The snake looks like quite a handful. I would have left the room at least once, I will not be trying that at home!

The other one posted is part two, this link is to the first part video of it. They dump it out of the bag and the hi-jinx begin!

What's the big deal? It was a snake that was unsettled by being on a surface on which it could not get good traction, and trying to find some sort of refuge. Note that it did not try to bite once, and never tried to get back at the hand holding on to its rear-end. While I would not personally want a large elapid crawling over my trainers, it did not look like an out-of-control or particularly hairy situation to me.
The same thing with a pitviper would be a lot scarier.
Cheers,
WW

It took me a bit to understand your reply. It is the snake I'm responding to. If the video were taken through the glass of a zoo exhibit or out in the wild I would still be saying - Yikes! That looks like one heck of a snake!
I didn't mean to imply that the people don't know what they were doing, they obviously do. It is that I am not used to that snake behavior / movement, and that I would stand back and keep out of the way. Well out of the way!
Andy
