Got to be very careful in differentiating between 'Most Venomous" 'Most Deadly" and 'Most Dangerous"

Saw Scaled viper would possibly be most dangerous followed various Cobras simply because of the number of deaths resulting from their bite
Banded Krait probably most deadly at 50% death rate even with anti venine
Inland Taipan Most Venomous

lol I was just about to say God help you when "The Fan" sees this one

it is difficult and impractical to give a "top ten" as there is varying factors and not all snakes venoms have been tested against each other but...........

most Toxicologists seem to agree that the inland Taipans venom is the most toxic,
Bryan fry explained Brown snake and Coastal Taipan venoms toxicity are in a league of there own as there is so many ways the venom can kill you,there like a biological weapon so that would rate them very high drop for drop.

1 the one you just trod on....
2 the one you thought was an olive python and thought you'd show your friends......
3 the one in you're hand your'e not paying attention to because your mate is wrangling a much bigger one....

anyone want to finish the list?

 

[RustyViper]

I was refering to most venomous and australia has top eight most, then 11, 12, 13, 17. i think, but it changes, depending on who you ask, all these lists have some of the snakes, but not all, and remember, Land snakes, not sea snakes and such, lol

The list you are referring to is so open to debate that its not funny
There are so many snakes that were never even tested when that list was made many years ago
So dont put all your money on any bet involving that list
