"Snake King" dies after cobra bite

Not me, bro. I don't mess with the venomous stuff. That's a real good way to get yourself killed. Or at least mutilated. Many snake venoms will introduce intense pain and dramatic swelling of the tissues. The normal medical procedure to relieve the pressure caused by the swelling tissue as a fasciotomy, which is basically slitting open the skin to relieve that pressure.

Sorry, in my opinion, playing with venomous snakes is just plain foolish. And as that article spells out pretty plainly, sometimes and express ticket to pushing up daisies.
