I am sure this has already been posted because everything I post is a repost or so they tell me but did you hear about this...
I say to myself... WTF
Why would you do this in the first place.
Oh well.

The article says drinks with preserved snakes are popular...really, would you expect a snake locked in a bottle of liquid for a year to still be alive? :Q

No wonder it bit him, probably pi$$ed out of it's mind and one hell of a hangover!

I call BS.

First off there would not be enough O2 in there to sustain any life for that long.
Second If the snake did live that long in the bottle, then there would be so much snake poop in the bottle that it would look like a sh!t storm.

third The snake would have been so intoxicated from the alcohol that he would have just lain there looking stupid.

Fourth What food would the snake survive on



This is utter BS that any first year law clerk could get dismissed.

Very likely that a "buddy" beat him to the booze and replaced the pickled snake, (do they eat the pickled "creature"?) with a live one, elapsed time ~hours. Bet the "buddy" is ROTFLMAO

WTF?!?! Thats the dumbest thing I have ever heard, there is no way it could have lived that long, just like Ulfwald said!

Well here is my take
First off there would not be enough O2 in there to sustain any life for that long.
The bottle had a cork which allowed air into the bottle.
Second If the snake did live that long in the bottle, then there would be so much snake poop in the bottle that it would look like a sh!t storm.
I agree unless the stuff was not filtered and then it would look awful anyway.
third The snake would have been so intoxicated from the alcohol that he would have just lain there looking stupid.
I agree totally but when drunk I have been known to bite :)
Fourth What food would the snake survive on
It is a known scientific fact that snakes can survive for more than a year without eating. They slow their metabolism like during hibernation. I would imagine a snake in a bottle would not move much.

I actually agree it is BS but still worth the read. :)

According to my highly accurate testing methods, that snake would be dead in approx 5-7 days from alcohol absorbtion through its skin alone, PLUS count in the fact that a wine cork can pass 1 cubic centimeter of gas at atmospheric pressure a day, and that is the cheapest POS wine cork I can find.

I think it is bullschiet. Either that, or the snake was not in alcohol but water, or the wine was made days prior and Mr. Snake got lucky. Thats it. If it was in there a year, there is no friggin way it could survive. Food wise it could, but the conditions it is in are so damn hostile there is no way it can survive. A roach will die in those conditions, let alone a reptile.

I think it is either someone making up a story, or someone that was the brunt of a mean practical joke.
