Horrifying moment rugby player bitten by snake during I'm A Celebrity trial

Thousands of fans watch in trepidation when the UK version of I'm A Celebrity...Get Me Out of Here! is aired and features British celebrities trying to conquer trials in the Australian jungle involving snakes, spiders and other creepy crawlies. Australia also has its own version of the popular TV series - which just happens to take place in South Africa.

The Australian version is currently airing and viewers were left in shock after rugby union player Nick Cummins was bitten by a snake during a trial. He had to put his hand into boxes with different animals and creepy crawlies, including the snake, to collect stars for the camp. Although the snake was non-venomous, Nick was left with a bleeding hand after the reptile clenched his jaw around it.

While others have screamed at far less, Nick dealt with the situation very calmly - although host Julia Morris had her hand over her mouth while watching.
