Initially I thought "play stupid games win stupid prizes" but sometimes farm animals take people's lives too, guy looks a little naive possibly but it could have just been an accident he wasn't at fault for

I saw one dude who handles rattlesnakes with bare hands I think since he raised them since they were young... you can use a tool to get their head and then handle with bare hands I think, but he wasn't doing that. That kind of thing just seems like unnecessary danger to me

Guy probably should have had a friend to "spot" him, some safety measures could have saved his life. I don't think people should live a bubble though so again I'd need more info to know what happened here
