Rescue 911 - Episode 223 - "Cobra Chaos" (Part 1 of 2)

A man is bitten by his pet cobra and no hospital in the area has the antivenin. This segment was taken from Episode 223, a 90-minute episode, which aired on March 26, 1991 on CBS. This particular version of the segment was taken from a 30-minute syndicated episode, so small parts of it may have been cut out to make room for commercials.

This was taken from an off-network syndicated episode, so it was probably trimmed for running time. When this segment originally aired on CBS, it was part of an extended 90-minute episode.

snakes ARE NOT meant to be domesticated, I don't care what anyone says, whey else would it strike the cage until it's nose bled?

This person was crazy for trying to contain a pet cobra...seriously...like Corn Snakes and Garter Snakes and such are fine but COBRAS? He was asking to get bitten.

@srubi74 According to doctors, semi-poisonous means one w/ weaker venom than another.

But weaker venom makes no difference in a person who's allergic to snakes, b/c they'll have an allergic reaction that has nothing to do w/ weak or strong venom.

An allergic reaction results from the immune system's making a marker that reacts against allergen.

@NathanGrammatico In my opinion, no. A snake is either poisonous or it's not.

[vickiormindyb]

That's like people who think they can make a cougar cub into their pet.

Some animals are not pets, no matter HOW cute they are as cubs.
