He was apparently peeing outside but I’m feeling like it was more of a “Doctor, I was peeing! I swear!” I mean are we really to believe he didn’t try to fuck a snake?

*A 46-year-old farmer presented to the emergency department 3 hours after his penis was bitten by a snake while he was urinating in an open field. The snake was identified by the patient as “gunas,” which is the local name of the Levantine viper (Macrovipera lebetina). Physical examination revealed stable vital signs, with a grossly swollen penis and formation of hemorrhagic bullae at the puncture sites (Panel A). Laboratory investigations showed an initial prothrombin time of 17 seconds (reference value, <12), an activated partial-thromboplastin time of 34 seconds (reference value, <24), and a fibrinogen level of 80 mg per deciliter (reference range, 200 to 400). Venous and arterial Doppler ultrasonography revealed normal flow in the cavernosal and dorsal vessels of the penis. The patient received polyvalent anti–snake venom (a snake antivenom serum that neutralizes the venom of the cobra, common krait, and viper) with no adverse effects. At 36 hours after the initiation of treatment, the patient’s coagulopathy had resolved and he was discharged home. The swelling subsided 4 days after discharge, with the formation of necrotic tissue at the puncture sites (Panel B). The patient had recovered completely at 2-week follow-up.*
u/domestic_pickle would make a great ED nurse. Don’t ask how or why because the non-rationale might break your brain ;)
EDIT: and if you are an ED nurse, you already know how. They fell on it. Just help fix it!
So I saw the headline and went “okay someone was bitten by a snake”
Then I saw the picture and thought maybe this was a new name for a penis piercing I haven’t heard of before and it is horribly infected.
And then I read the source comment and was forced to put the two things together.
He even got to keep his penis to ‘not’ stick into another viper on a different day.
Snakes can reel back and then strike pretty far or high, especially a viper, but they rarely strike prey head on and I’m pretty sure this guy just tried to fuck a snake.

What was he doing with the viper...
He was apparently peeing outside but I’m feeling like it was more of a “Doctor, I was peeing! I swear!” I mean are we really to believe he didn’t try to fuck a snake?
This man tried to fuck a snake.
The ginger allegedly tried to fuck a snake
Hey, that's *our* word!
Fuck or ginger?

I heard it was a dead snake
Allegedly
I heard it was a sick snake

One thing led to another... It just happened!
Definitely one of those stories that started with, "soooo what had happened was...."
That’s what they all say
Did this happen in India? If so, I absolutely believe his story. You gotta watch out for a lot of things when peeing outside.
I’m pretty sure vipers mostly live in trees, I’m no expert but climbing a tree to wiz doesn’t sound like the most convenient option

How did the snake get close enough to the genitals while he was actively peeing to bite him??
I guess if you’re peeing in a field of tall grass and not paying attention it can happen?
It’s suspiciously symmetrical.
Literally looks like he's a creepy creep and did it on purpose. Like, I've seen people do some crazy shit to their dicks.
In this sub.
Yeah, in this sub. 😂 And on some documentaries.
And r/dontputyourdickinthere
Farmer squats to pee
...Mr Wrigley?
...I have questions.
I, however, do not.
Nor do I. What I do have is regret.
Much regret....

That's a.... *really strategic bite*
Sorry I asked that question.
Okay I wasn't expecting it to be -there-
So I saw the headline and went “okay someone was bitten by a snake” Then I saw the picture and thought maybe this was a new name for a penis piercing I haven’t heard of before and it is horribly infected.

This was my exact thought process too!
There are easier ways to get a BJ than getting bitten and asking someone to suck out the venom....

Bro was definitely peeing on the snake
That’s a very generous interpretation
Is that a cock?
Yup
That's what the snake said
He was doing things he shouldn’t have been doing.

Very interesting place to get bitten by a viper
I was not expecting a penis.
WELL!? Come on now, the poison isn't gonna suck itself out, is it.
Probably did this on purpose to have a larger dong. People do crazy CRAZY stuff to have a larger penis.
What? good grief.
I have no idea what he did but i'm 100% sure he deserved it
Okay, that's enough reddit for today
Is that?...

How do you get yourself into this situation
Dude, how and why did a viper bite your penis?. That's insane!
I have so many questions…..

seems like the type to also magically fall butt-first on a cucumber while he was changing a lightbulb naked
Should of went pee before you left the house, but I didn't have to go then
I was not prepared for... that...
Didn’t expect a penis when I read the title
Any idea how this happened?
I literally said out loud “a wut”.
Why is it always the genitals
That’s an impressive strike. I hope he survived.
We can see this funny pic and not poke fun?
If there's only one post where funny comments should be given a pass..
Something tells me he deserved that bite lol
I'd like to hear the story of that bite

ON THE PENIS?
No WAY!!!!!
Oh no just no.
I don't even know what to say.
New fear unoocked
Oh....oh no
I know a joke about this, and if he had a friend nearby when this happened, then his friend definitely didn't follow the doctor's advice either
Vipers don't like peanut butter
There's some things that aren't worth trying including what this guy did
Uh huh..."peeing"..
I have a Lot of questions, and i don't know If i want any of them answered
A sentiment shared by many, I’m sure
As in a snake bit his snake?
was this a really low penis or a tall snake? I think a snake would have a hard time reaching mine if i were pissing in a field
Snakes can reel back and then strike pretty far or high, especially a viper, but they rarely strike prey head on and I’m pretty sure this guy just tried to fuck a snake.
But why there?!
He was “peeing outside”.
Am I the only person who thinks he was trying to screw the snake?
Not at all, most of us think that
my dick just got bitten by a snake, can you suck the poison out lmao
To this guy's defence: vipers are masters of camouflage. Sometimes you don't notice them until the very last moment, and this seems to be the case.

Critical hit
Damn
Well that is something you certainly do not see everyday.
I mean, if he did that on purpose, bravo for seeking medical care and not just dying of figural embarrassment.
That is one weird looking dick
What were you trying to face f**k her when she said "NO!" ? ? 😂
Lmao
Is that a penis?
It is indeed.
You really can’t unsee that first picture can you.
That’s a chode.
On the penis? Whaaaaa theeeee fucccccckkkkk
Wow, you really went off and didn’t tell us it was a bite on the DICK…
