There is a man on Youtube who goes by the name "Viperkeeper" and he keeps a large collection of venomous snakes >

The man treats his snakes like toys. He gets in their face, let's king cobra snap at his ankles, teases them, etc. He isn't some crazy snake wrangler, he's just a hobbyist.
What he does strikes me as being ridiculously careless but he's only been bit a few times in the 30? years he's done it. (once on video if you care to find the video) so he must be doing something right (or just incredibly lucky).
I watch him anyway because if he gets bit and dies that's his problem, not mine. I'm just curious as to what some experience snake enthusiast think.
