wait... so you saw a snake and blacked out and somehow floated down the trail for 30 yards? why didn't you just step back from where the snake struck out and keep walking? am I missing something?

Kinda dense when it comes to humor are we? After completing a NBA worthy vertical jump I ran my ass down that trail at a rate that would have made Usain Bolt jealous. Guess I'll put you in the "more of a bad ass as me" category if you can calmly step back and go on like nothing happened when an unexpected rattlesnake ends up right under your foot.

I know that they are there, but I've never seen one an know less than a handful of people that have

I won't try to claim to be any kind of a bad ass but the fact is, for me at least, things when/where you don't expect them are unsettling. I don't care if it's a rattlesnake on a trail, a rat in a feed bag, or an ex-girlfriend when you're on a date with the new girl.

Everything has it's place and when it's unexpected it's no fun.

I don't have the laugh/cry, but this is well done. Well. Done.

So what'd you do with the second one? You said you were on a narrow part of the trail and heard the rattle 10 yards ahead right? Did you just sneak right by it and say excuse me?

I'm wearing him as a belt right now.

Or after he made himself known, he moved off and I gave him a wide birth. It's much easier to be cool about things when he aren't under your damn foot

Don't forget AC does Crossfit. I'm sure he's done double unders with 7 ft. rattlers...
