I was on YouTube browsing for educational videos of my newest addition, when I stumbled on this video of a guy holding an adult Cryptelytrops macrops (big-eyed pit viper) in his bare hands....he's letting it loose in his hands. From the animal's posture and size, it could easily have bitten any one of his fingers, anywhere on his arm, and possibly reached his face at points. While it did not strike at him, it COULD HAVE. It absolutely infuriates me that people post videos like this on the internet! I don't care how "tame" your venomous snake is, it is still an unpredictable wild animal, and all it takes is one instance of you startling the animal, or something setting off a food or fear response, and your life is forever changed, or even over.
