One of my friends owns stacks of venomous snakes, but the only ones he ever free handles are his broad-headeds, pale-headeds and a red belly that he's had for eleven years that was one of his first venomous snakes.
I know that some people overseas don't understand that Australia has fast moving, slow striking snakes (compared to America's slow moving, fast striking snakes, eg. a rattlesnake), not to say that a strike is slow, but a rattlesnake certainly has something on a red belly. ANYWAY, I understand that this is what some people believe, but to think that a snake can't come back on itself and get you, if it really wants to, is ludicrous. If a snake wants you, it's got you.
