BBC news clip of the death of luke yeomans.

[flyinggeckoprods]

It is sad this happened.my question is was he wearing his venom defender gloves when this happened and did the gloves fail or was he bit somewhere else on his person

[leibstandarte1000]

GOSH WHODA THUNK HE WOULD DIE FROM A SNAKE BITE? SORTA STUPID?

[littlemissxxx3]

It is sorry, and I am extremely sorry for your loss. I never personally knew him, but I don't think he would have wanted it any other way :)

[christophermchale]

@littlemissxxx3 thanks.

R I P...We will talk reptiles one day in heaven

[XdEbaZ068]

amazing!:O

[iandrewRAWR]

r.i.p

you died doing what you love most.

[ComicalHolocaust]

I'm sure he knew what he was doing, any one who thinks he was "cruel to snakes" by watching his videos has the intelligence of a 3 year old. Just goes to show, you're only one breath away from the other side. better read the Basic Instruction Before Leaving Earth...

[PsychoBillyNiki]

He was such a nice guy

[Bestman3007]

Snakemans desaster,

at last

the king was faster...

[Cyanemo]

So the british consider snake agitators stars?

Seriously?

[Thaicobrakeeper]

A star has been extinguished, but another star is born in heaven.

R.I.P Luke Yeomans.

[egsotix4lyfe]

[egsotix4lyfe]

r.i.p luke

[TheTramp2]

What a shame. Lets hope these intelligent snakes can also find some peace now that they've made their feelings so clear.

[Tenderness6]

RIP Luke! Hope you will find Peace soon!

[frankie5fingers]

what's wrong with people who don't understand that it's a deadly snake and sooner or later you will get bitten from it and die.

[mrdylanmagic]

@frankie5fingers uhhh no

[PunchRayintheface]

@frankie5fingers

Bill Hasst didnt die from a snake bite and he was bitten 174 times and lived to be 100. He just passed away recently from old age. Do you honestly think that these experienced people dont know that snake can kill them, so whats your point?

[B3NNY24]

rip luke you will be miss world wide sleep well brother

[79ghostdog]

RIP Luke, a big loss to the herp community.

terrible news........

[SaveTheSnakes]

RIP Luke. He wil be missed!

[dweyn34]

Luke Yeomans died from a bite from one of his cobras that he kept. When an experienced handler is killed by one of these snakes it highlights that they are lethal animals. Snakes do not have any sentiment of attachment to any human so it had no regard for Luke Yeoman's life. I am sure his family wish he never had any interest in king cobras as one ended his life tragically because he got too careless being with them & its a lesson to all handlers of these snakes that they are dangerous!

[sandletters39]

@dweyn34 Just like Steve Irwin, these people were taking a lot of risk with these dangerous obsessions and its known as death by Asperger's Syndrome.

[christophermchale]

@sandletters39 i dont think it is though.

[sandletters39]

@christophermchale It would be as correctly stated but not always. People have different interests and some take a lot of risk to get a better picture of a train. In 1976, one eccentric guy fell 60 ft to his death while falling asleep on a railway bridge

[christophermchale]

@sandletters39 i honestly dont know what that has to do with one of my friends dying.

[sandletters39]

@christophermchale well, what was his hobbies and interests? Was it something different?

[bmanandrybow]

i met him four days ago r.i.p

[jess59cab]

R.I.P Luke the snakes will be worse off now your gone just like Steve a tragic accident.

[joachimekstrom]

R.I.P Luke, now you are in heaven where you can take care of the snakes without getting fatal bites!

[LukeEdwardsUK]

R.I.P Luke..

[onegek]

R.I.P Luke

A TRUE U.K. Pioneer in the herp world

[PlayThething]

So sad Luke will be sadly missed. I hope that his work and passion for these amazing animals continues and is not tarnished by his death. Luke's King Cobra Sanctuary is just down the road from me

[Ribbitmefoot]

Very sad. RIP Luke
