5 Mambas in 1 day: Snake catcher, Nick Evans, breaks personal record and risks life and limb

Previously, Briefly News reported that Nick Evans has had a busy day in which he broke his personal best for catching snakes in a single day. He bagged five black mambas in one day.

The first one was stuck under a wendy house and was difficult to get out, bearing in mind this is a deadly reptile and the smallest mistake could be fatal. The second snake catching request came while he was busy trying to wrestle the mamba out from under the wendy house. Fortunately, it was literally across the road.

This snake was in a bathroom, when he opened the bathroom door he was immediately confronted by the snake. He was quite shocked that there were two snakes so close together. However, his day was about to get a lot busier. The third black mamba was in a tree and was very difficult and dangerous to get to.
