Man reveals how snake bit his privates

An Australian who was bitten on his privates by a deadly snake has told how he used a cold rum can to soothe the pain.

Daryl Zutt even rang his mum to say a final goodbye as he thought he was going to die, reports The Sun.

"I thought I was gone," he said. "I thought: "Maybe, this is it. Maybe, I'm gonna cark it."

Mr Zutt''s snake encounter came after he stopped for a roadside toilet stop in remote far north Queensland.

He added: "I squatted down. I reckon I must've nearly sat on his head. As soon as I felt it, I yelled. It really hurt.

"When it happened, I knew in the back of my mind it was a snake. I seen him coming out from between my legs."

He tried to remain calm as he inspected the damage: "He got me about halfway down," he said. "I saw fang marks and a bit of blood come out."

Mr Zutt's friend drove him to a medical centre before he was moved to a hospital for further tests which showed he was not envenomated.

What do you say when you are preparing to toast your demise?
Your life?

Um, If you don't have rum, will vodka do? Beer?

"Hi mom, I'm gonna die! I just got bit by a snake!"

"What happened? Where did it bite you?"
