Still finding my way around.

My god, what a response! I will be more careful what I say and do on here in future. There was more venom than in a pit full of vipers! lol.

As marvel said, it is only out of care for you and your animal, hope we havent scared you off!

Must admit I was taken aback! My initial enthusiasm for seeing so many responses was rather deflated when I read the content of most of them.

i taught judo mate

i can put you out in 3 or 4 seconds mate only using 1 hand and the neck of your tee shirt.or i can apply enough pressure with 1 finger of each hand for the same effect.i use it to demonstrate to folk how easy it is to knock someone unconcious

we have a rule in the club if you get let yourself become unconcious instead of tapping out.you are banned for 6 weeks from the club.this is to give you time to think hard about how serious it is to allow yourself to be in that position

its just way to easy to induce brain damage for it not to be taken serious mate

the point im trying to make is it takes very LITTLE pressure to close shut a vien.

the only thing keeping your vien open is your blood pressure and thats not hard to stop the flow of mate


ive taught judo for over 20 years and if i shut your cartoid arterys down your out in 3 or 4 seconds

brain damage will start mildly after 10 ish seconds

20 to 30 seconds will lead to permenant damage

shutting the cartoids down immediatley starves the brain of oxygen

dont want an arguement im only pointing out basic human anatomy mate

cheers shaun

theres no need to feel deflated mate

folk are only showing concern for your well being

surely thats nothing to get deflated about ?

snakes round peoples necks are something herpers feel strongly about as it can lead to death

there have been reported cases in the states of snakes being spooked and strangling their keepers

it dont take much to stop the blood flowing through your cartoid arterys and you will be uncocious within seconds

people are just trying to point out the dangers mate

please dont take it as a personal attack

its personal concern for your well being nothing more

all the best shaun
