I would absolutely love a job hunting those Burmese python in the Everglades. Unless that swamp is infested with spiders then I'd have to pass.

As a starving actor ha ha on a more serious note I was surprised they weren't using tongs also , and yes I'm of the mind set of a good snake is a dead one unless a live one is worth more money ?

Snake tongs would take the drama out of the show.
I would be shooting them.

watched about 5 mins of it.
he caught a 9ft snake (when he held up by the head the tail didnt touch the ground) that weighed 175lbs, put it in a sack and tossed it over his shoulder with one hand... he must be awful strong.
changed the channel

Then they used a heat seeking drone to find all these snakes at night. I thought snakes were cold blooded. Then I think they found 6 of them In one small area. Seemed a bit staged to me.
