Brady Barr might have a PhD, but that doesn't mean he didn't sell his soul when he decided to throw in with all the other SteveIrwinesque animal-abusers-for-profit (dis)gracing the "nature" channels these days. Barr is a first class idiot and yes, a total pansy. No serious researcher grabs wild pythons in caves. The only people who do that are greedy showmen posing for fake TV shows. And if you do that and then squeal like a little girl when you bet bitten, then you're revealing your true color: pink.
I've been bitten by a python twice that size (which is, far from being a badge of honor, really a negative mark on my record as a snake keeper and a reminder that one careless moment of stupidity while feeding a giant snake can be disastrous), but I didn't scream like a baby, as this douchelord Barr did. I sat on the snake so it couldn't constrict me with all of its force, waited patiently for 5 minutes for the snake to figure out I was not worth the effort and let go, then wrapped my hand in a couple of bath towels to soak up the blood and calmly took myself to the hospital. Of course, I wasn't being paid to act like damned fool.
Barr is the douchiest of douches, taking credit he doesn't deserve, bossing the "help" around like slaves, hamming it up for the cameras while needlessly harrassing animals. He belongs in a circus where such buffoon behavior is expected. Steve Irwin finally got what he asked for. I'm looking forward to the day "Dr." Barr gets his just reward. He's stupid AND he treats animals like playthings, so it's only a matter of time.
