Maggots are just so foul that they should be wiped from the face of the earth.

I used to feel the same way about snakes until I was in Wilson's Promontory (big hiking and camping national park) and had a brush with a tiger snake and a copper head - both among the most deadly in the world. The tiger snake crossed our path about five metres ahead and the copperhead was basking on a rock right next to the track so we had to walk past it*. When I survived both encounters without suffering a painful death, I decided I wasn't so afraid of snakes any more.


*It should be noted that this is not recommended to anyone and snake experts have since told me I was a bloody idiot to do it.
