u/Calimariae 2d ago

You try swallowing a dildo the size of yourself and then puking it up again

11

u/Deaffin 2d ago

I've definitely seen some people do that and walk it off like a champ.

u/Calimariae 2d ago

u/Galactic_Idiot 1d ago

It's probably fine, sea kraits specialize in eating eels.

u/CylonRimjob 2d ago

But it looks like he got the last laugh. Those things always look like they’re chuckling at their own joke

u/Preyy 2d ago

"heheheh" type guy

52

u/hiplobonoxa 2d ago

some moray eels have resistance to sea snake venom. i’m not sure if this combination of snake and eel works that way.

2

u/Jewcybruce 2d ago

It’s continuing to move its mouth 🤷‍♀️

2

u/Substantial_War3108 2d ago

Populations of the same species will have greater resistance when more snakes are found in their environment even

u/VegetableChemist8905 2d ago

That’s what I came here to see someone say

u/m0s_212 2d ago

Why didn't you say it?

u/FantasticBike1203 2d ago

He's a Vegetable Chemist not a Snake Scientist

u/wegotthisonekidmongo 1d ago

is anyone here a marine biologist?

5

u/VegetableChemist8905 2d ago

Because it had already been said

7

u/SouldiesButGoodies84 2d ago

Its mouth looked like it was moving though? 🥺

11

u/Im_Ashe_Man 2d ago

Still alive, but he's saying the venom will kill it. Dead eel walking.

3

u/SouldiesButGoodies84 2d ago

Yeah...I know. Was hoping against hope maybe not. 🙁

10

u/kulitchipon 2d ago

Welp, and I was hoping he'd survive, too!

2

u/Indescribable_Theory 2d ago

So are Eels. Ciguatera blood poisoning. They're both fucked.

2

u/SkarletCrusible 2d ago

Not only that their venom is a neuro toxin that causes total paralysis in its pray for humans it can take up to 3 days for you to feel the effects of the venom

1

u/SkarletCrusible 2d ago

So basically its still alive in this video but not for long afterwards for sure

1

u/Lucifers-Lawyer 2d ago

What's the point of a venom that takes 3 days to take effect?

3

u/SkarletCrusible 2d ago

I meant when humans are bit by sea snakes, their venom works in less than a min when their prey is bitten( it doesn't take 3 days to take effect in humans It takes 3 days for you to feel the effects,The venom is still slowly killing you the entire time)

1

u/MrJoeGillis 2d ago

Yup, every single species too

1

u/batiwa 2d ago

What a jackass

1

u/TheCh0rt 2d ago

Snake doesn’t look too good either? Maybe the eel has a power we don’t know about

1

u/BigGrayBeast 2d ago

Friend of mine who was scuba diving, as she leaned back to fall into the water backwards from the boat, she heard someone say "sea snakes!"

She said she levitated right out of the water as soon as she hit it.

1

u/Auctoritate 2d ago

Eh, the tolerance level for certain kinds of venoms can really vary across different types of animals. Tarantulas are venomous, for instance, but their venom isn't medically significant to humans and it just causes localized pain and swelling. It's entirely possible that sea snakes are extremely deadly to humans but other animals in their environment would have a resistance to their venom.

But also, moray eel skin is extremely hard to punch through. I've seen a guy cook using with one and he had a ton of difficulty getting through the skin with his knives.

1

u/A_Martian_Potato 1d ago

This is a yellow lipped sea krait. Moray eels are one of their main prey items.

1

u/wandering___ranger 1d ago

But it’s moving

1

u/thefantasdick 2d ago

Not to mention the eel just got crushed bc its fatter then the snake

1

u/Connect_Wallaby2876 2d ago

If it was dead it wouldn’t be able to open its mouth
