A man in the Philippines known as the "Cobra King" had a reputation for treating himself after getting a snake bite. Once, when he was removing a cobra from a storage box the snake bit him on the hand. It's reported that he bit the snake's head off, drank its blood, and died minutes later. His failure to seek treatment for the bite ultimately led to his demise.
