  • diggdong, on 10/10/2007, -33/+13Cutting a snake in half is not decapitating it.
    • pizzler, on 10/10/2007, -4/+28RTFA
      • Otto, on 10/10/2007, -9/+1Okay then, FTA: "They pinned it with a pipe and cut off its head with a shovel."

        diggdong is absolutely correct: That's cutting it in half. Unless they are *way* more accurate with a shovel than I could ever be. "Decapitating" a snake means cutting no further back than 3 inches from the front of the snake. Anything more will leave the front half alive for a short time.
        • juckman, on 10/10/2007, -1/+9WHAT?! FTA: "Cut off its head with a shovel". Definition of decapitation: "to cut off the head of; behead:" from Random House. WHAT ARE YOU SMOKING!?
    • juckman, on 10/10/2007, -2/+14Seriously? I don't have the SLIGHTEST idea how you got "cutting a snake in half".
      • alexforcefive, on 10/10/2007, -1/+3I think he's going on the assumption that a truly decapitated snake could not turn around and bite someone. If it was cut in half at least the story sort of makes sense
        • theholycow, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1I'll believe that a truly decapitated snake's head could bite, but not that it could turn around.
    • lasko, on 10/10/2007, -1/+19you're right, cutting a snake in half isnt decapitating it, but the article didnt say anything about cutting a snake in half.
  • TheBasass, on 10/10/2007, -0/+50We had a lot of rattle snakes where I used to live. Their bodies would generally flop around for a good ten minutes after you cut off their head. Also their urine is highly acidic. Our 90 year old neighbor had scars over half his face because he squeezed a dead snake too hard when he was a kid and it squirted him. Because of that we always handled the dead snakes with a shovel and buried them soon after we killed them.
    • skinjester, on 10/10/2007, -1/+6like the Alien in the first Alien movie?
    • AndrewDB, on 01/10/2008, -1/+5Where the hell did you live? The Nostromo or its shuttle the Narcissus ?
    • nodonoug, on 10/10/2007, -0/+10My dad and I killed a water moccasin in Florida a few years ago with a shovel, and the head was curled back trying to bite the shovel for a good two minutes. It even left twin trails of venom. We would've buried it right away, except that we had to bring the head to the vet hospital with us to make sure they could ID the snake (it has just bitten our dog on the snout).
    • molossus, on 10/10/2007, -7/+2Retarded statement all around. First off, why the ***** are you killing them? Secondly, their urine being acidic is pure *****. If you had your facts straight you wouldn't be cutting their heads off to begin with.
      • CatalystGhost, on 10/10/2007, -1/+1First off, do you wanna live near a bunch of easily-pissed highly-venomous snakes? Didn't think so. That's why he killed them.
        Secondly, yeah, I agree that the urine thing is pretty much BS. I can't find a damn thing on it. I mean, all urine IS technically slightly acidic, but not to a major degree.
      • TheBasass, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Hey, the guy had scars covering half his face, and he told us it was from snake urine, and I have no reason not to believe him. As CatalystGhost pointed out you don't want deadly snakes hanging around your home and livestock. We didn't kill every snake we saw, just the ones in ares where they could cause a problem.
        • CatalystGhost, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1I'm still inclined to discount the idea that it was the urine that burned him. Is it possible that some of the venom might've leaked out and gotten over him, maybe even mixing with urine or something like it? That seems more probable to me.
      • chalkboy, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5You must be from a city. Rattlesnakes are highly aggressive and if you don't kill them they will kill you. Not all animals are nice and cuddly and misunderstood. They will kill you.
      • gwolf, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2They aren't exactly on the endangered list. I wont risk some little kid getting bitten if I can help it.
  • TheSavant, on 10/10/2007, -0/+46I have always been told to not chop off a snake's head for this very reason. Always smash the head if you can.
    • blackfog, on 10/10/2007, -4/+16...or blow away it's head with a 12 gauge shotgun, that's what i used to do as a kid.
      • Travisty2012, on 10/10/2007, -0/+34...or shoot it with your 9 mil, just don't kill the 5 year old boy standing close by...
      • Roger, on 10/10/2007, -9/+11...or just not kill them.
        • jj9000, on 10/10/2007, -3/+15Roger you are being ridiculous.
        • Babygirl86, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3Sometimes your only option is to kill them. My grandma lives in KY and they have copperheads, rattlers and water moccasins down there.After a flood they're everywhere you look. I'd rather my family killed them then get bit because they didn't.
        • chalkboy, on 10/10/2007, -2/+2Ignore him he is probably from southern California and does not understand the real world.
        • subtle, on 10/10/2007, -1/+1How about jelly, Babygirl86, do they have jelly?
        • Rustbelt, on 10/10/2007, -2/+1Roger, put the bong down. You've had enough. The only good snake is a dead snake.
    • greg2000, on 10/10/2007, -4/+15I thought you were supposed to beat it over the head using a 90 year old man
    • Soave, on 10/10/2007, -4/+6I thought you were supposed to shoot them out of a tree with a pistol and accidentally hit a kid when you miss.
    • fadetoone, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1According to my friend, this kind of thing really does happen frequently. ...Wonder why this story happened to make the news.
    • mwmccullough, on 10/10/2007, -0/+6I just love Snake Whacking Day. Don't you?
      • Rustbelt, on 10/10/2007, -1/+1Hell, yeah. Texas has the rattlesnake round up. It may be the only thing they do that makes up for giving us Bush.
  • Varney, on 10/10/2007, -2/+9It's Reanimator Rattler!
  • SlantyEyes, on 10/10/2007, -2/+57If he had a shovel... why wouldn't he just pick the dead snake up w/ that? I feel like there may be some sort of idiotic detail missing from this story...
    • EBFoxbat, on 10/10/2007, -0/+7Would it occur to you? You cut the ***** thing's head off. That's the point where I stop worrying... not any more I guess.
      • CatalystGhost, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Yeah. When I cut some ***** head off I expect it to be dead just like all the other stuff I cut heads off of. It makes sense, really. This just messes with the brain.
        • Rustbelt, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Apparently rattlesnakes skip death and go right to zombie.
  • Daniel001, on 10/10/2007, -10/+30Pics or it didn't happen.
  • phaseblue, on 10/10/2007, -0/+51That would make a great picture for a motivational poster. "Dedication" or something along those lines.
  • yargthepirate, on 10/10/2007, -3/+92Enough is enough! I have had it with these ***** decapitated snakes on this motherfuc AHHHHH MY LEG

    • crgnetworks, on 10/10/2007, -16/+3RTFA, it was his index finger.
      • alanjcfs, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3It was an obscure movie reference, spoken by actor Samuel Jackson.
        • jj9000, on 10/10/2007, -1/+1His name is Samuel L, douchebag.
        • yargthepirate, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2I think it says Samuel L ***** Jackson on his birth certificate.
      • longbow486, on 10/10/2007, -2/+2i give you the worst grade ever an A - -
        • pault107, on 10/10/2007, -3/+1That's not the worst grade ever. I'd be pretty happy with an A--.
          • drakenlot, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Whoosh: the sound of a reference going over someone's head.


            I'm wondering why people dugg longbow down, I guess no one watches Futurama anymore.
        • Smills, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1I don't know why people are digging you down. That is a well-placed Futurama reference.
    • Vertabreaker, on 10/10/2007, -1/+1Thank you for a good laugh lol. Defiantly needed that. Digg.
  • down4twenty, on 10/10/2007, -12/+0i saw this on TV

            Im on ur internets, biting ur fingerz
  • markp93, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5Ghost Snake -- Even if a samurai's head were to be suddenly cut off, he should be able to do one more action with certainty.
    • lucidapathy, on 10/10/2007, -19/+1Correction. "Even if Chuck Norris' head were to be suddenly cut off, he would still kill everyone"

      /totally can't believe I just did a Norris joke. I'm ashamed.
  • ryancwarren, on 10/10/2007, -6/+2I wish these people would leave little notes saying why they did it...
    • Vikesrock, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4He didn't die, why don't you go ask him?
    • subtle, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1I have the best news for you: The man in the story sent me the little note because he was worried the snake head would swallow it if he just left it lying around. The note said, "I picked up that mean ol' rattler's head so I could look him in the eye while he was dyin' an' let him know that it was me what done it. Imagine my surprise. P.S. ryancwarren is a big girl's blouse."
  • smarba, on 10/10/2007, -2/+14what's with all the snake stories lately?



    (keep them coming)

      BRING ON THE BURIES!
  • gab00n, on 10/10/2007, -3/+10These bastards can still bite after they are dead, that is why you should never try pick up a dead rattle snake. It's pits can still sense heat for about 30 minutes after it's dead and it will reflex strike you're stupid ass.
    • Jagang, on 10/10/2007, -4/+3Wow. Reflex strike "you're" stupid ass... Yes... Exactly... I hope a kangaroo takes a disease-infested dump on YOUR head for that statement.
    • capps, on 10/10/2007, -3/+0you are what?
    • Tankslap, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2LOL...kangaroo? WTF

    • leif77, on 10/10/2007, -1/+0thank god it wasnt a black snake or he would have gotten ***** for chopping its head off.
      • blackinthmiddle, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Lololololol...that was real funny...yeah...look out Chris Rock.
      • drakenlot, on 10/10/2007, -1/+1Don't you mean a Black ***** Snake?








        *tumbleweed goes past, with cricket sounds*
  • napier, on 10/10/2007, -4/+2This happened to my grandfather. Except he was smart and completely decapitated the rattler, so when he picked it up bit it's tail and the snake struck his arm, all he had was snake blood on his arm and some wet underwear...
    • ronh, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Was he really smart? If you were smart you wouldn't pick it up in the first place.
    • nodonoug, on 10/10/2007, -1/+2Yeah, but he picked up the tail....the guy in the article picked up the head. HUGE difference.
    • codered1322, on 10/10/2007, -1/+1So basically it didn't happen to your grandfather...
      Cool story Hansel.
      • Rustbelt, on 10/10/2007, -0/+0If that was Zoolander reference you get a digg. If not, I have wasted my digg.
    • subtle, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Your grandfather must have been one of them rocket surgeons.
    • Babygirl86, on 10/10/2007, -0/+0I would poke it with a stick till it quit twitching
      • subtle, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1You, sir, have humbled the lot of us.
    • Clumber, on 10/10/2007, -1/+0wow, napier, you gave me a hellofa "wait, what?" moment with just one simple omission of the work 'it' or "the snake' or your choice... I initially read your comment as "Except he was smart and completely decapitated the rattler, so when he picked it up [&] bit it's tail and the snake struck his arm, all he had was snake blood on his arm and some wet underwear..."

      WTF was his grandfather doing biting the dead snake's tail??!! And how is it smart to bite the snake's tail....

      Yeah... It's Friday... it's not 5 yet (pacific)... yeah, the brain, the brain thing... it hurts! As you were. Nothing to see here. Carry on.
  • fantasticFlan, on 10/10/2007, -1/+2Even cut off, the head can still bite. (Too obscure? Too general?)
    • Waterrat, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1 Well,yeah,until the brain dies,which won't be long.
      However,if he was really smart,he'd have seen the snake,then turned around and walked away...Most people are bit cause they feel they just have to kill the snake.
  • jtb4, on 10/10/2007, -2/+5Did anybody see that kid's arm who got bitten in the other front page snakebite article? NSFL!!!
    • smokestack, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Not Safe For Lunch... I like it, you sir have coined an acronym..
  • tkstock, on 10/10/2007, -5/+4Why didn't they just reach into the snakes mouth and pull out it's nano processor?

    (obscure reference, anyone?)
  • WoodenKimono, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2This is often called the death bite. You should always try to smash it instead. Using a stick is far better than using a machete.
    • nodonoug, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2I'll stick to the shovel (longer handle than a machete) to sever the head first. That greatly reduces it's striking radius, then I'll take care of it by digging a hole with the shovel and just scooping it in. Never getting my hands within about 4 feet of the head.
    • mike17032, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1And a shotgun trumps both. Hard to get bit by a head thats in 6 pieces.

      They also make snake shot for pistols too, turns them into a mini shotgun.
      • drakenlot, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Trust me, someone out would manage to get bit by a snake's head when it's in 6 pieces.

        Have you forgotten how stupid the general public is?
        • subtle, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2This actually happened to you, didn't it? Don't feel bad.
        • Babygirl86, on 10/10/2007, -0/+0someone would try to pick up the pieces and get stuck on a fang. Or they could be like waaaay redneck and want the fangs as souvenirs for their wife.
          • smokestack, on 10/10/2007, -0/+0you know, I saw a guy on ripley's last week who was bitten by a dead rattlers head for that very reason!
            so surprise he was out with his buddies on ATVs
      • madhaha, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1As far as I know, the .410 caliber shotgun shell was designed for the purpose: you can fire it from a pistol chambered for .45 LC such as a Colt Single Action Army a.k.a. The Peacemaker. I would not be surprised if a few cowboys had a some snake shot for the trail (although farmers seem more likely).
  • phaseblue, on 10/10/2007, -0/+11Snake? Snaaaaaaaaake!!!
  • opposites, on 10/10/2007, -1/+6that's ***** metal
  • feverjunk, on 10/10/2007, -3/+4They should have just left it alone.
    • Waterrat, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1 Agreed...There is no reason to provoke the stupid thing,just leave it the hell alone!
  • bailuff, on 10/10/2007, -3/+1Dugg for bein in my neighborhood. And yes, there are LOTS of people this dumb in my area.

    He deserved to be bitten for picking it up the way he did...
  • cutigerdave, on 10/10/2007, -1/+2No sympathy for stupid.
  • landmonster, on 10/10/2007, -3/+37That happened to me once. Except the head reattached itself to the body and it transformed into a giant lizard beast with big horns and fire for breath but it was ok in the end because I just kicked it in the balls and he fell over and his head on the side of a mountain and died and then he turned into money and I took the money and bought beer.
    • Tankslap, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2I am now visualizing a lizard with balls. A snake with balls would be even funnier.
      • Babygirl86, on 10/10/2007, -0/+0HA HA HA they would be squashed on the ground and dragging around. Could u imagine a snake trying ti slither with a pair of balls.
    • pault107, on 10/10/2007, -0/+5I'll have one of what he's smoking.
    • subtle, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Pics or it didn't happen.
  • MikeDawg, on 10/10/2007, -0/+4I have killed rattle-snakes on my property before (and called my neighbor to come over and cook them). My neighbor would carefully decapitate the snake, and he would bury the head more than 1 ft deep, as he had known, they can still strike, and they can still carry poison well after their dead.
  • musntSurfatWork, on 10/10/2007, -2/+1Ride the snake!! (Jim Carrey)
  • milou, on 10/10/2007, -9/+11Why kill the snake in the first place? We are more danger to the snake than them to us. With the shovel he could have thrown it (alive) out of the coral. We have several snakes (yes, rattlers) in our yard. We take the extra measure to get away and leave them alone. So far me, pet, and family have not been bitten (14 years). Yeah, we are somewhat scared of them. But respect them and be aware is better tool for both parties. For all I care to say "I wish the guy would have died. it would have rid us of an obvious idiot".
    • ronh, on 10/10/2007, -4/+6Most rational statement on this article.
      • mike17032, on 10/10/2007, -1/+2Where do you live? I am betting its somewhere that doesnt have a lot of rattlers.
      • molossus, on 10/10/2007, -1/+2Why, do you live where there are? I live in Phoenix, and am part of a rattlesnake relocation program. I see them almost every single day. In almost every case they pose absolutely no harm to the person calling them in. MOST bites are on the hand and include alcohol. Doesn't sound like the snake's fault to me.
        • Rustbelt, on 10/10/2007, -0/+0For the love of God why aren't we killing more snakes? Has everyone gone crazy?
    • avnerlevit, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1snaks are reptiles... they're not dogs- who won't bite if you pet them.
      I would say.. you call the animal control center.
      • subtle, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Well shoot, now you done gone embarrassed everyone with your book learnin' on snakes and dogs and all that *****.
    • internetcoward, on 10/10/2007, -3/+0Snakes are the devil... duh.
    • nodonoug, on 10/10/2007, -0/+7Works great for rattlers...not all snakes are as happy to stay away as they are. Water moccasins will come up onto your porch and hang out under your door. You'd better hope to God you can see it before you open the door.
    • mrhahn, on 10/10/2007, -1/+2A friend of mine in AZ used to take this attitude, until a rattlesnake bit his dog without being provoked.
      • jocknerd, on 10/10/2007, -1/+1Yes, it probably tracked the dog down. Provoked? Provoked to a rattler is getting too close to it. Striking is its defense. It was provoked because the dog got within striking distance.
    • mike17032, on 10/10/2007, -1/+2It depends on where you live. The truth is that rattlesnakes have no place living where lots of humans do. If you live in the mountains then ya I guess you could take it for a walk and toss it. But if you live in any kind of urban or suburban area, kill it.

      I am never for the killing of animals for no reason, but venomous snakes ARE dangerous. Its just not worth the risk having them around. What if you let it go and it bites a kid down the block?
      • molossus, on 10/10/2007, -2/+1*****. Really? That's really what an adult thinks? Real life isn't like Snakes on a Plane. If you're scared of rattlesnakes, don't move to a hillside in the desert. Bites are very uncommon, and are nearly all caused by some dumb drunk guy trying to pick it up.
      • mushoo, on 10/10/2007, -1/+1"The truth is that rattlesnakes have no place living where lots of humans do."

        It's the other way around bub.
        • Rustbelt, on 10/10/2007, -1/+1Nope. We have thumbs so we win the evolutionary battle. If a rattlesnake can pick up a shotgun and get me, so be it. Otherwise I'm grabbing my scattergun and taking care of business.
    • 0x0D0A, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1I hope you don't have minors in your "family". There seems to be a rash of stupid parents these days... They just can't believe something bad happened to their child because of their obvious stupidity. Whether it's leaving the kids in the hot car, keeping a pitbull as a family pet, or not bothering to do anything about the rattle snake nest in the back yard, parent are getting more and more careless. You probably wont lose a kid to the snakes if they only get bit once, but by the time DHR gets done with you - well, I'm sure we'll see it on Fox News.
      • milou, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Yes, you are right the news syndicates love to masturbate their news on us, non stop, as long as they can. I do have kids. Young as 4yrs old. Upon viewing a snake around, together we observe it. The whole issue with my comment seem to be "if one of us do get bitten, what would be our attitude during and thereafter?". I have no answer. Carelessness is also part of parenting, and being human. Family is not a requirement for a safe life. The article above is more about pure stupidity, ignorance , and disrespect. It appears he was also a parent!
    • tsaxer, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2Well, I'm all for respecting nature and everything, but where I grew up we had woods. As such, most of the danger came in accidentally stepping on or near one hidden in the leaves. So we killed the when we saw them, but that wasn't too often since we also had a few kingsnakes in the area (they eat other snakes). I could see the benefit of a relocation program, but they aren't everywhere. Still, the guy was an idiot for messing with the head.

  • internetcoward, on 10/10/2007, -1/+0That would have made on great $10,000 video. Why can't peopel get more stuff like this on video. From now on, everyone wears a helmet cam... if anything cool happens, show us. No boners, please.
    • subtle, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1I see what you did there: reverse psychology.
  • bloominoctober, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Dammit! Now I"m even more afraid of snakes then I was earlier today. Thanks, Digg.
    • mike17032, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1I bet you live in San Fran or something, chances are safe. Even if you dont, I think more people get killed by coconuts than snakes.

      Dont ***** with them if you see one. Call someone that knows what the hell to do. And remember that in most parts of the US, most snakes are not venomous. I have been bitten by several snakes, if they arnt posionious its no big deal. But if you dont know what it is leave it the ***** alone or find someone who does.

      Some snakes are even fun to play with, like Milk Snakes or Gardner snakes.
      • LoudMusic, on 10/10/2007, -0/+0Well, it's not like nonpoisonous snakes don't hurt when they bite. You're still getting a collection of fangs in your flesh. And no telling what kind of illness that nasty mouth can inject into you.
      • drakenlot, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Oh so true, those coconuts are the devil's advocate!
        • subtle, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Coconuts can kill anyone they want! Coconuts cut off heads ALL the time and don't even think twice about it. These guys are so crazy and awesome that they flip out ALL the time. I heard that there was this coconut who was eating at a diner. And when some dude dropped a spoon the coconut killed the whole town. My friend Mark said that he saw a coconut totally uppercut some kid just because the kid opened a window.



          And that's what I call REAL Ultimate Power!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
      • Babygirl86, on 10/10/2007, -0/+0Snakes are fun to play with I used to have 2 corn snakes one albino one normal and thy were the *****

  • duhblow7, on 10/10/2007, -0/+2I caught, killed, skinned, gutted, boiled, bbq'd and ate a rattler for the first time last Sunday. Taste like turkey, but more gamey. Very boney, like a fish. I'd eat it again.
    • drjekelmrhyde, on 10/10/2007, -1/+2It taste dog
      • subtle, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1But dog no like. Dog get mad, kick snake's ass. Snake leave quietly, never taste dog no more. The end.
    • drakenlot, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1Not chicken? But everything tastes like chicken!
  • AllnightChemist, on 10/10/2007, -1/+1Snake bite trifecta in play.

  • Tankslap, on 10/10/2007, -0/+3How the ***** does a *head* twist around?
    • xocomil, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1It is actually pretty simple. Most pit vipers have fangs that fold up along the top of their mouth. They can twist their jaw and "bite" you by pressing one of their fangs into your fingers. That is why you don't grab a rattlesnake or other pit vipers behind the head. Even with their mouth closed they are extremely dangerous.
  • solidwhitedevil, on 10/10/2007, -0/+0What about option 3?

    Kill it with fire.
  • heavystone, on 10/10/2007, -0/+1LOL, "Revenge from the grave!" So the snake had the last say in the matter i guess. =)
