His enthusiasm is infectious. You can see the marvel in his eyes about the simplest of creatures. You could tell he was absolutely glowing inside when he was playing with that Chameleon
This guy...... has balls man. I can't possibly even imagine being within 50 feet of a viper, and this irwin guy is picking them up with his bare hands. not just one, like many. Balls.
i wonder if his wife ever took offense to him calling all the animals he encountered beauty or sweet heart....what did he say to her to get em married?
You look as alluring as a pregnant pit viper i pulled out some blokes garage last month
Inland taipan is typically shy compared with several other species.Deadliness consists of various factors,including temperament,fangs effectiveness,venom dose and toxicity,strike position etc and the black mamba king cobra eastern brown coastal taipan several Najas(like cape cobra Egyptian cobra Philippines cobra) are considered as highly deadly.
@EMX7productionz Who's Dumb the person sticking up for Steve or the idiot talking about death on Steve Irwin clip not specifying who the comment is made at Moron
@benjidorn You realize it says @irishxxx5150 not @Steve Iriwn...can you be any more stupid? Just sit down fag before you sound more stupid then what you already are,if thats possible!
I'm no snake expert but I know my South African rather well. That green snake does not look like a boomslang. Not like Steve the legend to make mistakes. He did say that it had cytotoxic venom and I know for a fact that Boomslangs have hemotoxic venom.
Can anyone else identify the snake to back me up or prove me wrong?
The prominate diamond pattern running along the side of the snake as well as the large eyes and pointed angled snout indicate it is indeed a boomslang. Maybe you have seen a different colour variation than the one in the video. Females are olive brown. Male boomslangs can be anywhere from bright green, brownish black to bluish green in colour.
You are right the boomslang has haemotoxic venom not cytotoxic. I thought Steve would have known the difference between the two.
i still cant believe he wrestled crocs handled wild poisionness snakes with no antivenom and finnaly got done in by a freakin fish man i mish him rip steve
when 99% of people are in a tree with a boomslang, they jump out the tree as fast as they can....But when Steeve sees one, he goes running and climbing right for it! ha!
This may be a little late, but in regards to what suba1234 posted on the correctness of Irwin's comment that the boomslang is cytotoxic:
Technically, boomslangs are cytotoxic. "Cytotoxic" is a term meaning "damaging to cells," and applies to several different types of toxin. Haemotoxins are toxins that damage blood cells, and are part of the Cytotoxin family. Therefore, you are correct that boomslangs are haemotoxic, but Irwin is also correct in saying that it is cytotoxic.
suba1234...Give it up. The only people that might believe what you say over what Irwin said are people who didnt like Irwin. You will never convince Irwin fans like myself because they will believe someone who means something to them over someone who means nothing. And its not disrespecting you its just reality. So stop wasting your time. Or get your own show and try to convince Animal Planet its worth watching.
The internet is full of know it alls like suba1234. Who are you going to believe? some smuck on the internet or a world renowned animal expert. Most of us would have died long ago if we had Steve's job. How he survived for so long is hard to understand. Rest in peace Steve Irwin you good man.
In 1957, well known herpetologist, Karl Schmidt died after being bitten by a boomslang. D.S. Chapman states that between 1919 and 1962 there were eight serious human envenomations by boomslangs, two of which were fatal. Boomslangs are shy, non-aggressive snakes which don't bite unless handled. Same applies for South African Vine Snakes.
Whoever was moronic enough to give me a minus for my remark should check out any link on the Boomslang and Vine Snake. Both are HAEMO not CYTO toxic. God forbid someone should correct wrong information when its spoken by Steve Irwin. His fans seem like a fanatical sect to me. I lived in South Africa, and some of this information is just wrong. Like that nonsense about back-fanged snakes needing to hook on to you to inject venom, or that they claim a lot of lives. Cf. expert, accurate literature.
The boomslang is haemotoxic, not cytotoxic. Boomslang bites are in fact comparitively rare, as any medical literature on this topic from South Africa, for example will tell you. Almost all fatalities (less than 10) in the 60's-80's were snake catchers who underestimated it. Also although highly venomous, injects a small amount of venom through its 2mm fangs. Fatalities take about a week, although it takes a microscopic amount to kill.
