This GoPro Video of a Pit of Rattlesnakes is a Bag Full of Nope!

Watch this full screen at your own risk…

Some people like snakes. I am not one of those people. I generally prefer to observe them in person at all but this GoPro video of a pit full of rattlesnakes was too tempting to avoid.

YouTuber Michael Delaney gets a little too close for comfort with his GoPro and the snakes really don’t like it as they attack the camera, knocking it into the pit with them.

Another Michael sums up how I feel about this whole encounter…

I’ll admit that the first strike caused an audible yelp and I came out of my seat. Now, I’m just double-checking under my desk to be safe.

This is yet another incredible example of previously impossible footage that anyone can now capture thanks to GoPro.
