Wow, that was interesting...and terrifying. It only took like five seconds for that to coagulate.

Maybe snake venom should be used in gel food recipes?

Puts a new spin on Lark's Tongue in Aspic! I'd like to find some microscope video of what actually happens to the individual cells. The venom triggers the lysosomes in blood cells and they essentially digest themselves.

I didn't see the video but I believe that species kills more people yearly then any other venomous snake.

If you get bitten, we won't have to remind you of anything. Ever.
