Man critically ill after three bites from snake
Which, on the face of it, isn't comedy. Except when you consider the facts:
- the UK has one native venomous snake, the adder
- the last death was a 5yo in 1975, previous to that there had been 14 deaths in 100 years
The gentleman in question was bitten "...by an adder that he had picked up." (italics mine). The Darwin Awards wait with baited breath...
