Most fatal bites are attributed to the eastern and western diamondback rattlesnake. Copperheads account for more cases of venomous snake bite than any other North American species; however, their venom is the least toxic, so their bite is seldom fatal. Many snake experts claim that the bite from a cottonmouth (aka water moccasin) is one of the most painful snake bites to endure. During my film work with snake expert Albert Killian, who has been bitten over sixty times, I had a chance to interview Albert in the hospital chortle after he was bitten by a cottonmouth. This interview with snake expert Albert Killian was filmed by Heiko Kiera in South Florida in 2009.
