Rama Mahto, 65, was reportedly drunk out- side his home in the village of Madhodeh, India, on Aug. 8, when a baby snake bit him on the leg, Newsweek reported. Contrary to com- mon advice in the wake of a snake bite, Mahto captured the little snake and started chewing on it in revenge, during which his family said he was “bitten more than 10 times” on the face.
Drunkard Is Hiss-tory After Bout With Snake

More Snakes
Xi Yan of Jurong West in Singapore called animal wel- fare group ACRES on July 28 because of what she believed was a snake hissing in a cup- board near her bed. She sent a recording of the noise, and ACRES concluded it was probably a black spitting co- bra, reported Coconuts Singa- pore. The rescue team, armed with protective eyewear and snake grabbers, methodical- ly searched her bedroom, but what they came up with was much less threatening: It was a malfunctioning Oral-B elec- tric toothbrush buzzing away.
“The problem started be- cause water got into my elec- trical toothbrush and affected the mechanism,” Xi said. “I should really buy a new one. I don’t want to go through this again.”
Miss Squirrel, Hit House
On July 15, a 19-year-old driver from Hingham, Mas- sachusetts, swerved to avoid hitting a squirrel in the road and ended up in the living room of a historical home built by Abraham Lincoln’s great-grandfather in 1650. The Boston Globe report- ed that the unnamed driver “drove off the right side of the road, over the sidewalk and
into the front of the house” around 6:30 a.m., where residents were still sleeping upstairs.
His family urged him to seek medical help at the hos- pital, but he decided to go to bed — and never woke up. Mahto had told his family he didn’t think the snake was venomous due to its age.
