I wear snake proof gaiters when hiking in the bush (Tenterfield area). Had a massive scare when I stood on a red-belly black snake a little while back. Fucken thing came around and hit the ankle of my boot. I screamed like a bitch and jumped a mile in the air. By the time I landed, it had fucked off.
Mate and myself spent the next half hour examining my leg for any sign of a strike. All okay, but was paranoid every fucken stick i saw on the ground after that.
