I currently keep about 18 species of reptiles, the only one I have that I consider aggressive is a 15 month old brown snake.. the southern tiger is as calm as, the inland taipan (fierce snake) is relatively calm, although he's protective of his enclosure, I consider my two jungle pythons as more dangerous than my tiger or my taipan.. Hell, even my frill neck lizard has bitten me more times than the tiger snake has.. and she's coming on 6 years old now...
I dont know about "nice placid browns" what so ever. I've been chased by browns, I've had them throw themselves 5 feet in my direction with their mouth wide open and fangs out.. they are by no means placid when they are confronted with what they think is a predator... I've not met a single person who handles elapids regularly who would agree that tigers are more of an issue than an eastern brown...
