Wade Westbrook
A 26-year-old Tennessee man named Wade Westbrook had an odd fascination with snakes . His mother had said that he was once bitten after picking up a copperhead and had survived after getting the antivenom.

In January 2011, a friend brought a venomous copperhead snake to Wade’s home. The police don’t believe that this man was keeping the snake as an illegal pet, although snakes normally hibernate in the winter.
The friend wanted to know the snake’s gender, and Wade was the local “snake expert.” In Tennessee, even transporting a snake requires a permit, so everything about this exchange was ill-advised.


Not surprisingly, the snake bit Wade. Instead of calling 911, he attempted to extract the venom from the bite. But Wade passed out. Scared and unsure of what to do next, the friend didn’t call an ambulance until Wade had been unconscious for 10 minutes and it was clear that his DIY antivenom had failed.
Wade died before he could reach the
hospital .

Agreed.

Even my lil nephew of 4yra knew to run and call for help when he saw a snake in the compound.

Then a grown ass man will pick up a snake to show his kids. Smh

Maybe villages are also in oyibo land. And the village people know thier jobs

Why do I have this feeling that like mosquito bites, white people have very little immunity to snake bites.

30 minutes for death after a vernomous bite?

Never been beaten by a snake, but have over 3 friends who have and they survived long hours before using native concoction treatment.

Re: 10 Horrifying Stories Of People Killed By Snakes by xdos(m): 1:50pm On Feb 25, 2018
I wasnt expecting to see a Nigerian die from Snake bite unless it is a village call.
We are not that stupid to keep snakes in the house. Did someone just say Buratai.... Check history, he may not be a Nigerian.
Nigerians and snakes are worst enemies. We dont thread same path let alone keep them in the house. Once a Nigerian see a snake, the first unconscious thing he does is to look for stone, matchet, stick or RUN!

Except for the last 2 stories, they were all cases of "trouble dey sleep, yanga go wake am". However, there are some people who by virtue of their profession, have to deal with snakes.

Karl P. Schmidt
Karl P. Schmidt was working as a
herpetologist (snake expert) at the Chicago Natural History Museum in 1957. An employee from the Lincoln Park Zoo brought Schmidt a green snake that no one could identify with any of their books, so they needed an expert opinion.


Schmidt had discovered new species of snakes before, so he was excited about the possibility that they had found another new creature. While he was examining the snake, it bit him. He quickly realized that it was a venomous boomslang snake.

At the time, boomslang antivenom was only available in Africa, so he knew that he was destined to die. Instead of going to the hospital, Schmidt took the academic approach. He wrote down all his symptoms until the moment he died. Due to his documentation, future herpetologists knew every excruciating detail about how the venom made him bleed from nearly every part of his body
This on died a hero. May he rest in the bossom of the Lord for his selflessness!!!

You really don't know what lurks behind your neighbour's doors. The other day a 14ft African Rock python, which reportedly has not been fed for a month, escaped and slithered into the vents and plumbing of a block of new flats in Exeter - leaving residents terrified for their safety.

Bad way to go. Though I feel little pity for those ones that will see a venomous snake and 'bend down to pick it up' as if it was a toy. How much more stupid can some people be? Just smh
Bro.... the guy didn't know it was venemous. ... but TV has made sooo many to really believe that wild animals period are not dangerous...they are all like pets. I'm almost sure he never thought for a moment the snake would bite him...and am almost sure he was taking it for his kids to play ...and have a wonderful experience!

Arslan Valeev
A young Russian man named Arslan Valeev worked as a zookeeper. In 2017, he accused his wife, Katya, of cheating on him and beat her so badly that she had a concussion. She left him immediately, filed for a divorce, and refused to answer his phone calls.

In a desperate last-ditch attempt to get her attention, Valeev started filming live streams on his YouTube channel, saying how sorry he was for beating Katya. In his very last live stream, he said that he would rather die than live without her.

He held up a black mamba snake, allowed it to bite his finger, and showed the bloody bite with tears in his eyes. He gave out Katya’s phone number, encouraging viewers to reach out to her so that she could come to his house to see him one last time.

He tried to stand up to reach for something in the room, but the venom took hold of his body faster than he had anticipated. His eyes rolled back, and his death was broadcast live.
No one called his ex. Only one viewer called an ambulance for Valeev. By the time the medics arrived, it was too late. According to one of his friends, Valeev didn’t plan to commit suicide. He had the antivenom on hand and was just trying to pull a dramatic stunt to trick Katya into showing up. Clearly, it backfired.

Some men are completely worthless! So nobody could help make the call to save his life? If it was a woman that was bitten by a snake and put us such a stunt watch the worthless fools falling over themselves to call!
