I nearly laughed when they said it flew. Nigerians too like fictional tales.


You won't believe because you only read it in nairaland, the deceased is a close friend of my sis and believe every word you read there because it's true. I don't believe in sending snake but the snake actually flew at him. The farm is more like a garden because the crop was planted in a secondary school land in the community.

pls look for alcoholic gin and drink as a first aid remedy.
it neutralize the poison
I read the thread from 1st page but yours drew my attention. I dont know how potent this dry gin is if taken alone, but an old man I knew why in school, had a bottle of dry gin, and inside of it is a snake which I learnt from him that it is an antidote. Definitely, you are not far from the truth sir. It might interest you sir to visit my profile, as I may be of help now or in the future. Lots of love

Please explain further. Do u mean the snake should be killed?
No, don't waste time killing it. Just run for your life, run and go get medication as soon as possible.

This is not a Puff Adder..

It is a Gaboon Viper..


I never disputed the specie of snake, kindly read the post I quoted. The guy said he was against the killing of puff adders because of his belief; therefore, I got curious about this strange belief.

Black man with their black sense always linking every event to juju. Puff adder is one of the most poisonous snakes that you don't want to mess with, although it's slow to attack but very dangerous. There is nothing spiritual about the snake killing the man!

This is the 21th century for crying out loud. undecided

gaboon viper

there is a saying in my place, if while you work on the farm and this snake bites you and you are able to resist the urge to kill it and immediately run across to another plot of land you will survive.


Okay.... superstitions done make so many people die.

Babara1994 killingit for a potent antivenom won't suffice because you'd be dead before the next hour and only specialized personnel in the medical field can make the antivenom on short demand from the body of the specimen that bit you. saving your life is paramount in this case.

the gaboon viper is the only snake that delivers the most amount of venom into its victim with a single bite. once you are bitten you will have excess venom in your blood stream. as you struggle to pick cutlass and chase it to kill fhe snake your heart will beat faster thereby pumping more blood around your system to give you the energy you require but at the same time the venok is also spreading faster around your body. that is why you shouldn't bother killing the viper when you notice it has bitten you but immediately and calmly cut a eope/cloth and tie it around the affected part of your body where you were bitten to stop the flow of the venom to your heart, cut open the bite area so blood oozes out and slowly but quickly rush to seek medical attention.

if other vipers inject 50 milligramms of venom into you as they bite you this particular one injects 1 centilitre, meaning it injects over 50 times he usual dose of other vipers in its class.

we call it AjuAla in our place
Ajuala is Boa Constrictor.

Nobody sent anything! Nigerians and their cavemen mentality. When a tragic incident happens they seek out someone to blame!

Snakes don't attack humans unnecessarily. He probably stepped on this viper or walked too close to it. Snakes only attack when they feel threatened. Unless a large Python or Anaconda that would actually see you as a prey.

The guy died because he didn't receive proper medical attention! Be careful while walking in the bush or farm.

Puff Adder, very plenty in my current location. Killed one last two months. Still have the pics.
Never wanted to kill it because it's against my my belief; but the snake was threatening a child who's helpless. I had no choice than to finish it off. sad cool
Oga, exit your current location. Just a friendly warning. You might be caught off-guard one day..

Lemme tell you a little real life story.. While in boarding school in the thick of the bush, we set out to the bush with my friends to excrete. I then saw a wrap of leaves where i was about to my the direction of my ass to. Something just strucked me to use my leg to clear the path. On doing that, instantly a huge snake came off and threw a bite at me, i also withdrew back with the same instant and she missed me by an inch i must say. Since then, i hate snakes with everything in me. I now chase them with long sticks anywhere i see them.

Flying (gliding) snakes exist but they’re not Gaboon vipers

You believe in juju. Those who believe in juju can easily die from it.

A Yankee born who does not believe in Juju has nothing to fear about juju. He can’t just believe like you that someone can invoke a snake in another’s farm, and ask the other to go to his farm. The other goes to the farm and gets fatal bite from the snake. That is voodoo; unbelievable by modern people.

..... U were not there..... I was not there...... I don't see any reason why you should doubt a dead man's account of what happened in his farm.... When he said flew, he may not have meant that the snake grew wings and flew at him..... He could be trying to talk about a sudden and unbelievable leap from one point to another......... No be every thing them dey doubt.... At times e good make we dey understand wetin people mean when them use certain words before we criticize them....

When it reads that the snake dived at him, I suspected Gaboon viper... The picture confirms it. If he had gotten an anti-venom within 15minutes of being bitten, he would have survived it. But his mentality that someone sent the snake might have made him to seek the services of a medicine man or a pastor.

Since their venom glands are enormous, each bite produces the second-largest quantity of venom of any venomous snake; this is partially because, unlike many African vipers, such as the puff adder, the Gaboon viper does not release after a bite, which enables it to inject larger amounts of venom.

For knowledge sake, Gaboon vipers don't glide or fly like some tree snakes do (Gaboons can't even stay on trees). But this snake can coil itself and dive or lunge at a nearby target from the ground at full body length. So when he said fly... That's a pure over statement.
