Hello!
Either you have not registered on this site yet, or you are registered but have not logged in. In either case, you will not be able to use the full functionality of this site until you have registered, and then logged in after your registration has been approved.
Registration is FREE, so please register so you can participate instead of remaining a lurker....
Please note that the information requested during registration will be used to determine your legitimacy as a participant of this site. As such, any information you provide that is determined to be false, inaccurate, misleading, or highly suspicious will result in your registration being rejected. This is designed to try to discourage as much as possible those spammers and scammers that tend to plague sites of this nature, to the detriment of all the legitimate members trying to enjoy the features this site provides for them.
Of particular importance is the REQUIREMENT that you provide your REAL full name upon registering. Sorry, but this is not like other sites where anonymity is more the rule.
Also your TRUE location is important. If the location you enter in your profile field does not match the location of your registration IP address, then your registration will be rejected. As such, I strongly urge registrants to avoid using a VPN service to register, as they are often used by spammers and scammers, and as such will be blocked when discovered when auditing new registrations.
Sorry about all these hoops to jump through, but I am quite serious about blocking spammers and scammers at the gate on this site and am doing the very best that I can to that effect. Trust me, I would rather be doing more interesting things with my time, and wouldn't be making this effort if I didn't think it was worthwhile.

teatime: "How shows like Fear Factor survive without being sued is to have extensive waivers, and I'm sure Ben covered everything with his"
I dont know, but I seriously doubt that Ben even had lliabiilty for this to occur. For sure to poen the store at non business hours and conduct a circus like atmosphere could easily obviate whatever insurance he may have had.... The answer is very simple teatime.. If bankruptcy is filed you will know he had NO insurance to cover this catastrophic loss

Everybody who doesnt live under a rock in the reptile industry is well aware of the incident at Ben Siegels facility, the fact that you keep bringing it up (in the BOI threads as well) doesnt take a genius to figure out that you have a problem with Ben Siegel, and guess what? nobody cares, and nobody agrees with you.

Werent you at the contest? For someone who was against such a "circus" it's strange you would be there in support of it.

I was at the contest. From the sounds of Jerry's comments, it doesn't sound like he was there. If he was there, then he certainly was not paying attention.

Also- that video floating around, that's my footage. I noticed his strategy when he was eating the hornworms- cram as much into mouth as possible, mush it up, wash down with water. It seemed like an awesome strat at the time.
My personal guess would be asphyxiation on vomit after some pretty intense digestive system irritation.
But yes, the South Florida Herpetological Society set up a fund for his daughters.

I'm thinking same thing. I once had food poisoning and started vomiting so violently that had my wife not been there I probably would have died from asphyxiation.

NOW THIS IS FUNNY! thanks again to Mr tresser for giving my attorneys more ammo for the case we are working on. AND JUST SO EVERYONE HERE UNDERSTAND WHY JERRY DECIDED TO COME ON HERE AND BECOME SO VOCAL-it was a rebuttal because he took advantage of us on a $1000 transaction. Here is the thread I started and as you can see--sad mr tresser is circling the bowl--grasping at straws --fun reading--get in on it!

JERRY--are you that ridiculously stupid? Are you serious? I know you are an ex cop, but do you really think you are not liable at this point? Your a EX cop tresser-you know the rules, and I for one am not in the least bit frightened or intimidated by your bullying tactics. THE JIG IS UP--people that know you are coming out of the woodwork's. I really hope you are not as broke as I think you are but that does not even matter. I will pay whatever it costs to have justice served to you.

This thread took a seriously nasty turn from what I expected when I posted the info in the first place. I posted this as information NOT so someone could attack Ben. It was a tragic accident. Stop with the personal vendatta crap!
