I wish ppl in the comments would stop acting like a snake is supposed to act like anything else but a snake
admire how large my snake is
we all understand that he suffered from low self esteem
Why a smart snake
Idiocracy….people are not smart..regardless of what a good deed was done.
yeah I would say the snake was on the attack….it acts on instinct.
Yep has the White House been notified about this?
RIP. I wish they had said what kind of snake it was.
I want a pet hyena if y’all can have killer snakes
Just nature weeding out the weak and dumb. Play stupid games ,win stupid prizes. And the dudes last name. lol
Stupid people problems!
Guy didn’t know any jujitsu and got slept by a creature 20x smaller !
it was his own safety he neglected.. your never supposed to handle any large snakes alone for this reason. almost everyone who owns a snake or knows about them know this very clearly. some people think they are very skilled and are the exception to the rule, but why? why not just be safe then sorry? just don’t. that’s it.
Whyte people issues.
To all snake 🐍 lovers….this can happen to you too.

When are people going to learn
White people……
This is the second snake victim in two weeks. You'd think they'd learn.
They have a home, in the wild!
Once the animal is wild, undomesticated, feral take caution when caring for it, it will never be a pet.
It really doesn't matter if your intentions are altruistic in nature, when helping a wild animal/reptile. You need to be prepared to defend yourself in the worst case, if you intend to help more animals/reptiles in the future.
In this case, it does seem like a good knife, close at hand, might have saved the young man's life.
The goal of saving/rehabilitating the snake was noble in nature, but be prepared for the worst … even if you're not a Boy Scout.
If you have small kids plus a constrictor snake like a boa or python as a house pet, that is "no bueno".
