It would be cool if he becomes immortal though.
this has nothing to do with getting high off the venom??
[QUOTE=Rediscover;39258766]this has nothing to do with getting high off the venom??[/QUOTE]
but getting high is a side effect
this is incredibly stupid
This is fascinating, although all those injections made it very hard for me to watch.
I don't like injections
This reminds me how in Amazonian tribes they inject themselves with venom to make themselves better hunters, from what this guy's saying it kinda makes sense why they'd think that.
Look at how he's shaking.
The venom is clearly having a negative effect on him
I'm wondering weather or not it's possible for him to ever get married some day.
That gloopy blood looked horrible jesus christ!
Not surprised that his hands are shaking.
I bet he gets weird looks in that boxing gym with all those needles.
That is incredibly interesting
Pretty much everyone has a negative view about snake venom (why [I]wouldn't[/I] they?) but it's cool to think about the positive effects of it, in proper dosages and what-not; hopefully something useful does come of it in further studies.
Medicinal uses of snake venom, besides immunizations, seem to coincide with that of "natural remedies."

i don't think shaking=negative effect
Vice's documentaries are always great, but since I've subscribed to them on Facebook I think less of them, as their articles are, without fail, all complete shit.
If he's willing to risk his life as a voluntary test subject to this kind of stuff then why not let him.
It's super interesting stuff.
I like charizard the best
That wasnt a friend.

Very informative video, thanks. I love stuff from vice.
chari
what does he do for a job
"I don't have a proper education"
It all makes sense now..

How so?
Well, him becoming immune to some of the negative side effects do check out on how the body defends itself. I hope with the correct research we can create a shot with all the negative body destroying side effects gone and leaves the increased muscular ability and confidence.
I hope somebody picks this guy up and research on what it does to his body.
Right now,I just think its mostly the placebo effect doing the work.
I wonder how much of a resistance he has compared to a normal person.
I wonder if his blood is still turning into jello-y goop after injecting the venom.

He said his arm feels like jello so yeah the venom is having an affect on his muscles and blood
I don't see how the Hematoxin being good or bad, but the neurotoxin is probably the cause of the shaking.
[QUOTE=TrulliLulli;39260028]i don't think shaking=negative effect[/QUOTE]
It can be a sign of neurotoxins affecting him

I'm sorry, are you a doctor?
Honestly, if was shaking from anything it was probably the fear from handling a whole bunch of deadly snakes.

He shakes all the time, didn't you see when he was handling the syringes?
