Man Puts Snake And Giant Tarantula In His Mouth

A Brazillian man has become an Internet sensation after shooting a

video where he puts a live tarantula and a snake in his mouth at the

same time.



The creepy footage shows Arteval Duarte, who calls himself the 'Ninja

of Serpents', handling a banded cat-eyed snake and a pinktoe

tarantula. Then he carefully wraps the snake around the spider and

place both of them in his mouth.

With the lens close to his face, Mr Duarte let the creatures both

crawl inside his mouth till then the snake successfully unwrapped

itself and the tarantula stepped out from his mouth. The 'handler'

says he has been charming and training poisonous animals for more than

15 years.

The venom of a pinktoe tarantula is considered mild, even compared to

other new-world tarantulas. The banded cat-eyed tends not to bite

humans when handled, but when it does, the venom has relatively mild

effects in most individuals (some describe it as a slight

irritating/itching sensation with slight swelling). The snake is not

considered a risk to human health.
