Well, some people do it to themselves.

The vast bulk of individuals bitten by rattlesnakes (6000-8000 per year) are male, aged 17-25, intoxicated, and are bitten on the primary hand. Anecdotal evidence suggests that the bite is frequently preceded by the eventual victim saying: "Dude! Hold my beer and watch this!"

The vast bulk of deaths resulting from rattlesnake bites (4-6 per year) involve either children (due to their size) or adults with medical conditions that make them too weak to handle the stresses resulting from the bite. But for most people, even in the absence of antivenin, rattlesnake bites are not fatal if some reasonable level of medical care is provided.

But there are always exceptions. This Darwin Award candidate being a case in point:

The best ever still has to be Nub City. My boss at my last job told me about it. I didn't believe it but it is 100% completely true. There is even a Youtube video of a bunch of them fighting at a town hall meeting.

Back in my day things were better. I'm old and cranky.
