[QUOTE="Chuckie, post: 772532, member: 637"] We always hear of stories of how people died at the hands...er...mouths of water moccosins. People skiing and falling into a bed of them. One boy was going fishing and dug up worms, and they were snakes. They bit him and he died. Then I love to read the Foxfire book on the snakelore. Of course these stories are coming from people in their 90's from in the mountians in the South, where I am from. But they have stories they believe. They have the Hoop snakes that they have a stinger in their tail. They will roll up in a hoop and come rolling toward ya', and if they hit you with that stinger you will die, or if it hits anything else, it will die too. One morning this hoop snake came rolling toward a man, and he jumped behind a honey locust tree, and the snake hit the tree. He said that the big old honey locust was wilted before twelve o'clock! Joint snakes. If you hit a joint snake, he will break up into pieces as long as your finger. Just like you cut him up. And if you leave him there till the next morning, it will be a snake again. Or you can hit one, turn your back to him, and turn around, you can see the head moving backwards and hunting every piece, going back together. They had coachwhip snakes that would wrap around you and then whip you with their platted tails. It would make animals run themselves to death, whipping them. It said they knew of an old fat boy that got into a fight with one that died. They said when they found him, the snake had whiped him till his hide was split all over. :lol2: :lol2: Those people were truly scared of snakes!!!! I can't remember where I saw this documentary video, but it was of the Church where they handle the rattle snakes. I wonder if they would like to try some water moccosins? Chuckie [/QUOTE]
