Coots, if you're not familiar with him, is a Pentecostal preacher from Kentucky, made famous as the snake handler on Nat Geo's "Snake Salvation" reality show...

When we interviewed Texas Snake Man Jackie Bibby about his appearance at Sportsman's Expo and he mentioned a stunt involving laying in a sleeping bag full of snakes, we thought...well, we believed him.
