Step 1: Find a venomous snake and pick it up by the tail.
Step 2: Wait, you're still here?

Can't you just eat the snakes?

Yeah...

This is a prime example of complete stupidity permeating the defenses of internet distribution. This guy will die off before he gets a fraction of the notoriety of Steve Irwin.
You don't pick snakes up by their tails.
You can eat snake just fine provided you don't consume the venom glands.

My thought exactly. This seems almost like Jackass Downunder version. There are much easier and safer ways to catch rabbits than using venomous snakes and since use can eat the snakes, there are also easier and safer ways to catch the snakes.

Agree with all of the above.
The most useless survival technique I've ever seen.
"Oy mate, just gotta have nets on ya at all times, besides the expertise required to piss off venomous snakes and not get bitten..."

Been catching snakes like this since if was 15 or so, never 4 at a time and mostly browns but never been close to being bitten. They can climb up their own body and bite but as long as you keep them at arms distance and shake them if they climb you will be fine.
The only reason not to carry them upside down like this is so that it doesn't dislocate the spine and it causes a lot of discomfort to the snake (or so ive been told)

If you listen carefully when he runs, you can hear the clanging of his steel balls.

I believe he did. 4x in a row

And the rattling of the rocks in his head.

I don't even believe that the snakes did anything. He basically just blocked as many holes as he could (using snakes instead of rocks), and then put a net on the open holes. Not impressed.

It turns out that this is the easiest way to catch rabbits.

What you other commenters don't understand is that the video itself is the ultimate method to catch rabbits. Other rabbits will see this video, and surrender on the spot the moment this guy shows up with his nets.

It depends. All native Australian wildlife is protected and needs a special permit for destruction.

All introduced species can be killed.

That said, if it's a survival or defence situation you would not be prosecuted for killing native animals.

...he does remind me of someone though...must be the accent.

Comment hidden because you are ignoring dag.(show it anyway)

Australia has a special kind of crazy - maybe it's the magnetic flow. This guy's got it.
