The question about the snake is for an American audience. From what I've been told the snake venom (at least Oz snake venom) moves through your lymphatic system, not your arteries so is propelled by muscle movement, not blood flow. Compression bandages starting from above the wound to below the wound with a splint to immobilise. Stay still and you'll have a chance. start moving around after a bite with no pressure on the wound and you'll be dead if it was one of the nasties. cheers, Chris Maunder

Chris it's true, May be we need to change that question with the following:
What must you do when you are front to an excited kangaroo? :-D

I got 10 out of 17. I'm alive but badly injured or mamed for life. My ideal answers: 1. I'd taunt it till it jumped up for my throat, then snap it's two front legs out and crush it. 2. I'd stick my hand quickly and firmly as far up the critters arse as I could, and then I would start fisting. If that doens't get it to run away pronto, nothing will. 3. I'd use my finger nails to channel up through the roof of it's mouth and then remove the brain. 4. I'd flash at it and watch it flee the area so fast that it would de-skin itself. 5. I'd make sure the snakes died a horrible and painful death too, by inserting it into my rectum. The added advantage is that I get to die with a smile on my face. 6. I'd tell them I'm a pyscopathic maniac, just before telling them I spent the night with their mother. Hopefully the gun shot would alert the police. 7. I'd probably hide under a table and start crying. 8. I'd say "is that a gun or are you just pleased to see me?" 9. Say "oh fuck" 10. Make the most of my last few moment with a tube of KY... 11. Turn around and charge at it - hopefully it will see me and change course to avoid getting hurt. 12. If I run out of water I will crack open the coke. 13. I'd look for the nearest Starbucks. 14. I'd get back in the car and find another place to camp. 15. I'd switch airlines fast. 16. I'd starting writing my complaint to the aviation authority. 17. Grab the bastard that tripped me by the ankles and start a mexican wave.

Paul Watson wrote: And the closest an American will get to the wild with those kind of dangers is from behind their Cannon zoom lens in their SUV on the highway through Oregon*! But, it's better to be prepared. Also, I have seen tornadoes and have been around plenty of snakes. So, I found it useful. And, if it focused on African or Australian concerns, I still wouldn't find it any less useful. Jeremy Falcon Imputek "Great spirits have always found violent opposition from mediocrities.

12 of 17. The shark would have got me for sure. I disagree with what to do when driving into the path of a tornado. If possible you should take a road which allows you to move at a right angle to the path of the tornado. Tornadoes can change direction but they usually hold to a generally constant path. If you can safely turn around and outrun the tornado that is probably also a better option. If you just lie down in a ditch, and if the tornado is big enough, there is a good chance you will be sucked out of the ditch and/or crushed by something thrown at you by the twister - such as the perfectly good car you just got out of.

i agree with you, stan,, though the overpass option is pretty good, i grew up in Iowa, the town of Ames lay in a glacial depression in the ground, so tornados would skirt around the town,, we would sit on the porch and watch the funnel clouds come down and rise back up i got a 12, the shark woulda had me -John

I'm from Oklahoma, so I've dodged a twister or two in my life. :omg: I disagree with you about the overpass. The winds of the tornado will actually accelerate as they are channeled through the overpass, so you would be exposing yourself to greater danger from being hit by high velocity debris "Humans: The final chapter in the evolution of rats"
