LAS VEGAS – JANUARY 17: A rattlesnake coils up in a glass box filled with 50 deadly snakes outside O’Sheas Casino on the Las Vegas Strip January 17, 2010 in Las Vegas, Nevada. Animal adventurer Donald Schultz will spend 10 days and nights in the 16-foot by 20-foot glass enclosure with various snakes including vipers, pythons, cobras and rattlesnakes. Five new snakes will be added to the box each day until the count reaches 100. The event is being filmed for “Venom in Vegas,” a two-hour special edition of Animal Planet’s new series, “Wild Recon” that will air on February 9, 2010. During the stunt, Schultz will conduct tests and extract venom from the reptiles that will be used for research. A team of experts will stand by in case anything goes wrong.

A real estate agent can't leave an open house in Scottsdale, Arizona on Saturday because a rattlesnake is blocking his exit.  It's in the middle of the porch and looks ready to strike.  Its rattler gets louder when the guy talks or changes positions.

He tosses a couple of rugs at it, but it won't budge.  It's a stalemate that lasts through the entire video.  At the very end he writes that he used a broom to move the snake a couple of feet, but it still wouldn't leave . . . so he called animal control.
