Anons skills always tested.
He released the snake stretched out…natural stance for the snake in that situation is to coil and prepare to strike.
>However reverse or not, the rattler can't lunge when it's stretched out.

Up is down
Down is up in that video
Looks like corrosion on the metal (surrounding metal looks clean / painted … could have been hit with liquid nitrogen / frozen then fractured. Looks like a pretty clean fracture line.
Interesting….
