Scary Australian Snakes | Close Encounters With Deadly Australian Snakes 

Photographing snakes has it's risks and dangers. So do all motorsports, bungee jumping, parachuting, snowboarding, bushwalking, getting tattooed, playing football, cricket etc.... Car accidents kill and injur more of us than all of of our dangerous hobies comnined.

I always thought the Red Belly Blacks & other snakes were mortal enemies. Interesting to see them sharing the same hiding place. Thanks for the Vid.

Nothing like a close encounter with a brown to put your spidey sensors on high alert. And that was damn close, it was huge too.

Good stuff Robbie

Love ya vids mate keep it up

Awesome video Robbie love the good old black snake , do you not get many tigers or copperheads over there in Wangaratta? And if you do get accidentally bitten at least it would make for a thrilling viral video. lol you might even make it on the news

Hey Robbie, great video mate! I am about to start building in the estate near the Winton wetlands, and can’t wait to have this on my doorstep! Keep up the great work! 🍺

Nice vid!! A couple of close calls there though. Love snakes 😁🐍

Subbed love a genuine humble channel

A couple of summers ago I lived with a Tiger Snake in the bush in Tassie for 2 months. He was a fine specimen I named him Harrold. I would regularly find him sunning himself on the door mat outside my camper trailer. I just had to remember to always check the mat before I stepped outside but he was no problem at all we got on great!

Absolutely loved this vid Robbie! Sorry I was late getting to it mate.

Hi Robbie nice vid, heaps of snakes. Do you carry appropriate first aid stuff when you go snake searching or have a plan in pace for if you ever get accidentally get bitten

Thanks Robbie, I've had many Snake encounters of both kinds in Life. 👍

I don't know how you didn't get tagged by that eastern brown! Don't bother with a lotto ticket any time soon, you just spent several year's worth of luck right there. Stay safe Robbie

Hey Robbie, what are your thoughts on why the Eastern Brown snake wasn't overly aggressive when you came so close to him? I'm thinking he maybe wasn't warmed up enough yet? I love snakes but they scare the #### out if me. Cheers, Dan.

love the vids

Wow, i know that heart starter feeling with the brown good video did you have some gator on to protect. It might be an idea to get some if you're going to do more videos like that

Big black snakey wakey!

Gday mate, that Eastern Brown brought back memories 1986 one of the buggers dry bit me on my left calf muscle.

Great video!

fascinating part of the World

Robbie I remember going rabbiting with ferrets and we lost a few to snakebite in the warrens.

Awesome Robbie. What do you reckon they eat, rabbits and mice? Doesn’t look like much water or frogs nearby.

Amazing how fast those bitey worms can move! I have two pet pythons and even those guys can go light speed plus 10 when they want to :)

That was amazing!! It also did point out i need to be more careful collecting firewood

💛...they're such bootiful animals...

Hey Robbie. What a wonderful video! Loved it. To answer the question you posed during this video, NO, I would never walk around in the bush anywhere in Australia wearing thongs! Like you, I love snakes. Thankyou so much for making this. Have a good day mate. Cheers 🍻

Hey rob, I don’t have long tonight so I’ll have to watch Tomorrow! I’m sure it’ll be awesome like the rest of your videos! We saw an ocean snack yesterday! It was really cool! But they’re really poisonous so we made sure to keep our distance…. I love snakes and always have! They’re such cool creatures! Me and me mates used to put the “fake red belly black snake” in the road and see peoples reactions 😂😂 we just used to put it into the middle of the road and many people would purposely run over it or make sure to go back… someone even stole it off uss😂😂😂😂 Keep up,the good work! Bro!

That was way too close for comfort, Robbie. 😬 Guardian angel kind of stuff....

I saw the brown snake in proximity to the black snakes. Do they coexist commonly or was that an unusual occurrence.

Great snakeathon Robbie! Who was the monster who turned up? Made "The Hulk" sound like a wuss!

You'd think all those snakes would be in an area where there's more vegetation trees shrubs etc. All that area would have had way more trees etc at the time Captain Cook arrived here.

Hi Robbie you ware snake gaiters? Might be a good idea for the ones you don't see.

That 2nd RBB looked like he was beckoning you with his tongue to come closer as if saying "yea buddy... come a bit closer, and see what I do"... haha.. lol, and wow.. really dont know how you didnt see that brownie... HE was the first one I saw........be bloody careful.........hope you are wearing gaiters,,,,,,

Snake no 1 was massive!! Thankfully here in the UK we only have the adder that has poison. Keep safe hun.

That was cool some real nice snakes 👍👍👍👍👍 what makes all the holes they’re living in?

My god man. Can a snake bite through gum boots or above the gum boot. THANKS.

hey mate, would you be able to share this location, possibly just a nearby road or car park or picnic area? i’d love to go herping throughout the wetlands

I live in northern Victoria and I don't like watching snakes on TV, they creep me out. When I see them I don't feel scared at all, I just walk around them keeping my distance. I saw this huge redbelly black on the spillway bank of my fathers lake at kinglake and it was so shiny, long and healthy. Thank God I've never seen a eastern brown. My daughter got bitten by either a black or brown snake and she shows me her ankle the next morning, saying she's be bitten by a insect or something as it was itchy. I saw the 2 little red dots and said, you've been bitten by a snake. She was lucky not to have been invenimated

Bloody hell. More snakes than Allens.

I'm originally from the grampians we mainly saw tiger snakes but occasionally the odd black snake and brown snake

Now that's some beautiful snakes there just don't you love them a lot

You are NUCKING FUTTS Robert

Are rabbits still a big issue? If you get the chance to get you a couple they are good meat but very little fat.

Hi Robbie, that was Snake Central. Pretty soon you'll be doing Wangaratta guided snake tours. Please stay away from that area during the snake breeding season, and I'm bloody serious.

Mind you this is winter....😂 Also to anyone watching this, don't go looking for snakes like Robbie! He knows what he's doing and he understands the risk and look what happened momentary lapse in judgement and almost stood on a brown

Question please why do snakes have a fork tounge please

16:20 so many snake tracks in the sand there it’s crazy.

lucky that brown snake was cold or it might have been a very different story mate, get yourself some gaiters and thick boots if you go out again.

Nice Robbie if people can’t see that they aren’t out to kill you dead set nothing will change there mine bro was a bit pissed you near stepped on him but honestly I would be pissed if someone near steps on me to cheers mate loved it lots of snakes for winter that’s for sure

How are you finding so many!? 😂 It can take me weeks to find 1 red belly in the winter, guess that's the difference between suburban and rural bush

A bat flatrry 😂😂😂

very scary when you don't see the snakes especially when you nearly step on them.

Love red bellied black snakes I keep two of them

Then a big black snake came!

That brown snake is gonner... Living amongst a bunch of snake eaters. Another big group of snakes, how cool though, yep if you don't see the snake first, they definitely still get the heart racing... Hahahaha no i would not wear thongs there, i love snakes but that's clearly a stupid idea. 😅 The hairy panic grass was interesting. After how many you saw on the day, no one would disbelieve number 21 but 22 no way 😅😅 I have never seen so many snakes in one walk, that's insane... Some big healthy snakes too. Good to see the wild rabbit population, would be in check around there... Number 27 was just as scared as you, a little upset too 😅 Almost 30 snakes in a day, what an awesome day of herping, just stay safe out there mate and PLEASE GO TO SPEC SAVERS 😅😂

Careful out there lol 🐍

Can you please start carrying anti-venom please

4:41 That was an awful large number of snakes very close together Robbie, probably a good thing that the brown was a little lethargic at this time of year. Don't make the news! That was also an awfully large number of snakes in just one short walk - gives me the ssssshivers

Hi Robbie I nearly stepped on a red belly black snake a couple of days ago Can we meet up somewhere and go fishing I live in Wangaratta vic

the sun gets them out mate stay safe

I want to move countries now lol

Not only did you almost step on a brown snake but you almost had brown trousers also.

Not for me thanks Robbie, i don’t mind snakes and I’d never hurt one. But the times I’ve come across them has mostly been when I’m heading for a fish somewhere. I do what you did and jump and scream. But when i get my breath back I’m ok. The worst experience i ever had was clearing a block of land behind where I used to work in Dubbo, we’d only just started and every bush we cut out seemed to house an enormous Brown Snake! Suffice to say that we told the boss to clear his own block of land. 🤣😂 i never went back onto that block again. 😅

I seen either a tiger snake or a baby python in the water when i was fishing it went under the water when it seen me

The very reason I don’t go near that place

A few farmers have told me they don’t mind the backs because they eat the browns and keep them away. Maybe an old wife’s tale hey👍

Unfortunately 46 % of Australia is tropical so they don’t hibernate in this climate

What’s the difference between a politician and a snake laying ⚰ in the middle of the road? There are skid marks in front of the snake.

I hope you’re carrying a snake bite first aid kit at a minimum mate, if not your EPirb bit of kit as well. You know what they say about the bull and the horns. Continue to play, but play smart mate.

Snake 1 red belly black?

The best thing about Aussie snakes is they are predictable. If you stay clear of them and especially NEVER get between the snake and its nearest cover/hiding spot, then they'll go about their day while you can go about yours. Like that opening black snake, they'll warn you when you've gotten too close.

PS. THEY ARE TOP RAT TRAPS.🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉🎉.😂

Your Steve Irwin 2.0

This video shows snakes aren’t out to bite you, most of them take off.

You are way betterera than David Atenbourgh

I'm surprised that poor Brown snake managed to live that long, I guess once he got big enough the Black snakes won't eat him- they can be a bit territorial like that or maybe its an old rural tale that the Black snakes will keep your yard clear of wandering Browns. Surprised no Goannas about with all that lunch on the ground but they prefer warmer weather too I suppose. Come late spring and summer its a whole different ball game out there for our reptiles

You are mad! 😂😂😂

I've never had a "Bat Flattery" but i have had a "Flat Battery" 😂😂😂, Wonder how many other people noticed, then again i wonder if u noticed

Shit mate one could be on a 600cc bike there and still take a hit .😂

Nope Ropes.

😂😂🎉

Have you got rocks in your head?????

Crap Robbie 1 day you will get un stuck

Stop getting so excited Robbie!!! You need to be more careful bloke, and maybe carry antivemon. And ffs don't go by yourself. We all love you mate, we don't need any shit news please. Cool video though

This has got to be one of the most natural videos, but when it goes 'Merch', i'm out, sry mate, we need to make a buck, but we also need to budget. 👍

Hey you🫵🏻

Not the way to teach people to look for snakes you do not run after a moving snake as you learnt you didn't look carefully l like you streaming dam fishing knowledge but you know nothing about looking for snakes.l think you need to tell your viewers what you shouldn't do l am a 74 year old fisherman who has seen many snakes think about it Robbie. Regards Peter J

5:12 alright Robbie we’re done. You’re obviously keen on following in Steve Irwin’s footsteps. Leave the sneks alone, nobody’s gona feel sorry for ya if you 🍽️💩

I would have needed a change of underwear 🩲 lol . Your unreal. Ps did you jump?? Haaa . See you tomorrow 👍
