Man catches black mamba with bare hands

Black Mamba’s are not snakes to be messed with. They are big, mean and extremely venomous. Some call them the deadliest snake in the entire world!

So it is not exactly a very joyous situation when one of these slithers into your house.

Well that is what exactly happened to this woman in Durban, South Africa.

Thankfully there was a professional snake handler at hand to help remove the enormous reptile from the premises.

A video posted on Youtube by Nat Geo documents the entire thing and shows handler Nick Evans crouched down on the floor desperately trying to coax the snake out of its hiding. The snake on its part hisses loudly at him and the trademark black colour of the Mamba’s mouth gets clearly visible.

The highly venomous snake tries to slither away, but Evans is quick on his feet and grabs it with his bare hands.

It turns out the snake, which was over eight-feet tall, had come into the house attracted by the many pets the woman had.
