June 15, 200421 yr A 92-year-old man living in a Himalayan village in India has survived 272 snake bites by following a simple tip - never eat salt, a report said. Amar Singh, whose home is deep in the remote Narag valley in India's mountainous Himachal Pradesh state, loves the creatures and despite being bitten never hits or kills them, the United News of India said. Instead, he picks up the hissing snakes and deposits them in their jungle homes. Singh received his survival tip more than 50 years ago from a traditional healer of snake bites, the report said.

June 15, 200421 yr Come on, at some point it became fun for the masochist And they all bit me in the groin remind me to wear a cup if I ever handle snakes. Then again, I would have a cool story..."I lost the left one to a desert rattler in Pheonix, the other one has been to scared to come down ever since"

June 15, 200421 yr He credits salt? Ok. After the first dozen bites, he'd probably have some decent immunity.

June 15, 200421 yr i've actually read that if you get bit several times by a snake your body begins to develop somewhat an immunity to those kinds of venoms (i.e hemotoxic, neurotoxic, myotoxic, etc...)
