Doesn't get much better than this, bitten on the knob by a brown snake. F*ck my country is awesome.

A ROADSIDE toilet stop ended in pain, embarrassment and almost death for a tourist when a highly venomous snake bit the end of his penis.

The deadly brown snake slithered between his legs and lunged at his manhood as he crouched on a roadside near Laura, 300km northwest of Cairns, about a month ago.

Would you have sucked out the poison for ya mate?

I'm sure VB would have. Considering the urgency of the situation he would be smart to charge double the normal rate.

Try as I might - I simply cannot find a political angle to this story.

VB (on phone to the doctor)- Me mate got bitten on the knob by a brown snake, what do I do?
Doc- ya have to suck it out or he's gonna die.
Mate- What did the doc say?
VB- Doctor said you're gonna die

Snake's middle name was Hussein.

I'm guessing an Eastern Brown. Brown snake is a bit of a catch all phrase in Australia meaning "not really sure what it was and wasn't hanging around to find out after it bit me on the cock"
If it was a King Brown he'd have to have been drunk, not easy to miss, they're big bastards.

Perhaps it was simply a matter of scale.
