A man who got bitten by a rattlesnake while trying to take a selfie with it now faces a medical bill of almost £100,000.
Todd Fassler’s entire arm went purple after he yanked the deadly animal from a bush and as he was composing the perfect shot it unsurprisingly bit him.
“My whole body was shaking and gyrating,” he said. “He literally paralysed my whole body.” “My tongue was like out of my mouth, my eyes were off to the side.”
The man from San Diego in California, US, had to empty two hospitals of their anti-venom supply and have the horrific wound repaired, reported
ABC’s 10 News.
Ironically Fassler had a pet rattlesnake for a year but after the attack by a reptile relation on July 4 he has released it into the wild.
