Man survives most venomous snake bite ever recorded in Florida
news4jax.com news4jax.com PUTNAM COUNTY, Fla. - A man in Putnam County told Channel 4 that he’s lucky to be alive after he was bitten by a diamondback rattlesnake. Clay Petruski said he was bit by the snake near his Florahome residence two weeks ago, and he was just released from the hospital this week. “I just happened to see one in the road," said Petruski. "I usually see five or six a year. I just prod them with a stick, and they go off into the woods.” “I knew I was in trouble, because I could taste it in my mouth," said Petruski. "It was this sulfur, metallic taste. It was real nasty.” Petruski (pictured below) was rushed to UF Health Gainesville. Petruski said his throat was so swollen doctors had to cut a hole in his Adam’s apple to allow him to breathe. It took more than 50 vials of antivenin to save his life. “When the specialist come back, they said it was the most venomous snake bite ever recorded in Florida, and I am the oldest survivor to ever survive such a snakebite," said Petruski. "You know when you’re in high school and you want a school record? This ain’t the one I wanted.” to read more: news4jax.com
