In Jan 2014, some friends of ours from Hungary were visiting. My parents took them down to Portland, Vic for a holiday and to do some fishing. Well one day, the family and their 8 yr old daughter decided to take a hike along on of the walking trails there.... and came face to face with a massive Eastern Brown Snake. They took pics of it... then ran back down the hill to alert my parents (who stayed back) to what they just saw. They literally just cheated death IMO.
I remember as a kid on a family holiday to Kangaroo Island in 1998, my dad ran over a snake in our old XF Falcon wagon, the bloody snake just slid back into the bushes like nothing had happened.
Speaking of deadly creatures... last few years we were getting dozens of Redback spiders nesting around our pool, and black widows near our outside fish pond and last summer I fished out of our pool what could only be the remains of a Funnel Web or Mouse Spider.
