  • sailadayaway, on 08/29/2008, -0/+6I don't know about 51, or Japan, but you can get a license to keep poisonous snakes in the states, but usually you're required to have the anti-venom for every snake you own. And it's stupid to keep them without being trained in bite first aid..
  • guhpol, on 08/28/2008, -4/+10What a crazy man... He isnot appreciating his own life at all!
  • Lunarbunny, on 08/29/2008, -0/+5Snakes? I hate snakes.
  • inactive, on 08/29/2008, -1/+6It should be "venomous", not "poisonous". Way to fail, CNN.

  • yerlamow, on 08/29/2008, -3/+6Can't imagine how a person could live in an apartment full of snakes.
  • bunnyandzombie, on 08/29/2008, -2/+5I know I'm asian but if you come back to my apartment I'll show you my big snake...

  • CoreyTamas, on 08/29/2008, -2/+5Seems like the kind of crime that provides its own punishment if you ask me.
  • iceman35, on 08/29/2008, -0/+351?, that would last him like at least a month, ive had snake soup before, aint that bad.

  • inactive, on 09/01/2008, -0/+3Brave is not the word I'd use, I'd think testosterone poisoning would be more accurate.
    With a dose of stupidity thrown in for good measure.
  • Kzoo, on 08/29/2008, -0/+2VENOMOUS!
  • freedomwv, on 09/07/2008, -0/+2I don`t see how he did it. An apartment in Japan is usually very small.
  • Helena93, on 09/05/2008, -0/+2that was insane!!!!!! 51!
    What if they all got out of his apartment and went all over the place into other peoples!
    Just imagine waking up to a snake in your home....*imagining*..... freaky
  • mv1008, on 08/29/2008, -4/+6Only in Japan.
  • racketgirl101, on 09/04/2008, -0/+251 snakes in one apartment???
  • Reynardine, on 08/29/2008, -1/+3I can understand the thrill (and possible power trip) of keeping a dangerously venomous pet.

    I could call it sane in a region where antivenom is plentiful.

    But when snakebites can kill in 2 hours and the antidote is 3 hours away? Perceived immortality doesn't *begin* to cover it.
  • poet, on 08/29/2008, -3/+5It's posssssible if you live in a sssshady apartment complex.

  • shadowsurfr1, on 01/10/2009, -0/+2Too late. They were already consumed by the snakes. :D
  • freedomwv, on 09/07/2008, -0/+2Most Japanese people have know here in Tokyo hate ***** snakes so I doubt you are actually allowed to have that many.
