This is interesting to watch. My snake has only bit one person and it was this stupid chick I'm no longer friends with😂 I should have taken that bite as an omen, clearly my girl has my back and doesn't want me with people who will waste my time lol gotta love an animals' intuition.
It literally caused like no damage and it's a pretty big snake. But people say "MY COUSINS BALL PYTHON TRIED TO EAT GIM AND HE BUT HIM AND THERE WAS THE BLOODS EVERYWHERE😱!!!"
depends, in 35 years I have handled boas, I have not been able to remove the reflex to pull my arm back. I can't, that's what anyone does and that's where it hurts the most. If this boy had pulled back quickly, the damage would have been significantly worse.
Dude this is just a warning bite, maybe the ball python attack was a food response , the teeth could go deeper into the flesh and of course, if it gets twisted in the arm it causes more pain
It 100% depends on where you get bit. Their teeth are big enough to puncture a large vein on several parts of your body. Also as someone else mentioned, pulling your hand away could cause a serious laceration requiring stitches.
You madman XD awesome video though. You're braver than I am, no way in a million years would I let a boa bite me. Royal pythons are about as big as I can deal with.
Beautiful Boa despite its attitude. I'll forever be partial to the naturally occuring forms and their instincts. You're brave af, I'll take colubrid bites all day but my boa & pythons, Nope. When I have got bit it was a food response bite, full wrap, cool scar but not fun at all. Way to take 1 for the team man.
Actually, I think a food strike would be considerably worse, because they latch on much harder and pull on your flesh. A defensive strike like these are much quicker and less damaging.
Amazing Animal Adventures Exactly, you know your snakes. Defensive bites are somewhat entertaining, cat scratches are far worse. But a feeding response bite from a big constrictor, nah I'll pass lol. I'll just watch Brian from BHB take those kind of bites.
Thanks for doing this. I wouldn't want to have one clamp on in a food response, but this didn't look all that horrible. The snake did give plenty of warning and really only bit when it felt it had no other option. If that boa had been properly raised, housed, and handled regularly, you probably couldn't have made this video.
Doing it for the love of the snakes. You guys both rock. I feel like almost every pet we commonly keep has got a more dangerous defense (cats, rabbits, dogs, parrots) than nomvenemous snakes, our minds just go on high alert messing with a snake.
yes, if it's a warning bite like this in the video (usually the teeth, snakes, don't pull them out completely when it comes to quick bites) but trust that a bite from a large constrictor who mistakes you for food is quite a lot dangerous and painful. In addition to snakes I also work with dogs in particular breeds that are difficult to handle and some time ago my aunt's Argentine dogo attacked me, causing a serious injury to my arm, but compared to the pain that the bite of my reticulated python caused me it was nothing special .. So in my opinion it is wrong to pass the message "the bite of any non-venomous snake is less than that of any other pet" depends on how they bite you and what snake you are dealing with.
@@JK-vy8vh no dude I have experience with snakes and I know how it works, bites are different sometimes can be a soft bite but sometimes can be a dangerous bite
@@elverycanario3604 naw you just want them to be bud there’s tons of proof/vids you just wanna seem cool at the expense of the animal. I have a female Colombian boa imperator with a nasty feeding response and she got me when I was tong feeding (small tongs and bad aim) and it wasn’t bad at all. I can’t believe I was scared of that before and it’s because of sad ppl like you who want to overcompensate by exaggerating how dangerous boas really are. They have a bad rep bc of ppl like you, it’s sad….
I DK how this is going to look. But honestly I love your vibe. Like everything about your character is like super cool. The way you didn’t even say ow when the snake bit you was just like whoa. I love your guises channel but mostly yours just because you have a cool vibe. I’m getting a whole bunch of reptiles in the next couple years and I inspired to be like. You seem like a super cool dude and having you as a friend would be dope. But keep it up my guy, bless up
i just bought a 2018 female motely red tail boa! she's only 24inches right now but one day she'll be a big girl. awesome shot of you taking those bites btw
It’s a testament to the peacefulness of these creatures that even an incredibly wild and fearful boa like this one still did everything it could to not bite, hissing, puffing up, bluffing etc. I’m in the process of taming down a 2.5 foot long rescue from incredibly bad conditions. She was abandoned to die in a rent house! She strikes occasionally but has never bitten. She was either outright ignored or even taunted. I’ve only had her for two days so far but I’ll be handling her every day to every other day (except for 24 hours after feeding) for 15 minutes a day until she gets accustomed to it. Patience, persistence and perhaps a few ouchies and I think she’ll be a fine specimen! There are no scary snakes, only scared snakes.
I got bit by my boa that's around the same size a few weeks ago because I was being careless during feed time. She hit a vein by my thumb and it was squirting blood all over the place. My bedroom looked like a murder scene.
Damn that was scary and I wasn't even near the snake. :'D But obviously the boa was even more scared, poor girl. But awesome video, you took the bites like a champ. :)
I recently got 2 boas. Boa #1. A baby, baby a person decided to buy and immediately sell. I can tell you the exact reason. Though a small snake now, she’s super aggressive and scares people which is funny af cause, she’s the smallest snake I own. Even my baby ball pythons are slightly bigger than she is. Boa #2 junglow, sweet boy, best snake I’ve ever had and I’ve had him for 2 days. Definitely gonna be longer than my short ass.
It was.... a little bit more than 3. If you look on Alex's channel, Rosie (the boa) was kept in the classroom for around 20 years and got minimal human contact. Alex has two followup videos on his channel, GoHerping, you should check them out.
How bad is it? Just got a 3ft red tail yesterday and I’m so nervous lol. Never been bit by a snake before. I have a decent pain tolerance, tons of tattoos, piercings, including tats on my face.
thats defensive. I got bit yesterday and coiled and it fractured the head of my radius and the pain is excruciating. insane really, so so so much worse than i wouldve immagined, but this was an over 5 foot Dumerils Boa
How do you treat the wound? And what do you do if it doesn't let go? I adopted a boa constrictor recently, but he is still small. One day though, he will be big like this one, so I just want to be prepared to how to handle such a situation.
Just treat it like any other wound. Disinfect it, bandage it up, and let it heal. If it doesn't let go, Snake discovery made a good video on how to make them let go. Common techniques are to put the snake's head under cold running water, another is to use a credit card (or something similar) to get the snake off kinda by force (But this has the risk of breaking the snake's teeth or hurting its mouth) and the one that worked for Emily (the person from Snake discovery) is putting vodka in a spray bottle and spritzing its mouth with it. they don't like the taste so they let go. People have also said that using mouthwash in the place of vodka works well too. Sorry if this is big and hard to read.
I know that snakes are generally not dangerous, but this is why male humans live shorter lives... **let's intentionally provoke an untamed/wild animal because: footage** But kinda good this is out there. Snakes aren't dangerous, just scared.
I get your point, but it's really not just males, it's more of by a person to person basis. and Fernando Fernandez, there are plenty of financially successful women who have got where they are by themselves, so I'm not really sure what you're talking about.
This is super late, but when in doubt, ask your vet. A RUclips comment section isn't really the best place to ask for advice. You could also google reptile forums and ask there.
If it ain't been touched or handled, THAT'S probably exactly why it's defensive. It's in its basic natural state with zero conditioning, and whenever it saw a person, it was some skiddish douche dancing in front of its face like a big warm predator. I've had a few snakes over the course of 5 or 6 years (2 ball pythons and a Suriname red tail), and I haven't been bitten, struck at or even hissed at ONCE. I'm not bragging, but I'm just preaching common sense. Don't stand in a threatening posture in front of the snake, watch where you move your hands, keep the head away, and take it slow. 3 snakes isn't veteran experience but being 3-for-3 on tameness says something at least. Be a tree; that's it. That adult boa will become puppy-dog-tame in relatively little time with patient, proper handling.
TY for this. I had a Beautiful Colombian Red Tail that a friend left me with to care for back in early 90s named "Rosy". She was fairly loving unless eat time or blue eyed. Yeah. it's scary, but kinna like being electrocuted by low amps. it's Only 120 volts RIGHT? NOT! Bacteria from ANY Creature might get ya. Just like 20 volts but at 200 amps. (OVER!). SEE? 1 person snorts a perfectly balanced tiny bump of Cocaine and Dies; while next does a gram in 1 snort and fucks 5 chicks in 2 hours. (go figure), and another thinks its ok to let a non poisoness snake bite, and shouldn't be worried about the possible consequences. You Might Die! Just Saying! As sane goes: "Don't touch Bottom unless you really mean it." And Purposly enticing snake to bite whether for science or RUclips hits* is my opinion not cool. it's cool I saw someone else get bit as I did by My snake? No one really wanted to see that. Maybe some wanted to see it feed? cause that's pretty cool actually. Usually when I was mistakenly struck. Rosy went many places with me. Partys, Stores. Oh man, when the woman behind me saw rosy meet who was behind us in line at Circle K? YEE HaW! WOW was that fun. And when I got pulled over for no seat belt by Cops and he said QUOTE: "I don't have time for this, take your snake off and put your seat belt on." Was Soo funny. Or when we took her too Lake for Kegger Volleyball. Was Summer and Packed. He had a fairly large site lake shore. Rosy was just crusing in the grass and was slow and seemed to take time checking it all out. For like 30 minuets and we were about 20 feet from shore. Then she slowly made her way down too the Shore. Was long slope and very shallow for like 100 feet out. But not yet. I picked her up and reset up where we were all sitting. It was OVER! Rosy new she wanted that water. And as she was making her way down too the shore? A Jogger was getting close and It was a Path for disaster. As Jogger approached, he didn't seem to be looking where he was stepping. More looking at all the hot Babes in our party. And when he was about 10 feet from encountering a 6' Boa? We Said to him" HEY' Watch OUT! There's A Snake right There", and He Looked at us and almost started to smile* HA HA! Then he looked* and SAW! BOOM! DUDE Jumped like a escaped tire bouncing off freeway rails. Was probably the best reaction I ever saw from others reacting to Rosy. She Eventually made it too the Lake shore again. By Then; Many people had become spectators of Rosy and her first "Outdoor Romp' as far as on ground and near water. (LOL). But needless to say, Everyone there was for it. Let her into the water. I fought and thought and fought and thought, and 30 people in water to make barrier and keep her contained. Plus ME? Jeesh, I surly wanted Rosy to enjoy a "REAL SWIM" . Like a Dog in a Chuckar pen. Pure Heaven? Anyways. Was Pretty Cool. Made many "new Friends"* that day with her and threw out the day' Hundreds saw and met her and learned her non aggressiveness. (30 in water and 300 onshore by then! HA HA) Sounds Perfect! But the vet assumes she contracted a rare mite, while not visible' burrowed into her and she was dead before even had a chance. Probably from the water he said. Especially of a lot of birds. She passed at 6' 8 and I never knew her age. I cared for her for about 6 years and only grew a few in just those. Never weighed her either. She was Heavy. She was happy neck warmer. Never bit anyone other then me, and only by mistake. To be Honest? More people were freaked out watching me bang a rat in the head with a big wooden spoon. LMAO! Shake the Bag BABY! Shake IT GOOD! Oh my Gosh. Too Much. But sorry. I did it. Obviously chickens didnt need to be disoriented for feeding, and the baby rabbits were more run then defensive the rats are more so defensive sometime. Will know when buy them. The bigger they were, the more awnry it seemed? I don't know why. was long ago and i'm sure is a different protocol for this stuff now. BUT? Thats what I was told to do. I'm not telling NO ONE to do ANY THING ! I'm sharing my Experience Caring for a large snake for many years. At Least' my stupid Dog comesback after calling for an Hour! YEE HaW! Much Love ya all! Take care and make good decisions. 1 little bite can come back. Jaws .. ..... ...... >
I can hardly read what you wrote but I get your point. People can be weird when faced with fear. It's sad to hear of her death, though, and I'm glad she lived a happy life with you.
Ohh my female bci was so upset that i needed to bath her, so she just bite my arm witout any hiss or anything else. And she does this every time when she gets upset or angry or anything. Just silent bites and immediately releases :^(
a very upsetti spaghetti
Indeed.
This is interesting to watch. My snake has only bit one person and it was this stupid chick I'm no longer friends with😂 I should have taken that bite as an omen, clearly my girl has my back and doesn't want me with people who will waste my time lol gotta love an animals' intuition.

PUT YOUR SNAKE IN YOUR GIRL CAVE AT NIGHT
bro my gf's dog didnt like her friend and same exact story, animals know shit bruh
CAN U LET HER BITE ME ?
@@leelunk8235 Snakes do not appreciate that
Like getting scratched by a cat, but cooler. :)
It honestly hurts way less than you'd think lol

I’m so stupid. I was like “hey, that snake looks familiar!” And then I realized “Oh, it’s Rosie.”
Alex just smiling in the background as his friend gets mauled is a mood
You madman XD awesome video though. You're braver than I am, no way in a million years would I let a boa bite me. Royal pythons are about as big as I can deal with.
Madness? This is sparta.
Ohhhh omg that second bite when the teeth came out of your skin. Omg. 😫
But loved the video.
Great work as always!
Thanks so much!
Impressive video, you calmness despite the aggression from the snake is admirable
it sounds like a cougar when in slow-mo lmao
The hiss scares me more than the actual bite

Thanks dude, glad you liked it!
Amazing Animal Adventures Yep, thanks for bleeding for the camera. Keep us updated on her progress.
Ouch...that couldn't have felt good! The worst snake bite I ever took was from a Northern water snake that thought it could eat my hand haha
It's hissing sounds like a toilet flushing.
balls of steel i wouldn't have been able to get over the anxiety.
It wasn't too bad.
Thanks for doing this. I wouldn't want to have one clamp on in a food response, but this didn't look all that horrible.

Find some vids on RUclips it’s not bad, spooky but nothing anywhere near as bad as ur mind would have u think.
What the heck you're so cool 😭 thank you for sharing!
Alex just standing in the back like "lol u do u"
But STILL great to note: the snake was still SO hesitant to bite!
Best snake bite video I have ever seen !! Really nice job you did here, congrats!!
mhebert350 Glad you liked it!
How can i not ! Haaha I mean it is very well filmed super nice angles and you explain it a good way for ppl who are not in the hobby. 👍
I'm surprised how little blood there was, i was bit by my jungle python with a head half the size, and he made me bleed like a stuck pig.
I was surprised as well.
Where did it bite you? That's the important part

What a NICE snake
Quite.
not as bad as I thought it would be
Feed bites aren’t either. Poor things are so demonized sadly, even by some that own them.
FUCK YEAH! Thats for being a man and showing everyone that snake bites really arent shit. People make them out to be more than they really are
Very good for educational resources. It doesn't seem like the bite itself is actually that bad, more of a mental thing than anything else.
Love how with each time she bit, she retreated a bit
Such a beautiful snake
I got bit by my boa that's around the same size a few weeks ago because I was being careless during feed time. She hit a vein by my thumb and it was squirting blood all over the place. My bedroom looked like a murder scene.
wow fuck that was intense
Indeed.
Some reason getting bit by a snake absolutely creeps me out but yet I'll put a suit on and let a malinois hit me full force lol
You're quite the masochist 😂
Damn that was scary and I wasn't even near the snake. :'D But obviously the boa was even more scared, poor girl. But awesome video, you took the bites like a champ. :)
1:20 oh my goodness
Next video you should bite the snake
Ok.
But salmonella though
I recently got a ball python and I have a red light and a heating pad on 247 for the basking spot
My male boa constrictor imperator is very friendly
Watching this was like watching two school boys doing their own jackass clip.
BEAUTIFUL SNAKE 💯
Just curious, how bad did it hurt?
It felt like a few dozen doctor's needles happening all at the same time.
Amazing Animal Adventures oof yikes! Glad the girl is doing better now!
I recently got 2 boas. Boa #1. A baby, baby a person decided to buy and immediately sell. I can tell you the exact reason. Though a small snake now, she’s super aggressive and scares people which is funny af cause, she’s the smallest snake I own. Even my baby ball pythons are slightly bigger than she is. Boa #2 junglow, sweet boy, best snake I’ve ever had and I’ve had him for 2 days. Definitely gonna be longer than my short ass.
Dear god. How did you get up with those massive iron balls
Wow that's crazy
Love your video
How sharp are the boa's teeth?
Is there a follow up of this boa tamed down a bit? So sad it hadn’t been handled for 3 years.
It was.... a little bit more than 3. If you look on Alex's channel, Rosie (the boa) was kept in the classroom for around 20 years and got minimal human contact. Alex has two followup videos on his channel, GoHerping, you should check them out.
How bad is it? Just got a 3ft red tail yesterday and I’m so nervous lol. Never been bit by a snake before. I have a decent pain tolerance, tons of tattoos, piercings, including tats on my face.
Its more scary than painful. Obviously try and NOT get bitten, but its sort of inevitable as a snake owner. Just relax and don't freak out.
You’ll laugh when u get bit it’s nothing.
Poor snake, so stressed. Never had attention in her life before.
Me, as I watched the first 48 seconds, gradually realizing he was going to get bitten oN PURPOSE: 👁👄👁
Wow
thats defensive. I got bit yesterday and coiled and it fractured the head of my radius and the pain is excruciating. insane really, so so so much worse than i wouldve immagined, but this was an over 5 foot Dumerils Boa
Did it hurt?
I’m surprised they can draw that much blood. I just got bit by a much smaller corn snake and it feels weird.
wow. I have 2 small corn snakes... Never bit me. How does it feel? hurt? bleed?
How bad did it feel? Scared to get bit by my 1 foot lol
Whats the name of that python?
It’s the hair for me! 🤤
CRAZY
Love ur vids!!!!
Thanks!
1-10 how bad was the pain?

I love the disclimer, i personaly dont want my hand or face tk be bitten by my boa but feels like my snake is imporroble to be tamed
So people hate on Brian Barcyk but they coax her into biting, and it's educational, brave and other shit?... I mean, what??
Looks like fun...
It was quite an experience!
Is that okay or no

But kinda good this is out there. Snakes aren't dangerous, just scared.
Ripperoni.
Anna Bee this is also the reason why male humans are more successful financially. They take risks many females won’t.
Shut up lol. You literally saying dumb crap like this begging for attention
I get your point, but it's really not just males, it's more of by a person to person basis. and Fernando Fernandez, there are plenty of financially successful women who have got where they are by themselves, so I'm not really sure what you're talking about.
Bruh that’s gotta hurt but cool to see
You couldn't pay me to do that....and I've handled snakes for years, never been bit somehow though.
Why provoke a stressed-out snake to bite?
this was so scary to watch
Rosie was so scared of you.
My boas strike the glass tank and his bottom jaw wounded. What should i do? Thanks :')
Note: sorry for the bad grammar
This is super late, but when in doubt, ask your vet. A RUclips comment section isn't really the best place to ask for advice. You could also google reptile forums and ask there.
Did Brian make this thumbnail?
I'd say its a step up, considering it is actually a fram from the video and not some random retic head photoshopped to look larger than people.
If it ain't been touched or handled, THAT'S probably exactly why it's defensive. It's in its basic natural state with zero conditioning, and whenever it saw a person, it was some skiddish douche dancing in front of its face like a big warm predator.

I have a female just as big lol I hope I don’t get bit during feeding
Stressing the snake out is never good,
Honestly not that bad for the size of it
U can get a nasty, infection too, risky.
Stop!
Does anyone know why her mouth is open
She's hissing and wants to look more threatening
im weird for finding this funny and cute
Shameful.

And as she was making her way down too the shore? A Jogger was getting close and It was a Path for disaster.
As Jogger approached, he didn't seem to be looking where he was stepping. More looking at all the hot Babes in our party. And when he was about 10 feet from encountering a 6' Boa? We Said to him" HEY' Watch OUT! There's A Snake right There", and He Looked at us and almost started to smile* HA HA! Then he looked* and SAW! BOOM! DUDE Jumped like a escaped tire bouncing off freeway rails. Was probably the best reaction I ever saw from others reacting to Rosy. She Eventually made it too the Lake shore again.
By Then; Many people had become spectators of Rosy and her first "Outdoor Romp' as far as on ground and near water. (LOL). But needless to say, Everyone there was for it. Let her into the water. I fought and thought and fought and thought, and 30 people in water to make barrier and keep her contained. Plus ME? Jeesh, I surly wanted Rosy to enjoy a "REAL SWIM" . Like a Dog in a Chuckar pen. Pure Heaven? Anyways. Was Pretty Cool. Made many "new Friends"* that day with her and threw out the day' Hundreds saw and met her and learned her non aggressiveness. (30 in water and 300 onshore by then! HA HA) Sounds Perfect! But the vet assumes she contracted a rare mite, while not visible' burrowed into her and she was dead before even had a chance. Probably from the water he said. Especially of a lot of birds. She passed at 6' 8 and I never knew her age. I cared for her for about 6 years and only grew a few in just those. Never weighed her either. She was Heavy. She was happy neck warmer. Never bit anyone other then me, and only by mistake. To be Honest? More people were freaked out watching me bang a rat in the head with a big wooden spoon. LMAO! Shake the Bag BABY! Shake IT GOOD!
Oh my Gosh. Too Much. But sorry. I did it. Obviously chickens didnt need to be disoriented for feeding, and the baby rabbits were more run then defensive the rats are more so defensive sometime. Will know when buy them. The bigger they were, the more awnry it seemed? I don't know why. was long ago and i'm sure is a different protocol for this stuff now. BUT? Thats what I was told to do.
I'm not telling NO ONE to do ANY THING ! I'm sharing my Experience Caring for a large snake for many years. At Least' my stupid Dog comesback after calling for an Hour!
YEE HaW! Much Love ya all! Take care and make good decisions. 1 little bite can come back.
Jaws .. ..... ...... >
I can hardly read what you wrote but I get your point. People can be weird when faced with fear. It's sad to hear of her death, though, and I'm glad she lived a happy life with you.
How bout a video of you biting the snake....
Ohh my female bci was so upset that i needed to bath her, so she just bite my arm witout any hiss or anything else. And she does this every time when she gets upset or angry or anything. Just silent bites and immediately releases :^(
Hahah that's kinda cute
