http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Snake_handlingSnake Handlers. Studied these guys in college. They are completely insane, not only for the fact that they willingly handle poisonous snakes, but drink poisoned water too. They cite scripture for it, which is the funny part, since other parts of scripture say DO NOT TEST GOD. (Matthew 4:7)
Incidentally, George Hensley, the founder of modern snake handling in the Appalachian Mountains, died from snakebite in 1955. Dumb ass.
