Default stupid program

ok so im watching this program where a load of kids have got to do certain challenges and one of the kids has got to sabotage the task.

anyways theres this one task wheres theres a load of holes and the kids has got to stick there hands in without getting bitten by the snake anyways at the beggining it shows you the snake (albino burm) going in and out of the holes and going into strike posture and they even reffer to it as a "children eating python" its programms like this that the hobby could do without and it really does my head in.

also loads of kids will be watching this programm as it is very popular apparently

Yeh i saw this and took it with a pinch of salt......also the snake is not there at all its filmed in the setting when the kids arent there and then the footage is shown to the kids to make it look like the snake is there....cute snake but i can see that this will only add to some peoples fear of snakes but that is what has always been done on T.V. Same with spiders etc.......it wont end but people need to be educated properly ........I can see on one part it makes snakes exciting to kids too.......an overall opinion.....but i just wanted to say I know which show you mean......
