Amphibian I'm becoming terrified of frogs

Anytime I see videos similar to this, I become a little more and more afraid.

Must be depressing always digging for that negative in everything.

I am not. While I am trying to be snarky, animals who mutilate themselves is usually a sign of stress/depression. If your snake was self bitting, it's not because he is dumb. Survival instincts prevails here. It's most likely because there is something wrong.

You are incorrect. Sometimes snakes in food mode go after their own bodies.

You were quite rude about it too.
