It's off the topic of snake bite, but I once read a paper in a medical journal about gila monster bites. (I now wish I'd copied it.) The victims were 100% male, and there were very high percentages of body art and high blood alcohol level. Gilas are slow and placid creatures, so you definitely have to be provoking them and have your reflexes dulled.
