Good year for snakes in Ontario last year tilly, they were everywhere, even found a couple in the garden. I really wanted to see a mississauga rattlesnake but they are rare I was told.

I once watched an actual video of a bloke who caught anaconda's for zoos and that, In the video he dived into a river and waited to be attacked by an anaconda. Once it had coiled around him, he scrambled to the bank and it was removed by his helpers. i think his wife was one of them, I have looked for it online but have not been able to find it.  

Must have had a right good relationship with his wife.

Mississauga rattlesnake is on my list of snakes to see.A friend of mine in California was in his greenhouses working away in flip-flops when he heard a rattler and there was one a few feet away,he said he leapt about ten feet in the air and screamed.

Never been scared of snakes but throw a spider at me and all hell is gonna break loose :laugh: 

I once threw a spider at my mate (who was driving at the time) on our way to Creamfields lol he crashed into some birds and all he could say was “he threw a spider at me” lmao. That Yugo was made of iron mind :laugh:

Feck that. A bloke over the park when I was about 12 put a largish Anaconda around my neck and the cnut started to tighten as I breathed in. I couldn't get my fingers underneath it because it was so tight, but I could get hold of it's neck right near it's head. Everyone was laughing when I started to panic a bit and then I threated to bite its head. They soon got it off. Feckin thing was too strong for me and it wasn't more than 10 foot.
