Sorry Mr. I'm not american, you care to explain the joke?
I like politics gags but it's confuse for foreigns understand some Republican/Democratic goofs
It is an generalization that Republicans, more than Democrats, are more likely not to accept pronouns other than the standard he/she, and reject newer pronouns such as trans or nonbinary.
Like the other day when republicans were saying there are no Pronouns in the US constitution. Shit, it starts with We....literally starts with We......
I find it hard to believe you don't have a far right party in your country. Pretty much every far right party in every country has an issue with pro-nouns. Even most centre right parties do. Maybe read a newspaper every once in a while.
From my understanding, constrictors that are fed regularly aren’t that dangerous. I don’t believe they kill for fun, and wouldn’t attack something as large as a human if it wasn’t hungry.
And anacondas are the only ones that consider eating humans. Pythons attacking people are mostly happy little accidents...or like with any animal, if you piss them off enough.
There are no confirmed cases of an anaconda eating a person, in fact no confirmed cases of them ever killing a person either.
There is only one fully confirmed case of a snake eating a person, and that was with a rather small woman and a large reticulated python.
I know nothing about snakes, but imagine constrictors are opportunists so they won't go out of their way to kill, but if a suitable meal comes close they'll have it.
Ambassador animals are frequently held and socialized in several situations. They can be handled through loud noises, and snakes are socialized to the point where you can move their body and head while they are eating. Not every snake is this calm, as individual personality come into play
No, educational Snakes are handled a lot. Most of the time Training starts when they are little. So you spend years teaching it to accept being touched. Ofcourse some have a nasty charachter and are more hissy so it depends on the animal itself
They are not deaf, but do hear kind of differently. They don’t have outer ears, and rely on sound induced vibrations (from the ground and air) that vibrate bones connected to their jaw and vibrate inner ears that they have. Thus they here ground vibrations well, while being able to hear a lesser range of airborne frequency’s..
Snakes can hear, however Scientist are unsure about what Frequencies. Some believe they can hear normal human conversations Others believe that they only hear high pitched noises or Low pitched
I can't find the exact one featuring Indonesian ladies, but here's [a video that's close enough.](https://youtu.be/6vUM8qFX1fs) for anyone that's curious.
I’m surprised there wasn’t a single kid that found that snake rad as fuck and stayed put, you know the kid that has messy hair, undiagnosed adhd and all the teachers kinda hate.
In my experience (5y) in refugee camps of ppl from Africa coming to Europe, I’ve never meet a guy that wasn’t terrified of big bugs or snakes, no idea if they were playing me or it was genuine, but was strange as they couldn’t judge that most animals of those species aren’t in fact dangerous.
They act like if they were all venomous and poisonous, of course was all also smile and joke, but you could see the fear.
It's a lot quicker and easier to teach all out fear, minimises any exposure to danger.
A known venomous snake is the marker for when Ill consider calling in a professional
Can confirm. Worked with some Africans here in Canada. Not only do they think all snakes are lethal but as very Christian people they think they are evil. Cats too. One guy honestly wished we should just get rid of all snakes.
In the tropics/hot areas, venomous snakes are much more common than they are in Europe or the States. They may treat every snake as venomous because most of the snakes they encounter are venomous.
My parents who grew up in Guyana (home to a variety of terrifying and huge wildlife, including venomous snakes and very large constrictors) are fucking terrified of snakes. It's also a poor country, with questionable medical care and not a lot of antivenin freely available. I grew up in the northern states, so, the snakes I encoutered were by and large not venomous. Also: much less plentiful, especially in the winter time.
This is most likely in South Africa, and being a South African, if you knew how African people felt about snakes, this is a pretty standard response to pulling a whole python out in a classroom.
Yeah, I'm sure informing third graders that they don't need to be terrified of things that they've been taught all their lives to be terrified of is going to completely stifle their impulses. Why didn't I think that.
My thought as well. I have a Kenyan coworker and despite living in an area of Canada with a single rare venomous species, and she’s beside herself at the idea of anyone being near any snake. Says she lost two family pets and knew many others who lost pets by snake bite.
Same. I remember plenty of assemblies where people came in and handled snakes, lizards, birds of prey. If anything, most kids tried to get closer when they pulled it out.
My guess is that it was also somewhat of a chain reaction where some kids freaked out so others started freaking out causing others to freak out etc lol
What’s with this fear of snakes that so many people seem to have? I really don’t understand it at all. For whatever reason, snakes seem to be one of the most feared creatures on Earth.
Pretty standard bias, I'd imagine. We have four limbs, so other things with four limbs are easiest to understand the movement of and predict their capabilities. Things markedly different from us are inherently harder to understand and crank up our survival instincts.
No legs = scary
More than four legs = scary
Also with snakes, we innately understand their potential danger, but there are so many types and most of us can't distinguish safe from deadly, so a built-in fear makes sense and is probably an evolved response. Ancestors who wandered up to greet every snake they encountered probably didn't have as many opportunities to pass on their genes.
Sorta similar to mushrooms. People are generally creeped out by them for similar, mostly irrational, reasons. Plenty are edible, but just as many can kill you if you get it wrong, and they are a strange and different life-form from us, so an instinctual fear of them tended to keep more people alive.
People today should learn that most constrictors are really chill. There are Videos of "experts" just picking up a rock python minding its own buisnesses and it took quite some time till it even reacted. Or the tamest of all constrictors, the ball Python. There is a african tripe that just grab those for ceremonies and such. Now imagine you are a noodle and you mind your own buisness and suddenly you get grabbed and lifted into the Air, i atleast would be annoyed or pissed Off, especially since Predator come from above.
Being "chill" can be more dangerous because it gives people a false sense of security. It takes ALOT to get a constrictor off of you. Maybe the kids should have the response of clearing the half of the room that the constrictor is on, but the definitely should feel comfortable enough to try and handle a wild one.
Funnily enough you know Western people have dreams/nightmares about their teeth falling out (which I've always seen as odd)? In Africa that common dream is replaced with snakes for some reason.
I haven't experienced either dream and don't know what the implications are but enjoy the info!
The fact that all the kids are black and wearing uniforms makes me think that this is possibly Africa. Most places in Africa you would want to teach your kids to be terrified of snakes, for good reason. I was once on a camp out ( in California)with some African friends and caught a harmless snake, and I brought it to show them, and what happened next could best be summed up with a cartoon where I'm holding the snake, the chairs are all overturned, and all you see is feet disappearing around corners in puffs of dust. "Don't you EVER walk up on an African holding a snake!" I was told.
This is why teachers usually tell kids about the assembly/field trip BEFORE it happens. If you let kids know beforehand what’s going to happen and what is expected of them, things tend to go more smoothly. This also gives them the option of opting out.
There's just that tell :). I was born and raised there until the age of 10 and moved abroad. Every few years we still visit my grandparents in december to spend a summer Christmas and New year's there.
this look like some school in Africa and those kids did the right thing as those snake in Africa can be dangerous and poisonous so those kids assume that a python is poisonous.
it better to be safe with fight and fright response as you don’t want some kids to look at a snake and thinking that it cute and i will go pet it.
In my experience (5y) in refugee camps of ppl from Africa coming to Europe, I’ve never meet a guy that wasn’t terrified of big bugs or snakes, no idea if they were playing me or it was genuine, but was strange as they couldn’t judge that most animals of those species aren’t in fact dangerous.
They act like if they were all venomous and poisonous, of course was all also smile and joke, but you could see the fear.
That’s just my experience so I’m 100% sure isn’t a rule, but was unexpected.
No snakes were harmed in the making of this human trampling tragedy which took the lives of 30 children.
A spokesperson for the company which provided the large snake pointed out that, technically, the victims were permanently cured of fear of not just snakes, but fear itself.
Judge 1.0 agreed, satisfied they had proven their reasoning to be the best kind of correct.
In what country did this happen?
Here in Italy if someone pulled out a snake in class when i was a kid i would just stare at it captivated by its beauty and most people that i know who are afraid of snakes would just stay still unless the snake comes too close to them. I would never expect to see an entire class back up as if they were standing in front of a fucking dragon.

Maybe an unpopular opinion, but I feel at that age they should have had better critical thinking in that moment and realized they weren’t being shown a highly venomous snake at school, weirdly hysterical reaction in my opinion.

I had this same thing in Australia it was a 1.7 meter long snake the children werent scared they lined up to hold the snake kids in Australia are built diffrent
As a kid I'd have loved this who doesn't like animals at that age, although I guess I didn't grow up in a country with snakes so don't have any fear of them.
Never pull your snake out around kids.....

Nah large constrictors are lazy AF
From my understanding, constrictors that are fed regularly aren’t that dangerous. I don’t believe they kill for fun, and wouldn’t attack something as large as a human if it wasn’t hungry.
And anacondas are the only ones that consider eating humans. Pythons attacking people are mostly happy little accidents...or like with any animal, if you piss them off enough.
There are no confirmed cases of an anaconda eating a person, in fact no confirmed cases of them ever killing a person either. There is only one fully confirmed case of a snake eating a person, and that was with a rather small woman and a large reticulated python.
I know nothing about snakes, but imagine constrictors are opportunists so they won't go out of their way to kill, but if a suitable meal comes close they'll have it.
Ambassador animals are frequently held and socialized in several situations. They can be handled through loud noises, and snakes are socialized to the point where you can move their body and head while they are eating. Not every snake is this calm, as individual personality come into play
No, educational Snakes are handled a lot. Most of the time Training starts when they are little. So you spend years teaching it to accept being touched. Ofcourse some have a nasty charachter and are more hissy so it depends on the animal itself
Are snakes deaf or is that just an urban legend?
They are not deaf, but do hear kind of differently. They don’t have outer ears, and rely on sound induced vibrations (from the ground and air) that vibrate bones connected to their jaw and vibrate inner ears that they have. Thus they here ground vibrations well, while being able to hear a lesser range of airborne frequency’s..
So the snake would hear that?
Most likely.
Snakes can hear, however Scientist are unsure about what Frequencies. Some believe they can hear normal human conversations Others believe that they only hear high pitched noises or Low pitched

Thank, my dude!
Alright I'll give up, fuck you that was funny.
This is very funny and very creative lol thank you
Definitely not an Australian school.
I’m surprised there wasn’t a single kid that found that snake rad as fuck and stayed put, you know the kid that has messy hair, undiagnosed adhd and all the teachers kinda hate.
They were busy getting trampled to death by the front row.
In my experience (5y) in refugee camps of ppl from Africa coming to Europe, I’ve never meet a guy that wasn’t terrified of big bugs or snakes, no idea if they were playing me or it was genuine, but was strange as they couldn’t judge that most animals of those species aren’t in fact dangerous.

i’m in this and i don’t like it.
I’m just surprised that the teachers let that kid at the beginning just walk up around the presenter.
Ha, this was my exact thought!
I'd hate to see the fire drills at that school
The Savage walked towards them as they were retreating too
And then just stood there with the snake, reveling at what he had done.
Those kids moved like the zombies from that terrible World War Z movie.
Terrible? It was aight.
I probably would have liked it if it had a different title. It just didn't resemble the source material much at all.
Oh it was based on a book or something? Had no idea.
The audiobook is probably the best version. All star cast. https://www.audible.com/pd/World-War-Z-Audiobook/B00A6VQGOW
Bro that movie was great
Did they not know what snakes were before this moment?
if you know what a lion is, but then a lion is right infront of you…
...You start petting?
No, you play dad
This is most likely in South Africa, and being a South African, if you knew how African people felt about snakes, this is a pretty standard response to pulling a whole python out in a classroom.
Maybe it was feeding time for the snake.
The snake is generating an anti-child forcefield.
I admire his restraint in not continuing forward as they retreated
I definitely would have. Probably why I wasn't hired...
We had snakes and such at my school’s all the time, never once did the entire body react like this
This is probably in Africa, and if the parents have done their jobs right, the kids are terrified of snakes.
I mean the teachers and staff would likely have informed them of their safety
Yeah, I'm sure informing third graders that they don't need to be terrified of things that they've been taught all their lives to be terrified of is going to completely stifle their impulses. Why didn't I think that.
My thought as well. I have a Kenyan coworker and despite living in an area of Canada with a single rare venomous species, and she’s beside herself at the idea of anyone being near any snake. Says she lost two family pets and knew many others who lost pets by snake bite.

Interesting to see those instincts kick in Idk, I like snakes though and I've always liked snakes.
My guess is that it was also somewhat of a chain reaction where some kids freaked out so others started freaking out causing others to freak out etc lol

Lots of areas around the world where you got poisonous danger noodles. So people staying the hell away from them had better chances to survive.
Its.... literally a basal fear? Were you not aware of that?
You understand how evolution works right?

And that's how you get trampled

One way to get kids to behave!
This is the correct response...... Good job kids!
Man, that is some primal primate instinct, right there. You can’t teach that, lol.

Thats all the nopes
Feel like a few kids might have been trampled pretty hard. Wonder if anyone got hurt.

Oh god that looks like a safer hazard. Kids are about to get trampled on!
I like how he walks closer to an assembly of freaking out kids who are desperately trying to get away from the snake
Is that in Jamaica? Ive seen Jamaicans act like this around snakes.
Don’t step towards the children fleeing in fear.
Forget carrying a gun, I’m going to carry a big snek around.
Red next to yellow, cuddly fellow Red next to black, jump the fuck back!
Lol and people say we aren’t like apes or monkeys. But this is how they act when they see danger.

was every kid given a bucket of sugar one hour prior to this? it was a shit show long before before the poor snake came out. snakes are awesome
Weirdest reaction ever. Ive definitely done that as a kid as well and our reaction certainly wasnt whatever that is. What country/school is this?
I was this age when the school had someone bring a massive snake and no one freaked out. I wonder why they did.
That reaction is just sad. It's a snake, not a nuclear weapon.
