All snake-related for me:
1. A King Cobra standing up to say hello a couple of feet in front of me on my old patch at Ng Tung Chai produced the greatest adrenaline rush I never want to have again! The only time I felt the hairs stand up from scalp to spine.
2. Looking down to see an Adder beneath my upraised foot on Rame Head in Cornwall in the mid 80s
3. Looking down to see a Banded Krait beneath my upraised foot in Tai Po Kau in March 1989
4. Taking a step back on the same Ng Tung Chai patch for better views of a Crested Serpent Eagle across the valley when a rustle by my ankle revealed itself as a silently sunbathing Chinese Cobra, that oozed silently away as my stomach turned with sickening relief.
Cheers
Mike
