Wow, a flawless day. Ok, it had flaws but I can pretend.

OMG I totally just watched a show where this guy (I think a park ranger) got bitten by a Black Mamba and he was like "z0mg.. I need to get to a hospital...." so he WALKS the 20 minutes back to his car all zonked as shit (knowing that running will make things worse), and then he starts driving his ranger jeep half unconscious and already losing his vision until he sees another car, and then he nearly runs the other car off the road and goes over to the guy and is like, "I need to get to a hospital- I need to get to a hospital I've been bitten by a snake.." while the other guy is like too busy yelling at him about how he almost ran them off the road to actually listen. But FINALLY the other guy gets the message and tosses the ranger into the back of his minivan and speeds over to the hospital. By the time they get there it's already been like an hour and a half since he was bitten, and all the doctors are like, "Are you SURE you got bitten by a black mamba, because you should be dead by now.." and he kept trying to tell them it was ( ... )

You only used it 4 times, thats like, ok. Also, I think the anti-venom may have killed him if he was not exposed to the snake. A rule of thumb is someone is intoxicated, confused, or you have a suspicion they are not themselves, you do not trust their judgement, so if he's loopy even remotely.........You don't give the anti-venom, especially if it can kill them.

But what if it's the middle of AFRICA and you can obviously SEE the guy has a snake bite wound?!! And he's wearing a park ranger uniform w/credentials!!?!!!? I was just really disturbed.

And it was on the Science channel. Hehe, a whole hour-long show of what happens to people who get bitten by the Nine Most Venomous Snakes In The World.

Planes are bad enough, adding snakes would be worse then terrorists.

For the record, that contraption is called a pith helmet. :P

a what helmet? and how do you know? Also, wth, no one knows what a pith helmet is, and I dare you to make some journalist ask 50 people if they know what a pith helmet is.

Isn't a pith helmet what you use when you "really gotta go"????

beats me. As a good and proper field going wildland fire fighter/range land technician the one time "I really had to go" I drove 10 miles into town.
