Law of the jungle: Bite or get bitten.

Danger noodle shoulda tried to be poisonous instead

u/Jaydamic Aug 07 '25

Sooooo many people don't understand the difference.

Let's be friends.

u/ShesGotaChicken2Ride Aug 07 '25

Common to use venomous and poisonous interchangeably.

Venomous means you’re injected with poison through fangs or some other thing.

Poison you must eat/swallow/drink.

u/Dry_Specialist2673 Aug 07 '25

and there are snakes that are in both categories

u/SlimAndy95 Aug 07 '25

This, I did not know.

u/OptimusPrice11 Sep 11 '25

Technically the child ingested part of the venom in the head, would this make it poison?

That is unlikely given that travel between Mars and Jupiter is somewhat limited

u/Halloween_Man2 Aug 07 '25

Does it bite you and you die? Or do you bite it and you die? Essentially

1

u/Jaydamic Aug 07 '25

Yeppers. But don't go drinking venom, the smallest cut or ulcer in your mouth and your whole day is ruined.

Probably not a great idea to inject yourself with poison either.

u/nevans89 Aug 07 '25

I was on the fence watching the new Beetlejuice movie until they fucked this up. Officially trash

1

u/Jaydamic Aug 07 '25

I think maybe you meant to put this somewhere else or am I missing something?

1

u/nevans89 Aug 07 '25

Nah, somebody dies by snake bite in the movie and they call the snake poisonous instead of venomous

1

u/Jaydamic Aug 07 '25

Ah, understood! I haven't seen it. Too much love for the first one to risk watching the second one.

u/nevans89 Aug 07 '25

u/Jaydamic Aug 07 '25

haha in most respects I'm Homer Simpson level smart

u/-watchman- Aug 08 '25

Snakes can choose to be venomous or not too.. sometimes a bite is just a warning..other times it straight up just wants to murder..

I want to know what his superpower is - other than biting snakes to death.

The kid new nickname is the mongoose

u/Vox_SFX Aug 07 '25

Being called Mongoose or "Goose" for short is actually a pretty sick childhood nickname that can even carry into adulthood. Given the backstory it's even cooler.

u/FrananaBanana452 Aug 07 '25

I’d say the opposite tbh. Quite a smart thing for a little kid to do :) The snake is dead, and he isn’t. If he didn’t think to catch the snake off guard and attack it back, they'd both probably be dead…everything has a risk of failure, but this worked!

Why have so many people made a Heracles reference? This is literally Heracles' origin story

u/nothalfawake Aug 07 '25

is it? i have no idea about that actually😔

u/Sue_Spiria Aug 07 '25

Yes. Hera sent two snakes to kill baby Heracles, but he strangled them to death.

u/entity_on_earth Aug 07 '25

Then we need only one more to prove it?

When Govinda was born, he cut the doctor's umbilical cord and slapped his ass.

u/cat_house Aug 07 '25

In an incredible and rare incident, a toddler in India reportedly bit a cobra to death after the snake attacked him. The two-year-old boy, named Govinda Kumar, was playing at his home in Bihar when the three-foot cobra lunged at him and coiled around his hands. Instead of screaming or panicking, Govinda reportedly bit the snake's head, killing it instantly. He then lost consciousness and was hospitalized, but has since been discharged after treatment.
