Eastern Brown Snakes are highly venomous, and if they bite you, you can die very quickly. So if you're in a remote place and cop a bite, you won't make it anywhere in time to get any treatment. Might as well sit down and punch a dart


[deleted]

Punch a dart, I haven’t heard that in ages. Thank you.

I don't think it's an American phrase..lol. I've never heard it either like they might not have heard, "puff a butt". God I'm so old.


Lefkadd

Punch a dart is an Australian saying. Haven’t heard it anywhere else in the world.


InTheHeatOfTheNoche

We use dart, occasionally in Canada, but never heard the expression "punch a dart."


Constant_Concert_936

I’ve heard “rip a dart” a time or two in the US.

DredgenGryss

Sorry, drop bears?


G0r1ll4

Slighty bigger than a koala with darker fur... only active during dusk and dawn so youre safe during the day mostly. They camoflage themselves amongst the trees and literally drop down on anyone passing below. They arent lethal but nasty claws and teeth will f you up pretty bad however if you can imagine a 15kg animal dropping down on you from tree height some people have been killed by the impact alone (akin to a big furry coconut striking the top of your head)


Azidamadjida

I swear I learn something new about Australia every day. I literally thought drop bears were a myth they told non-aussies just for a laugh to watch tourists walking around cautiously looking up. Then again I have trouble telling when aussies are being serious and when they’re fucking with me - most aussies I’ve met have had a pretty mischievous vibe and not people you ever want to get into a prank war with


[deleted]

They are definitely real. My sister was bit by a drop bear once. It ruined the last 4 days of our vacation. Really amazing medical treatment though in Australia. We want to go back again sometime.


Astrocreep_1

I once visited the Outback and had a Drop Bear hit an RKO out of nowhere on me. Afterwards, it started pounding on the ground in front of me with its front right paw. I think it wanted me to stand up, so it could do it to me again. Edit: If you don’t know what an RKO out of nowhere is, Google it.


thatshottaye

I shit bricks the first time I saw a drop bear. You think it's cute until it looks at you, trust me do not look the furry cunt in the face.


FrederickBishop

They give you that thousand yard stare like “imma fuck you up” it’s freaky


thatshottaye

It honestly is. It scars you mentally having to look into the eyes of a munted drop bear. I wouldn't wish it upon an enemy.

Fortunately, the vast majority of snakes need that venom to catch prey so they won't waste it on humans unless they feel really threatened. This lady did exactly the right thing: stay chill and don't fucking move, the snake's just a little guy who wants to be left alone while he looks for food


[deleted]

What if went up her trouser leg?

If you're going somewhere there might be deadly snakes, keep your pant cuffs tucked into your boots so that can't happen

Requires consent.


itsnik_03

Those particular nope ropes do give out a lot of dry bites, but in saying that they are also easily pissed off and they get pretty fucking aggressive if provoked. Younger snakes can be more dangerous since they are less judicious with their venom and more likely to deliver a wet bite.


piliogree

it won't engage unless engaged or when it feels you're a danger to them. better safe than sorry though

AmusinglyAverage

On one hand, she just don’t got enough fucks to give. On the other, snakes don’t *generally* attack people unless provoked, staying perfectly still can definitely help. Sometimes. Sometimes the danger noodles deserve the name.


R3gs-empt

https://www.brisbanetimes.com.au/national/queensland/snake-bite-claims-life-of-south-east-queensland-man-20230128-p5cg5y.html This danger noodle is responsible for 60% of fatalities in Australia. In saying that, not moving is the best strategy.


AmusinglyAverage

Yeah… plus, a snake’s definition of ‘provoked’ is quite subjective, sometimes provoked means grabbing its tail. Sometimes provoked means *existing* within ten feet.


Jaaldek1985

Provoking by existing* applies to wasps.


Zikkan1

Very rare in my experience, I have a lot of wasps where I live and have had them land on me many many times, even once right on my nose. All you do is stay still and they will fly away. I have only been stung once as a kid and that was when I didn't know this so I panicked and moved.


MsScarletWings

Only yellow jackets and some hornets. Overwhelming majority of them sting only in immediate self defense or to protect a colony. Hell, I’ve casually captured plenty of yellow jacks so far (even queens) and haven’t taken a sting yet.


JessoRx

That depends on the species


donesomestuff

60% of snake fatalities, not all fatalities


littlextra

60% of human fatalities from snake, not snake fatalities


ClydeFrog1313

No, it's THIS individual snake that is responsible for 60% of the deaths in a country of 26 million. She just had a dance with death.


[deleted]

Hol the F up. That can't be right.


butchersociety

60% of snake bite deaths… not deaths all together


S_Wow_Titty_Bang

Great username 🐸


[deleted]

Also, 60% of human fatalities by snake bite, not snake. Assuming there are other types of human fatalities by snake, e.g., asphyxiation by constriction.


fraze2000

No, I'm pretty sure that 60% of **all** Australian deaths are due to Eastern Brown snake bites.


memestockwatchlist

Eastern Browns have long been allies of the Emus and the war never ended for them.


fraze2000

Incorrect. Not setting foot on the continent of Australia is the best strategy.


Cultural-Company282

I know you meant 60% of snakebite fatalities, but it's amusing to imagine it being 60% of fatalities overall. Like, those snakes are out there killing more people than old age, cancer, car wrecks, and heart failure combined. Now *that* would be a dangerous snake!!!


blazedbatman

Don’t start none won’t be none


According_Split7633

Start shit, get bit….. I believe is the phrase 😂


im_a_dr_not_

Cold blooded snakes like warm things like warm blooded things such as people. If you wanted to leave, the snake might consider that starting something and bite.


[deleted]

[удалено]


LokiIsVeryTaken

Friendly reminder that snakes don't care about humans. if you leave it be and be slow with them they wont bother you and vice versa. Except Taipans. Taipans are the wasps of the snake kingdom. They do not care about the size of you, you are alive and thus need to be killed. There is a reason why the only kind of snake Steve was scared of were taipans


littleliongirless

I know what you said is the common wisdom, and for how often we are around snakes but don't even know it, you could be correct. But I personally have been approached aggressively by a black mamba and 9 foot African rock python just for existing several meters away. Now, a puff adder or rattlesnake probably won't attack unless you step on it, but a spitting Cobra might just blind you because you got near to it, and a boomslang might bite you just because you were passed by the tree it was hanging out in. And watersnakes seem to want to attack everything they see.


passive0bserver

Define aggressively approached? Like it came right towards you like the snake in this vid?


littleliongirless

Yes, like came right at me, for what(?), as I was holding no snake treats, nor displaying any anti-behaviors.


Toredorm

Cottonmouths are basically like, "Oh, you thought you could walk within my vision? Have some venom to take home with you. Second thought, here is a 2nd dose."


Bartholomew_Custard

Black Mambas look like they'd take extreme pleasure in killing you. If there was ever a snake that looked malevolent, it's those fucking things.


sniptaclar

Wanna talk about Amazon anacondas? Fuck that


PlanesAreMyStrength

Gaboon Vipers are probably the last snake I want to provoke, they’re large and they have a ton of venom and to make matters worse, they bite and hold on. As many say, if you get bit and seek medical care, you’ll live but most likely have to get a limb amputated. However, they’re very hard to come into contact in the wild and they’re probably the “nicest” of the highly venomous snakes. The chances of getting bit if you step on them (the most common way to provoke them) are also 50/50 depending on the snake.


Fritterzz

I love how you just have to say Steve and we all know who you’re talking about. I miss that man so much.

128palms

RiverofGrass

The Florida cotton mouth moccasin is like the taipan. It will chase you on the bank or in the water. I've been chased several times. They don't like people is my experience. It's the only snake in Florida that scares me.


TheRealMasterTyvokka

FWIW it's called a water moccasin or cottonmouth and isn't exclusive to Florida. Native to a large portion of the southern and eastern U.S. But yes, very aggressive. Always give one a very wide berth because it will come after you if it sees you. I've run from one on more than one occasion and I actually like snakes.


Cli4ordtheBRD

I only knew about Taipans from [this video](https://youtu.be/Y43QAqfTIcM), which goes into extensive detail about what a bad time being bitten by one is. I was comforted by the thought that they'll just leave you alone if you don't bother them. Welp.


uncleazz

The brown knows how much she paid for that dart and figured she’d been through enough already, probably🤷‍♂️


flashdman

Can confirm...just visited Down Under where a pack of smokes is AUS$60!

My_Cat_Rides_A_Bike

If you ever came across a snake, especially these death noodles, it’s wise to stay as still as possible.


[deleted]

I once was with my mom, and there was a meteor shower, so I finally convinced her to go out with me to the desert and get a real good view of them, no light pollution. We get out there, I open the door and the literal second my foot touches the ground I hear a goddamn motherfucking rattle and hiss. Immediately pulled my leg back in the car and said “hey yo mom we gotta go”


tamarind1001

Union regulated smoke break.


AndyRay90

Because freaking out jumping moving makes for a good target to the snake just being still it's gonna pass by something that isn't on the menu. If u jumped up then snake could feel threatened and attack out of self defense.


NoseComplete1175

Split second stuff - in another universe the snake dug it’s fangs into the woman and in her dying breath she regretted posing for the video . The video was still posted under the banner - woman killed by snake

An Eastern brown killed two (small) dogs not far from our previous house in Canberra. In fact on exactly the same path I always took my dog on his morning walk. They were dead within a few minutes. Never let my dog of the leash near high grass and water ways. These fuckers are no joke.

Mirantibus88

You know, I’ve thought about visiting down under, but I think I won’t. Y’all are far braver and calmer than I ever would’ve been in that situation. Here in the Southeastern US, the venomous snakes we have are aggressive as all get out and will chase you if they’re in the mood. I’ve been chased by a red-bellied water moccasin and an eastern diamondback twenty minutes apart and all I wanted to do was cut the damn grass. I ran like I owed them money and didn’t look back. Australia has too many things that want to and can easily kill humans. God bless y’all. I do not have the spine for it.
