(CNN) -- A Kentucky pastor who starred in a reality show about snake-handling in church has died -- of a snakebite.
Jamie Coots died Saturday evening after refusing to be treated, Middleborough police said.
On "Snake Salvation," the ardent Pentecostal believer said that he believed that a passage in the Bible suggests poisonous snakebites will not harm believers as long as they are anointed by God. The practice is illegal in most states, but still goes on, primarily in the rural South.




USA! USA! USA!

He enjoyed handling snakes during worship services, but it’s a tradition that has killed about 100 practitioners since it started in the east Tennessee hills in 1909.


I love me some rednecks who insist on dying in stupid ways in the name of tradition.

Playing with snakes - it'll come back to bite ya.

No.

Handling deadly snakes is how you take the express route to heaven from Tennessee

At least he was committed to his beliefs.
