That's probably it.

I had my sound turned up too high, and 1:52 was unpleasant.
I had my sound up as well and whenever they did closeups of the snakes I actually yelled out loud and my dogs gave me "wtf is wrong with you" stares

I can't think of many things more terrifying than this.

How was he able to get that close to the snakes with his gopro in the first place?
I'm guessing either a drone or an insanely long selfie stick

Good spot to grab some rattlers for Rattlesnake Roundup in Sweetwater, TX.

Rattlesnake in the sleeping bag.
Remember, kids, the desert is cold and snakes think your nice warm cocoon is awesome.
Enjoy your camping trip!

If it were spiders it would be a different story. Snakes don't really bother me too much.

This shite happened to me one time at a lake. I was trying to find my way around the lake and walked up a small mound. On the other side of the mound was a snake pit of rattlesnakes. Those bastards started to rattle and stared at me. I took a quick pic and "nope"d my way out of there.
Me and a friends of mine were out checking crawfish ponds and one of the fields was cottonmouth mating central. We went and got our shotguns and a case of dove shells that we had left over. We stopped counting after we had killed 200+ cottonmouths.

The strikes made me jump, even when I was anticipating them. Eff those things.

This is why I don't go swimming in lakes. I have heard tales about people swimming in lakes that swim into a cottonmouth breeding area and get bit so many times they swell up like the blueberry girl in Willy Wonka and die. Even if those stories are true, I wouldn't want to risk it. No thanks
One day I was moving stuff behind a shed and there was a moc. I got a machete and cut its head off. I hate snakes.

There was a mini-series in the 80's (I think it was Lonesome Dove) that this happened in. I've been scared shitless of moccasins ever since.

Friend from my hometown in WI owns a pest removal business here in AZ and caught this roaming around in some woman's front yard last Spring. He's holding it out in front of him on 4' long snake tongs so it looks larger than it is but still measured at 6'5", he said it's the second largest he's ever caught. Check out the size of the rattle on that thing.

We killed a couple rattlesnakes at the camp a few weeks ago. I killed the first one by running it over with my truck. I must have backed over him 10-12 times before I even thought about getting out of the truck. I parked on top of him to make sure when I finally did get out to see if he was still alive.
