'Venom Man' Lets Deadliest Snakes Bite Him

Amateur scientist injects himself with snake venom to build up a tolerance, takes consecutive bites from two deadly snakes to prove it works!


Tim Friede, an amateur scientist, amazingly takes back-to-back bites from a black mamba and a PGN taipan on purpose and claims to be making himself immune from their venom. Tim has self-inflicted more than 160 bites in 16 years of research and is hoping his experiments will help to develop a human vaccine for snake bites.
