What he is trying to say is that the Venom is harmless or nearly harmless the back fangs can be somewhat harmfull if they "chew" into you.

Though This type of vemon is just a little more toxic than a garter snake can still Swell you up on your hand or arm I think That their is one confirmed death by a FWC. Probably just a little more toxic than a hornet.Only if you are allergic to the vemon will it hurt you beyond that.

But for the most part these guys are harmless. If I am not mistaken. I could be wrong about what you are saying.

Rear fanged animals are hardly ever considered "venomous", even though they technically are. Another common rear fanged snake is the hognose snake, and those are huge in the industry. I think that there is a distinction made for venomous and rear fanged, because I know some states specifically say that rear fanged snakes are illegal.

Yea not a lot of people do, but how often do you hear about someone being bitten by a hognose? They just arent frequent biters because rear fanged mouths make it hard to latch on without swallowing. It's not comfortable for them, so they just try to look scary, thus the FWC having the cobra hood.

Sorry for being unclear. The snake itself has a nasty bite (I've heard) kind of a ripping more then chewing, so that is something to be weary of. The "venom" is, like someone said, similar to a bee sting. That rumor of someone dying from a FWC is just that, a rumor, There has never been a confirmed death from a FWC bite. If someone is anemic, complications can arise since the venom prevents blood clotting and usually you get a pretty good gash. Although these guys aren't considered a "hot" species, some states have them on a bad list. I shouldnt have to say this but check your laws before inquiring me about him.
thanks
