Yes, but the bite of a Black Mamba can kill 10 people easily. And no, his mouth was not taped. I was fortunate enough to see his black. SCARY!!!!!!!!!!
Tonight I held the deadliest kind of animal I could have possibly held!

there are several alledged pictures of constrictors that have eaten people and so far each has proven to be a fraud, doesn't mean it can't happen.fishnutham said:
Not to be a jerk, but there are no credible documented cases of any snake eating a full grown human. (According to Jeff Corwin and Steve Erwin.)
I agree, I would never own a venomous snake. I prefer not to worry about the kids. Reptileman came to my town to hold a show. When he was taking a picture of me and my kids with a Burmese Python, I asked him what I would have to pay to get a picture with his Black Mamba. This is the part that will really bug you...10 bucks! But it is ironic that I paid to be less than a foot from a freakin' Black Mamba's mouth! I'm posting a picture, but it will be on a new thread.

ish.......scaaaary.Fabio's Dad said:Any kind of animal enthusiast would think this is cool. I know it's not about fish but.....tonight I had the honor and thrill of holding a freakin' BLACK MAMBA!!!!!!!
As soon as I get the poloroid scanned, I'll post it!
There was an atricle that was posted in the lounge awhile back about a snake that ate a fisherman, I dont remeber if its credible or not though I just remeber reading it. None the less here in fl snakes have been able to eat alligators of a pretty big size so it wouldnt suprize me if they could eat a fullgrown human, maybe not male but def. female humans. I mean if a snake could try to eat and digest a big gator as in bigger than a fullgrown man of average size (although failing and exploding) Iam sure a full grown human may not be so impossible.Then again I dont thnk they were constricters(sp) but I mean in gen. Iam to lazy to go back and see if you just mean one type of snake.Thats just my 2 cents, I am no expert at all so I could def. be wrong I just seen weird things in FL so I guess nothing would suprise me when it comes to things like that!Fabio's Dad said:
Anyways thats cool that you got your picture with that snake though
i got rid of all my hots i had a gaboon i held it free hand once they feel really cool but i had 4 friends with me that were very familier with hot snakes i would not remove it unless 2 of them were here also had some copper heads and rattlers not worth the risk anymore sold them at a herp show to a friend
