I think my biggest accomplishment has been surviving five near death or preceived near death encounters while bow hunting, The most recent was having a nine foot black mamba coiled up a mere 12inches fromeither of mylegs. I had just missed a 15 yard shot on a gembok while spot and stalk hunting. My focus was on the fast approaching bull. I never saw the snake and I straddled it when I came to full draw. I was hunting solo-alone with a radio. God only knows how much time I would have had. I'm lucky to be alive!
Holy mother ofa black mamba momoment bat man!!! (Or should I say cat man; nine lives and you have used up five of them). One of the most deadly, foul tempered, fastest snakes on the planet, and it is coiled between your legs??!!! A "Steve Irwin" moment for sure!
Goodness, if I had been in your shoes that serpent would have been swimming in sewage, because I would have soiled myself right then and there.
How did you get out of that predicament?
