It would have been funny if he was stuck in the face by another one when he was crawling ashore.

@BWCmike the snakes venom is poison, there is no developing an immunity to poison. either you are born immune by genetics, or you are vulnerable. especially when the lethality is measured by the single drop, as in snake venom.

I nearly walked into a coil in the Texas Panhandle while birding. The rattling alerted me it was 12 feet away in open cut grass on a refuge. I just stood totally appalled at this four foot long western diamondback with his head raised. Slowly backstepping, I raised my binoculars to see it stretch out straight and crawl into its underground burrow. Had I been hit Lubbock was 60 miles away with refuge personnel all gone home on a late Saturday afternoon!

first off u dont mess with rattlers if u dont no what ur doin. secound if u do get bit dont put the bitten spot in ur mouth and suck on it,ur only making it worse by the posion absorbing in ur mouth that just makes it get in ur system even faster.so the bottom line is stay the hell away from posiness snakes dude,u wanna take a picture of a snake take a pic of a gardner snake

Why is it that I dont get the creeps when I watch a video about snake bites but I do when I see a video about Spider bites?

now that hes been bitten and had the anti venom, his body i think will be more immune
