For maximum effectiveness, use piano wire.

Here's one you might have seen a long time ago: The cowboy gets snake bit. He cuts a slice between the fang marks and sucks the poison out. Of course that only works on areas that are accessible.

It doesn't work at all.

At Camp Ripley, Minnesota, I was working with a National Guard unit, and there was a hullabaloo in the brush. I ran over and found a soldier who had been snake bit -- the classic fang-and-side teeth mark. A sergeant came up with a Cutter snakebite kit. Those things don't work -- the cups just fall off. While he was trying to make it work, a medic came up. "It's too late, anyway."

When he heard that, the kid's eyes rolled back up in his head and he fainted dead away. I grabbed him by the stackin' swivel and started smacking his face -- "He means the helicopter is coming!"
