Afraid of snakes? Then do not, we repeat, do not, click play on the below video.
A BBC presenter called Steve Backshall hosts a show called Deadly 60, a programme aimed at younger viewers all about the world’s most lethal animals.
Every so often the BBC Earth YouTube channel posts a snippet from the show and yesterday they posted a clip from series three, where Backshall met a puff adder. Backshall has a super slo-mo camera crew with him so he gets the snake to attack a water balloon so we can all see just how fast, and powerful, a bite the adder has.
We think it is safe to say mission accomplished.
