my forearm.

[@smokeeater8387]

I think it would be a good idea to have a can of pepper spray or bear mace for some of the bigger situations at the ready. There’s not many animals that won’t let go if you hit them in the chops with an eye and nose scorching concoction. If it’s life or death situation it’s a no brainer, the snakes or crocs will recover👍🇺🇸

[@scottjackson163]

I had a boa constrictor bite me. (Completely my fault.) I had it out on the floor in front of me. I touched it at about the midpoint between head and tail. The snake turned its head back quickly and bit the crap out of me, latching on to my arm with its teeth. I jerked my arm back so aggressively that the snake went flying across the room in the opposite direction and hit the wall. Both of us came out of the encounter substantially unscathed and I managed to put the boa back in its cage.

[@Rocketman88002]

@venomman20 Years ago and I mean in the 50's there was a place in Florida that produced antivenom for venomous snake bites. Read about it in one of the popular publications of the day. The article spoke of an affiliation with that snake farm in Brazil that produced antivenom. Just wondered how prepared such places are to supply antivenom to hospitals. A coworker was walking one evening around his neighborhood and got struck by a rattler. There was only a vial or two of antivenom at the local hospital so he was airlifted to El Paso where they were short many vials. The hospital sent for more antivenom from out if state! I vowed never to put myself in a situation where I could get envenomated by a venomous snake. The incident I just mentioned happened in the desert; prime Western Diamondback habitat. I believe many people are under the false conviction that there is an abundance of antivenom to treat snake bites and that isn't the case at all. Word to the wise: Don't get bit by a venomous snake. Know where the closest medical facility that can treat snake bite is located.

[@venomman20]

Yeah not many stock the antivenin I need but the one I am Local 2 while handling all the snakes has all the antivenin I need

[@bootcampbarrow]

Anti venom expires too quickly to stock in abundance at hospitals is what we were told after a copperhead bite.

You said this 9 ft anaconda bit your hand then began coiling your arm up to the shoulder. Then you said lucky it wasn't one of the large anacondas or you would have been dead. How would you imagine one of the large anacondas would have went about constricting you if it first grabbed your hand? I assume it would not have started coiling your arm but would have started going straight around your torso?

Scary bedtime stories any time of the day. New video suggestion: Please cover the Psychology of Reptiles, in that a nine-foot constrictor takes on a six-foot man. I mean: I've seen large snakes inhale pigs but what was going through the snake's mind? Did it really think that it could eat you whole? Did it not know that your arm was part of a larger 'animal'. Sorry, man I just don't get it. Also, if you could answer just in a comment format: I saw a video of crocs in the billabong where they stuck a camera down the gullet and there was nothing but ascarid roundworms lining the throat all the way out to the exit. Are captive gators and crocs relatively parasite free or do they get pretty nasty hitchhikers? Cheers.
