snake

Heads up, there's a fair bit of surprised swearing in this video.

It's a little TOO close to this

"Hey kids, have'ya fished the snake out of the pool yet? I got the barbie nice and hot already!"

What could go wrong with this, right?

"A shocking video has emerged of Brazilian activist Arteval Duarte getting bitten by a snake during a stunt in July.

The footage, shot in Jacunda, Brazil, shows the 'Ninja of Serpents' getting bitten by the large snake as he tries to put its head in his mouth where he already holds a tarantula.

His face is left covered in blood, but he doesn't seem to mind all that much.

Arteval regularly performs stunts like this to raise awareness about deforestation in the Amazon. Sometimes, they go wrong.

Here's what the husband had to say in a Facebook post later:

WHOOPS!!! Note to self: Next time I have a 1.5m snake loose in my car, don't let my wife drive it. […]

A couple of days earlier I had a python escape from a bag (mistake no.1) inside my car and Nat knew this but had assumed I had found it again and I didn't tell her otherwise (Mistake no.2).

Last night I was sound asleep and I get a call from her saying "I just opened the door and there was a snake coming out from underneath the steering wheel in the dashboard". Whoops!!!!

My bad.
