Rattlesnakes aren't even all that triggerhappy. A guy in Arizona went around the desert with a proxy leg and "stepped" on over 150 rattlers and for the most part, the snakes just wanted to get away. I think he said 6 of them chose to bite the leg

Don't tread on me! Please. If that's the same to you, I'd rather be left alone. Thank you.

I'm actually very distressed myself that I've stepped on you. This is not what I expected or wanted out of my day and I hope we can move along and never see each other again ever

I was once halfway through climbing through a barbed wire fence when I noticed one directly under me. Pants shittingest moment of my life. Fortunately we both maintained our chill and there were no fatalities.
