https://www.independent.co.uk/news/world/americas/man-uranium-whiskey-snake-car-stolen-oklahoma-guthrie-a9002156.htmlMr Jennings told officers he was trying to create a super snake after the uranium was discovered, ABC reported.
When that happens, of course, we call in a company that deals with that specifically, and its taken safely into possession, Mr Gibbs said. The uranium is the wild card in that situation.
Bodycam footage from the arrest shows one officer spotting the snake in the backseat, before saying: That sucker is huge.
Timber rattlesnakes are highly venomous and their fangs are long enough to penetrate clothing and boots, according to the Ohio Public Library Information Network.

Super. Snake.
If this does not become a Coen Brothers movie I'm going to be very sad.

If Spiderman was bitten by a radioactive spider, imagine what a radioactive snake might do...

Holy crap I want to know the whole backstory here.
The idiots would be dead if bitten by a radioactive rattle snake.

If it hadn't been for those meddling kids (cops)!
We could have had a two headed 50' long rattlesnake! It would have been just like one of those Sci Fi channel "B" movies.

(33,544 posts)8. When I first saw this, I wondered if it was my long lost brother.
I haven't spoken with him in about 15 years, and don't know where (or who) he is anymore, but it's the kind of story in which I could well imagine him being.
The snakes and the guns, definitely. Uranium, I don't know. That's more my thing.
