About the “SNAKE HUNT”
A movie in which Alex Jones explores a dangerous rattlesnake together with his G’zOne. The movie presents Alex Jones overcoming various harsh environments taking advantage of excellent features of G’zOne Commando 4G LTE such as its toughness performance, EARTH COMPASS, BAROMETER, among others. The “sidewinder rattlesnake” he explored in this episode is a viper living in the deserts of the Western United States. When the snake moves in the desert, it wiggles its body in S-shape and moves sideways. The name of “Side Winder” derives from the fact. When bitten by the snake, our body partially becomes necrotic. If allergy’s symptoms occur, they are sometimes fatal. The “sidewinder rattlesnake” is such a dangerous viper.
