This is very scary and I must say yucky. How does he take his bath without causing himself some grievous harm? Eating while seated next to the man must be an exercise in politeness for the imagination will convince that some things are surely nesting in those talons (nails).
Tourist attraction or not, the”investment” is unhygienic and a turn-off as far as I am concerned . Eiiiiissssshh !!!

IT DOESN’T look good on the eyes. I remember that mentor of his, whose story was also shared here. I can’t imagine walking about with those snakes clipped to my fingers. That is terrible! But that is his business. Good luck to him!
WHAT PEOPLE DO that their names may enter an ordinary book made by human hands! This guy is prepared to put up with the whole inconvinience and possible injury to himself. If God’s own Book of Life causes this same degree of concern in people, the world would have been a far better place.

Just wondering how it would have look like if man has no access to hair and nail clippers, no Razor blade nothing to cut your hair or nails right from the time of your birth…
By the time you get to the age of just 10, you would have been looking like an abandoned Baboon in the thickest Forest in existence.
THINGS CAN ONLY GET BETTER,
Still strolling…
