Leaf nosed snakes are not deadly to humans. Snakes would actually tell you that they are very concerned about what they bite; that's the last resort for defense. They can't risk injury and/or loss of precious venom. Please consult a professional herpetologist before you release harmful videos. Snakes are already so misunderstood, they don't need further vilification.

I wish you would put the stuff you can't pronounce on the screen so some of us can pronounce it or Google it or something. I love in Western Washington state, where there are no venomous snakes wear of the Cascade mountains. We mostly have garter snakes and racers here. I have lived in eastern Colorado where there are several species of rattlers, and glad I've never lived in the southeast with the copperheads and water moccasins, and the coral snakes in Florida. Florida and Australia are not anywhere I want to go. Too many deadly critters there.
