November 14, 2006: New record for number of rattlesnakes in mouth

The official cap:
Jackie Bibby, aka 'The Texas Snakeman,' holds in his mouth ten 2 ft. 6-inch-long western diamondback rattlesnakes for 12.5 seconds without any assistance to set a new Guinness World Record for Most Live Rattlesnakes Held In Mouth.

Some of these so-called records are seriously bogus. But in any case, here is *another* kind of snake in the mouth dude. There's no call for this sort of thing, so no, I don't understand it.

I wonder if he has a stiff drink prior to doing this? And can you imagine the feel on his tongue with all those pissed off rattle snakes wiggling their rattling tails? :eek:
Gleep • Nov 14, 2006 10:28 am
Those things can't taste good.

Not without butter, and maybe a nice bernaise sauce.:D

How far from the end of the tail is a snake's anus?

She was on SNL for a season or two, wasn't she? Is this from SNL?

It's not from SNL. No sneaky Googling.

could you imagine if one of those fuckers got a nip at his nuts? or all six of them??

The bowler hat prevents nut nipping, I think.

Oh, BTW...this guy is a flippin' [COLOR="Red"][SIZE="7"]IDIOT!!![/SIZE][/COLOR]
Clodfobble • Nov 14, 2006 11:14 am
Between the weird-ass shirt, pants, and knee-high boots, I'm thinking that's secretly a pretty protective outfit he's wearing, and the bowler hat is just to complete the image and make it look like he dresses like a moron everyday. He's probably so confident because he knows there's very little chance he'll actually be bitten.

I once ate one prepared in Rice-a-roni. Tasted like chicken.

Duh.

The record should be any number greater than zero.

Of course, it would be a REAL record if he were French kissing them. Doing it from the rattle end tastes just like chicken.
glatt • Nov 14, 2006 1:00 pm
Did he supply the snakes? If so, can you milk all the venom out of a snake, at least temporarily? Or remove the venom duct/sac? Cause that's what I'd do if I found myself in a situation where I had to stuff rattlesnakes in my mouth. Doesn't happen too often.

What would Freud say about that image?
wolf • Nov 14, 2006 1:22 pm
Sometimes a snake is just a snake.

Either that, or whoeeee, that is one disturbed motherfucker.

I don't think that you can get stuck in both the oral and genital stage at the same time, at least in a strict Freudian interpretation. Gotta pick one and stick with it.
xoxoxoBruce • Nov 14, 2006 1:47 pm
I'd be more afraid of one snake. All those snakes together, don't feel threatened. Unlike people, the mob mentality of critters is usually to chill out, except for the proverbial mothers with young or territorial male.

I hope he washed them first....unless they were on the ground less than 5 seconds.;)

Bart is dressed for a night of horrorshow viddying of Halloween treats with his droogs. Later, perhaps a bit of the old in-out, in-out?

On my five-foot ten-inch snake it's about a foot from the tail's point to the anus, since you ask ...
milkfish • Nov 14, 2006 7:13 pm
Is it significant that all ten snakes be 2 ft 6 in long? I mean, the guy's not making like Linda Lovelace or anything.
xant • Nov 14, 2006 7:25 pm
BTW, you can eat rattlesnake, and it's delicious when made right.
Clodfobble • Nov 14, 2006 11:32 pm
I make it a point not to eat food that's already been in someone else's mouth.
zippyt • Nov 14, 2006 11:44 pm
Rattler is Verry tasty squered , and slow cooked over a fire with MRE BBQ sauce drizzled over it !!! : yum :
SteveDallas • Nov 14, 2006 11:56 pm
My comments have already been taken (wolf, any number > 0; Sheldonrs, Freud reference).

So I'll just say: Ewwwwwww.

Zip, do you have to put them on the skewers so they don't curl up when you cook them? How do you debone the little bastards?
Tonchi • Nov 15, 2006 3:34 am
I'm sorry, but I laughed hysterically for 15 minutes when I saw the picture in question! It made me remember a horror movie which my cousin starred in back in 1983, where her breasts turn into deadly snakes and kill people :lol2:

Snake soup with fresh ginger and scallions is quite good. I had it in China.

Like filetting a fish. Separate the top from the bottom after cooking and slicing the skin.

Now where is the rudimentary hipbone on that pic?
Shawnee123 • Nov 15, 2006 8:57 am
Hmmm. reminds me of a Goldthwait stand-up:

"tastes just like chicken! So buy a f*cking chicken, it's the cheapest f*cking meat you can buy."
CaliforniaMama • Nov 18, 2006 2:41 am
Aren't the rattles dead skin or something? I keep thinking "what if they broke off?"

BTW, how much does a snake weigh?

And is it true they only go potty every 6 months or so?? What if it decided it had to go RIGHT NOW??? Now THAT would be a show worth seeing!!!:shock:
Aliantha • Nov 18, 2006 2:52 am
Chicken isn't the cheapest meat you can buy here. At the moment pork is. Followed by lamb then beef (depending on the cut though).
DucksNuts • Nov 18, 2006 3:55 am
Porks just nasty!!
chrisinhouston • Nov 18, 2006 4:38 pm
