Another Selfie Screwup With A Critter
OK, this taking selfies with animals around – see the buffalo that gored an Instagram-loving tourist in Yellowstone – has gotten a little absurd, especially when you apparently decide it’s cool stupid to pick one up so you can snap your smartphone.
From ABC-10 in San Diego:
A local man who was nearly killed while trying to take a selfie with a rattlesnake racked up a whopping $150,000 hospital bill.
Doctors depleted the anti-venom stash at two different hospitals to treat Todd Fassler, who as it turns out once had a pet rattlesnake of his own. He sent us video he says shows him setting his snake free.
What a world.
