Nick “The Honey Badger” Cummins was attacked by a snake on Tuesday’s episode of “I’m A Celebrity…Get Me Out of Here”! Australia.
The Bachelor star, 35, was tasked with putting his hand in a snake cage for 30 seconds to win food for the camp.
Approaching the hissing beast, he said before sticking his hand into the nest, “He doesn’t look happy either.”
The animal grabbed Nick’s wrist and bit into it as the former footballer looked distraught as a snake wrapped its jaws around his hand.
He grimaced in pain when host dr. Chris Brown quickly explained that the animal was a non-venomous python.

The animal grabbed Nick’s wrist and bit into it, causing former football player Nick to look distressed as a snake wrapped its jaws around his hand.
It was soon revealed that Nick was bleeding and a stream was dripping from his injured hand, and a snake handler was called to free the reptile from Nick’s arm.
Host Chris Brown quickly called a paramedic to the scene and Nick’s injured hand was treated.
‘He’s fine. I thought his skin was a bit tougher than honey badger. I think we’ll be fine,” the doctor joked.
Nick quickly recovered and took part in the next challenge, earning ten stars out of a possible 13.

It comes after news that Nick is pocketing a hefty pay packet for his time on I’m A Celebrity.
He was reportedly paid a whopping $300,000 for his performance on the show, making his fee the highest ever reported.
“His deal is reportedly worth between $250,000 and $300,000, making him one of the highest paid roommates this year,” an insider told Yahoo Lifestyle.
“It’s a little less than the $500,000 he got for The Bachelor, but this is a shorter production with fewer requirements and rules,” they added.
“It will all be over in a few weeks, unlike The Bachelor where he had to put his life on hold for six months.”
Daily Mail Australia previously revealed that most of the celebrities in the popular series earn between $35,000 and $180,000.
