Is it hard for some people to believe that some venomous snakes can be handled freely? The question is do you want to take that chance?
We all know man has a fascination of living on the edge and the need to feel almost God like. I'm not pointing at everyone but only to the fact there are people who live on the extreme edge. I think most venomous keepers get some sort of adrenaline rush. Sure over time that rush may fade or go away but when we first got started we all had that rush and excitement. Ok not everyone takes it as far as this guy did in the video but there are people out there who do it. Some call them stupid just like some people call us stupid for owning them. I guess it’s how far you will go and how far others will push the stupid bar up. (like sticking an Eastern Diamondback in your mouth) Let’s look at the religious snake handlers. Stupid?
I strongly believe some venomous snakes can be handtame (so to speak) but the question is, do you want to take that risk?
