I knew a guy from 7th Group (SFC Tio Avera) who bit the head off a copperhead back in 76 out at Ft Riley, KS. He said the trick was to break the snake's neck first, which locked the jaws shut. T and I got thrown out of a bar in Manhattan, KS after getting smoked and causing a waitress to spill a tray of drinks on the CSM from the ROTC summer camp. That wasn't too smart but it sure was funny!

God whispers in your soul and speaks to your mind.
Sometimes when you don't have time to listen, He has to throw a brick at you.
It's your choice: Listen to the whisper, or wait for the brick.

I just saw this on the news. I've done some dumb things while drunk but I've never heard of anything this stupid.

Well that tops any stupid things I have heard for a long time. I give him a 10 for being so stupid and another 10 for surviving his stupidity.
I am sure no one else can top this but there is California.

Seems to me we had a support troop (1st SFG(A)) in Thailand place a baby Krait in his mouth to impress the local girls.

If memory serves he nearly lost his life.

These guys might be related.....

"You can assume alcohol was involved," he said. Actually, not just beer. Something he chose to describe as a "mixture of stupid stuff."

stupid stuff indeed.

Nice! Good job. I bet the snake was real tasty.

I have a question though...

Since it only bit his tongue, and not his crotch, he would still be in the gene pool.

Does that disqualify him from the Darwin Award?
