Short Talk:

I have finally succumbed to the dark side and joined Facebook. Add me only if I know you personally.


The Wildest Thing I Have Done

I heard Vietnamese people have a penchant for exotic food, but I wasn't prepared for this.

Warning: This video may offend.

The only reason why it's here is because it's something you don't see everyday.

I am prepared for negative comments. Before you condemn me to hell, let me go on record to state that I do not condone my own actions in that video clip. That was the first and last time I had done what I did, and I will never do it again.

Hey Kenny,

The snake heart and gall are supposed to be very potent aphrodisiac and nutritious. Felt any "difference" after swallowing the whole series of stuff ? :)

Well... That's one way to wake up in the morning... Almost made me throw up my coffee.

Sickening...Video taped as part of a memory for you life and also for your blog.
I only pity the snake here, cut opened alive...can you imagine someone cut you open alive and someone else recording the entire scene?
Things human do just for the experience and it doesn't matter if it hurts and torture another living being. It's nothing memorable other than it reminds you of plain cruelty...

Posted by: J at 04 October 2007 10:22 AM | Link to comment

According to sources of Anthony Bourdain (i.e. the Vietnamese):
Eating the snake makes you strong
Eating the palpitating snake heart makes you VERY strong...

Level up liao...

I thought at first it was the snake's balls and lanjiao, because I was watching it on silent.. and the bile I thought was semen.. well, in that case I guess the video's not as bad as I'd imagined it would be, from your warning message..

Yeh,

I quote from your comment
"J,

dont think me u dont eat chicken? or any other living things?
u vegetarian issit?"

There's a difference between eating chickens and killing a snake like that. Normally, for chickens/pigs/cows, they will slaughter it first, so they suffer minimal amount of pain. For this case, the people slit open the snake just like that (I'm assuming because I didn't have the heart to watch), don't you think the snake will suffer more pain?

I'm not here to condemn, since Kenny said he wouldn't do it again, I just hope you understand animal cruelty.

Posted by: I have no name at 04 October 2007 11:52 AM | Link to comment

My only concern would be food poisoning since it's not cooked - what if the snake got disease or something ...

But thumbs up for the courage to do it ... I might even wanna try out of curiosity.

as far as i can tell, they slit the snake's throat first (right?) so i don't think it's a particularly cruel act, actually.

Posted by: Mr. Rajawang at 04 October 2007 1:07 PM | Link to comment

That's really horrible! Did the snake die when its throat was slit? Because it looks like it was still alive until its heart was cut out...or do snake hearts beat for so long after death??


Anyways, I suppose it was an 'experience'...not condemning you eating it...just the way it was killed/tortured (if it was still alive during all that evisceration)

friend .....

all these while, i've been visiting your site, with great respect on your, as a silence reader. This is the first time i've dropped u a comment.

I saw all your stickers on the 'save the world', 'wwf', 'save the rhino', etc..... but, why would u wanna do that?

I do not have any hatred, just feel a sad. Human is the most powerful creature in this world, and yet, why would they wanna do that? They can easily reduce the pain of the snake by killing it first, instead of cutting it open while its still alive.

I'm sorry if my comment sounded offencing. Just would like to leave my thought here.

Peace.

u are BRAVO !

Posted by: mich at 04 October 2007 2:04 PM | Link to comment

Hi Kenny,
Human is powerful creature, but please don't take it for granted. You tortured a snake to death just for the sake of your curiosity(or some other reasons), you do not condone your action or even if you wouldn't forgive yourself for your entire life, the fact is your really did kill a snake cruelly. Sorry for being offensive, I'm here to speak for the creature who can't speak for themselves.

ai yeah a lot of people do that not kenny only your level up from swordman to fighter kenny .kung si kung si.

I salute you,Kenny!lol~
That was a brave act.I'd already puke before I eat/drink those disgusting things.
Too bad that was the last time you're gonna do anything similar to that.:p
I was like "Ewww" when they started to cut the snake and took out the organs.Then I looked at the time left before the clip is finished,and I think to myself:Quickly finish it lah!LMAO!
Props to Kenny again!

Save the Sumatran rhino ad is the biggest on your page, annual attendance to Rainforest Music Festival (or whatever it's called but I bet nature conservation is part of the message), loving the deep, undisturbed, rural area for it's serenity. You ought to feel a little proud of yourself, buddy.

I reckon the kid rapist/murderer didn't condone his act either.

Posted by: Keith at 04 October 2007 2:55 PM | Link to comment

What an attention whore. As someone has said, you've got all this save the wildlife etc going on your website before and now you do this.

Just when I was reading this entry, I saw this nuffnang ad about saving the rhinos. LMAO.

Raw blood, bitter gall bladder juice and a live beating heart are NOT delicacies in any sort of way. Neither are they exotic, just cruel man-ego boosting voodoo crap.

The only reason you're doing this is attention whoring, not for health/curiosity reasons.

Humans who waste food or torture animals for the sake of egos will one day receive the appropriate karma response.

Oh btw, snakes have parasites in their blood.

Nature has a wonderful way of defense against other predators.

Posted by: ShadowFox at 04 October 2007 2:58 PM | Link to comment

erm..i just think it's disgusting when i saw the heart still pumping..and u actually ate it..

It's an experience though...but still painful to see the snake got cut alive.. T.T

They still do it in pasar malam now. I saw once (I mean, after the whole killing process was done) last year in KL. One cup, even smaller than the Starbucks espresso cup can easily fetch up to RM20. Gross anyway~

Posted by: Felipe at 04 October 2007 3:14 PM | Link to comment

don't really see anything wrong with eating the snake's heart or even killing it. we are after all, predators, and at the top of the food chain. what is bad however, is doing anything excessive or torture.

just my personal opinion. :)

i dont understand what is all the condemnation about animal cruelty..
its how things are done and always have been done

What's the difference if someone cuts off the head of the a chicken and slicing the snake alive to obtain the heart?

Don't bullshit that they use anesthetic on the animal before killing it .. whats the difference between killing it by chopping off the head and slicing out the heart? Both end up dead in the end

Ooo..I've seen the cooks taking a live frog from the aquarium and placing it in a plastic bag and while it's still hopping, chop it with a cleaver in a restaurant..
Didnt dare to watch the frog being killed.

Posted by: StockTube at 04 October 2007 4:37 PM | Link to comment

Kenny's intention is cruel and selfish.

He know it's wrong but he still does it. I guess it's right for people to go out and do things they know it's wrong and tell others that it will only be the first and the last time? What bull shit is this?
Just because it's a snake does not mean it deserves the torture it goes through.
This is the 2nd post that pisses me off after the post about the accident photos.

I don't go to the market and point to a chicken and ask the person to slit its neck and cut out the heart when it's still beating. Gosh i will never do it coz i am a human being, not a beast.

Kenny what you have done is beastly. That's all i can say, even it was just for the experience, it just displays that you are just plain selfish and would do it at the expense of hurting another living being.

Posted by: scott at 04 October 2007 4:41 PM | Link to comment

Kenny, you should avoid eating the following 3 types of meat:

1) Meat of animals killed personally;
2) Meat of animals killed in the presence of you;
3) Meat of animals killed especially for your consumption.

These 3 types of meat will cause heavy bad karma if consumed

Hey all you people condemning Kenny. Get off your 'holier than thou' pedestal!!!!! Humans kill animals for food. Thats the way it is. There is a food chain and guess what. You (humans) are part of it too. You either eat or get eaten. Thats how it has been going on for millions of years. Don't think you can go against nature. Stop thinking you are somehow superior....

For your own sake...Elaine...If you want to know the meaning of animal cruelty. Go visit an abatoir or a commercial farm and see the living conditions of these animals. If you feel so much for the animals, then go vegetarian. Don't try to be morally superior about whats right and wrong. Its so easy to say others are immoral and wrong. Think about it the next time you order your combo meal at KFC....

Obviously you know that it's cruel, then y r u doing it? I know that everyone should try everything once in their lives but putting an animal in misery just to prove to urself that u did it. Is that worth it? It's like eating the brains out of a monkey when it's still alive. Just because it's a snake, it doesnt mean that it's any less of a living being. I'm glad u'll never do that again.

To Bryan: some people do become vegetarians, u know? ppl who say that eating animals is just part of the circle of life r just too stubborn n lazy to change their habits. Animals die to feed and clothe you, so the least u can do is minimize their pain. Show some respect, ppl...

Well like chickens, those snakes were BRED for human consumption. So if you smartasses wanna start on human cruelty, become a vegetarian.

Oh they slit the snake while it was alive so its cruel? How'd you think they killed them KFCS? Wail till old age then die naturally isit? They slit the throats and leave them to bleed jackasses. Go be vegetarians then, you saint wannabes.

Just imagine your children been treat like the snake by some others one day. Then the eater say, I'll never do it again!!!

I understand that novelty gets your blog ratings higher and that doing what you did was a new experience for you. I appreciate it when you say that you are never going to do it again.

But sometimes, there are things that you should just say no to.

And to readers who keep dissing those who are protesting against animal cruelt, there is no need for name-calling. Hasn't it occured to any of you that those who are protesting are indeed vegetarians?

And for those who support Kenny's action, you do not have to curse and make a fool out of yourselves.
Who are you to assume that we are not vegetarians?

We are humans, we are given brains to think and to judge from what is right and what is wrong...We do not act by instinct and for our own benefits to hurt other beings, whether animals or humans.
And what makes you think that you are more superior than the snake or any types of animals? And who have the right to say that chicken is bred just for human consumption? Any living being have the right to live on the face of this earth.

Kenny can still make a joke out of it.

I think your parents and teachers forgot to teach you about respect along the way.

You fail to respect the dead by snapping photos of an accident scene.

Now you fail to respect the living beings by supporting their slaughtering and drinking their blood.

You are sick up there.

Posted by: elaine at 04 October 2007 7:14 PM | Link to comment

in a way, i dont feel that grossed out when i saw this cos i've watched a lot of documentaries related to this kind of issue.

Even if kenny didnt eat it, the snake was going to end up on another person's plate anyways. Kenny made this clip to sort of give us an insight about the vietnamese kind of life. Nothing's wrong with it.

At least you don't see kenny going around china eating human fetuses! People in china really do that! Not that I'm against china. That's the fact.

Posted by: shar at 04 October 2007 7:24 PM | Link to comment

i see it another way. With kenny posting this up.. all those curious guys would had obtain a virtual experience and as such would not be curious anymore to do it.. As such prevent future requests of such things. Else if u visit vietnam and was told of this special thingie.. u would have gone and by request another snake killed. I know i would had given it a skip since i had seen it thru Kennysia eyes. Eeyuuu... gross.

Kenny, thanks for showing that man! I gotta say you have guts and a really open mind for trying that.

To those people who are so vehemently against it: Let him do what he wants lah. It's his right to do so. He is only showing it so that people who are interested to know exactly what its like and how it's done can know. He's not imposing or condoning his action so don't impose your beliefs on other people. Open mind to everything right? :)

Posted by: ling at 04 October 2007 9:20 PM | Link to comment

I don't know whats wrong with you guys but, even though I'm an animal lover, I'm not complaining. Snakes are considered a delicacy in vietnam and Kenny might be curious about this delicacy so he decided to try some. That snake isn't an endangered species so it's not as bad as killing an endangered rhino or something. (if you didn't notice, the man slit the snake's throat and dripped the blood out, similar to how chickens are slaughtered.)

If you complain-ers think cutting the snake like that is cruel, what about people who cut of sharks fin and dump the shark in the sea to die? The sharks fin are more in demand than the snake leh. And more people eat shark fin soup than snakes.

Anyway that was one helluva dining experience for you kenny. How does it taste like?

It's not nice to watch live slaughter.
But hey. That's what's happening every single day of your lives. Your chickens are slaughtered, your beef comes from slaughtered cows, your fish is frozen to make it die.......

Just because you didn't see it doesn't mean that it doesn't happen.

Just because you saw the guy killing the snake doesn't mean that it only happened because Kenny Sia wanted it to.

Posted by: pehhua at 04 October 2007 10:15 PM | Link to comment

yes i agree with N. These people living there make a living out of it. Without such income, these villages could lack the funds it needs to support its growth. Besides, we humans are after all on the top of the human chain, and it is only right that we consume things down the chain.

Think about it, way back in the past, these villages might not have much food and could only rely on such food to get by. Who are you to criticise? They might not be rich enough to choose the food they eat. Soldiers in the army do this to survive, and just because Kenny shared his experience you flame him?

Besides that, this will not affect the ecological cycle that much as they are REARED for such a purpose. This is simply the facts of animal rearing. To kill an animal for cruelty, that is another matter. I acknowledge that my views could be biased but this is what I feel. Just go ask your grandmother, how they killed their chickens in the kampongs, and you will realise that it isn't too different. Thanks. Sorry if i have offended anyone but I guess this is what I feel. =)

cheers

Why are you contradicting yourself, Kenny? And to think you can still make a joke out of all the comments. Shame on you, Kenny Sia.

yeah man, i agree!
chill people. what's with the holier-than-thou attitude. treat kenny some respect k. he's been amazing, treating us to a first-hand experience with strangers!

instead of appreciating his generosity, you guys are pinpointing at the snake's death. hello, if you care so much, jolly well go to vietnam and start a damn riot!

don't be rude to kenny and criticize him and ask him to go to hell. who are you to tell someone that? and rapists and robbers are unsound in the mind. does kenny sound like a deranged man? he's a guy who knows himself well, that's what i know!

how can you preach such big theories when you yourself don't have respect for others? aiyo and respect the animals? when the snakes kill you they respect you ah? look at what happened to steve irwin and i ask you, what's the point?

Just because 'humans are on top of the food chain', 'the snakes were reared to be eaten', 'other animals are killed in the same way' doesn't make it right. The way it was killed looked like torture to me, regardless of whether its done on a snake, or any other animal.


Sure, we can all go around giving justifications...that doesn't make anything right...only justifiable. Now I'm not trying to say that this is the exact same case, but I'm sure Hitler thought that what he was doing was 'right' too...and was able to justify it...just like the terrorists of 9/11...etc. Yes, the example is a bit exaggerated, but hopefully you can see my point.

And no, I'm not attacking Kenny...just condemning the behaviour. Does that mean that I'm going to make a noise and do something about it? No. I accept that I act purely out of self-interest and speciesm. Humans come first. Doesn't mean I don't feel bad about it sometimes.

Kenny, you used to be one of my favourite bloggers. What do you mean by you do not condone your own actions in that video clip?? You are contradicting yourself. Why post such a video with yourself clearly eating the snake's heart and who knows what organs and still say that you do not condone your own actions in that video clip?

You may as well take off that Save Our Sumatran Rhinos banner, because you just proved how much you are trying to save the animals by posting videos of yourself eating animal organs.

And you actually have the nerve to poke fun at these readers:

"My goodness.

All these pro-vegetarians on my blog make the military junta in Myanmar look like darling angels."

You just lost another reader. Not like it matters to you anymore does it since you have so many?? It's sad that I used to like your blogging style, back when you weren't so caught up in all this fame.

Albert, actually they did kill it first. When the first incision was made, the arteries of the snake were cut, instantaneously starving the brain of blood, leaving it without any time at all to register pain. It may look gruesome, but it's actually one of the most humane ways to slaughter the animal.

Haiyah he test power 1 snake for the rest of the world, so that the rest of the world don't have to test power themselves.

Look at the big picture la hoh, half the comments we see are mostly "eeewwwww, that was gross" or "eeeyer, so cruel". Only a few sickos will approve.

Wow O_o That was really an eye-opener...Thanks for sharing the video with us Kenny =)

For those guys who feel that the snake was cruelly murdered, please take a trip to your local wet market.

The last time I went there (Imbi morning market, KL) to buy a chicken, they pulled a screaming chicken from over-crowded cages stacked together, held back its wings, slit the throat with a knife, let its blood slowly drip away, and you could hear the chicken's clucking becoming softer and softer...They then throw it into a big tub of water, and after that they'll pluck the feathers away.

Finally, they pass the featherless chicken back to the butcher, and you can feel some blood splashing on you as they chop it up into small pieces for you to take back home in a wet plastic bag. All this in front of other chickens that were alive in cages.

I might have remembered some of the procedures incorrectly as it's been quite some time since I stood there and waited for them to freshly slaughter the chicken again.

So, it's really the same actually. At least the other snakes didn't have to see how they were going to die, one by one, unlike the chickens.

First time I leave my comment here. Wonder if Kenny would see it. I've just done reading the latest NGM. Got an article talked about zoonotic. A lot of virus/bacteria/fungi r living in the host body (animals) waiting quietly for the chance to "evolve". HIV, SARS, Ebola, etc etc are found out that was transferred from animals to human. Those virus existed for millions of yrs god knows waiting to be one day famous, by wiping off homo sapiens.

vegetarians create foods that looks like meat. what's the point?

Snakes are cute! Dead snakes, cuter! :P
Beating heart doesn't mean the snake was still alive. Keep doing what you do best, Kenny.

The shame that it all started with these assumptions that if you eat these exotic delicacies(bear liver,tiger balls,shark fins,monkey brain, etc, etc and many other mind-boggling no scientific backing mumbo-jumbo meals):

#Gives 'super' incredible hulk power
#You live life once and you need to try everything just for the sake of experience.

Has it really been proven scientifically or some bomoh cook up that beliefs centuries ago and some people out there are still dim enough to keep up with ancient times.If you know deep down in your heart you're causing harm and hurt to something how could you stood buy and let it happen. Two wrongs can never make a right. You must start an example lah kenny.

The shame that all you could think of was this cruelty was for entertainment sake. I would have saluted you if you actually made the bold statement to say what people do from ancient days like these should not be permissible in todays' day and age.

Rather than swallow, maybe next time rinse in your mouth to savour the taste. And chew on the heart too.

Taste is acquired. ;)

Gotta go to Vietnam one day..........

This was a very common scene at the notorious street, Jalan Wong Ah Fook in Johor Bahru more than 10 years ago. I don't know whether it's still there nowadays.

i used to drink snake blood before, my mum say it is good for our body. but to be frank, it is disgusting

Anyone who has a decent physiology/biology knowledge would know that cardiac muscles will contract independently for a while under certain circumstances. The snake would be dead when the guy slit the throat and drained its blood (quickest way to kill). Its heart however will continue to beat for a few minutes.

From what I understand, don't they slaughter chickens the same way??

I'm sure they breed these creatures commercially to keep supplying the customers. So that's no different from say, having sashimis in a japanese restaurant when they sometimes slice the flesh of the fish when it's still alive!

Become vegetarian, if you must.

I'll try that once, someday, and probably never do it again in my life :p

Btw, how did it feel and taste?

I used to eat porridge mixed with eel blood and cooked eel meat, everyday, when I was younger, there's lots of em at the construction site.

Totally agree with Adrian Adonis's comment. Well said.
Humans, they have to give excuses for doing a wrong act. They have enough to eat and yet they still feel that present life experience is not enough, they have to resort to torturing other animals that need not die if it's not for their selfless action.

Why not just fly to countries that have riots and wars? Wouldn't that be an experience Kenny will never forget? But he would not do that, would he? I guess he do not want to end up dead either.

Hi. I didnt go thru all the messages for this thread but could see MANY readers being gross out and shooting vulgarities/offensive and angry words at you for being cruel.

Honestly, I feel gross out too but not because I pity the snake. I feel nothing for snakes and am actually happy that you have got rid of one of the worlds greatest pest and danger. For other readers out there, you canno
