Memorable bites

I grew herping in the deserts of southern California, and I been bit more times than I can count, mostly by kings. Got tagged on the SHOE once by a sidewinder, after that experience, I stopped chasing hots.
The worst bite was from my big burm, and that was my fault, I startled him. It was a quick bite and release though, it could have been a lot worse.
Funniest one had to be the beardie bite, I was hand feeding supers and my big female just got a bit excited and munched the tip of my thumb with her worm, a little extra protein in her diet that day.
I have a male red tail that has been trying to get me for two years, he hasn't managed it yet, so maybe I've finally learned how to stay out of the way.
