A 39-year-old Dutch salesman got bored of his newspaper selling job and took up snake handling full time.

Romilly van den Bergh, known as Ro, says snakes have been his passion for years and now has more than 100 snakes, including some of the world’s most venomous ones like King Cobra and Taipan.

He has been bitten four times but luckily survived each time.
