As title suggests, I did this the other day aswell but the programme was a bit rubbish so I'm trying to make up for it now!

Austin is a leg-end!

 

[frankie_barber]

indeed he is!
thanks for the reminder

 

[hillzi]

missed it! Grr.

 

[allymac]

lol i'm watchig him wrestling a wild afrock :lol2:

also he found a HUGE gaboon viper and i couldn't see it :gasp:

 

[markhill]

I've seen loads of Austin Steven programms but dont think I've ever seen this one.

Had to Sky+ it though cos was watching 24: victory:

 

[shaun348]

he nearly got a free nipple piercing :whistling2:

 

[Pincers n Paws]

Dont like the guy, his shows are too dramatic, slow motion set pieces of him diving into action, bigging up how much danger he is in blah blah blah......still watched it though!!:2thumb:

 

[Whosthedaddy]

Caught the last half an hour, quite an angry afrock!

Big respects to Austin. He's a legendary bloke.

 

[jeni-arthurmoe]

didnt see it ..

is there a iplayer type thing?

 

[PDR]

What I don’t understand is why he puts so much effort into getting a still photograph when we can see the snake (or other creature) in TV quality footage :yeahright:

There's only one thing that annoys me...When he is dealing with venomous snakes, he trys his utmost to P*** the snake off to get a photograph.

 

[wingsy]

lucky he's still around for all the crazy stuff he does,
He just nearly had his guts ripped open by that python,That would of made an interesting photo for his collection.LOL

 

[shaun348]

He's to dramatic, was routing for the Af rock to bite him :Na_Na_Na_Na:

He's even luckier than that.

He's been bitten by an (African species, not sure which) Cobra and a Gaboon Viper

Snouted Cobra.

It wasn't even a full bite. It was a scratch, it wasn't a full injection.

Gaboon Viper eh? I knew he was tagged by a Horned adder, not a Gab though....hmmmm

Yeah, the Cobra scratched his finger and the Gabby was apperantly from his days in the African Army

 

[markhill]

Ok, I just checked and it seems it was a Puff Adder and not a Gabby, my bad:blush:
