Ouch. Did you seriously think you'd have the time to pull your hand away if the diplo lunged out? Or you didn't think. Was that the problem?
Great video and kudos for sacrificing yourself for our entertainment sake.
I always underestimated its bite strength, I have hand fed him many times before, this was the first time he did substantial damage.
Was freaking painful, the wound was pretty deep on one side of the finger, bled even after 5 hrs, the above pic was the internal damage caused by compression on the other side, luckily didn't tear flesh.
This is the last time I am. Hand feeding him though.
