If this was an amazon driver they would''ve been fired by the company for spending too long at the stop.
Fact 💯!
😖😣
😂😂😂😂😂😂
No doubt
Same at UPS, they would call it "stealing time".
That is customer service!
True customer service ❤
Now if only that was the true case for FedEx as they are the absolute worst parcel carrier, UPS has always been best imo albeit a little on the pricy side but at least they’ll get you package to you safe and sound and the drivers are all nice.
@MrThatnativeguy Our FedX drivers are quite different. One will call me so I can open my gate. One will just set them over the gate which is fine. The other one leaves them on the outside of the gate on the road basically and that infuriates me because they can get stolen.
🫡💯I approve this message!
Wow
Matt needs a raise.
not a hero to kill animals. they live there and humans moved in. if you can’t deal with the local animals then move
FR
@@ericlucci2829 And where do you live you plonker?
I expect hundreds of animals and insects were killed and moved on for your comfy accommodation. 🤦♂️🤦♂️
No doubt
Shut up, Eric.
Delivers package, notices a deadly viper, retrieves instruments to dispatch viper, kills said viper, cleans up, leaves a text and goes to his next delivery...Dude is beyond chill
It's not a viper
@@JohnDoe-bo3zirattlesnakes are vipers
@@jungchang3227indeed they are!
@@JohnDoe-bo3zi it is literally in the family of pit vipers haha
@@JohnDoe-bo3zi🙄🤣😂
His situational awareness is on point seeing he realized that children live there and could be attacked.
I say he wouldn’t have noticed if the snake didn’t warn him and rattle
rattlesnakes NEVER attack. stupid humans step on them and they strike back ...and not every time
@thablackkowboy6310 you thought of that all by yourself? Good jooob?
@@j.j.6535 stop being a douchebag
@@j.j.6535are you angry
the dog knew it was there.
I noticed it growled when it was looking in the direction where the snake ended up.
But it wasn't there yet
@@carpo719 I'm wondering if the dog picked up on it, wherever it was, probably nearby, but since the girl didn't see it she rushed the dog through. Not in the final place where it was killed, but possibly close to it.
@@vladimirputindreadlockrast812I bet it was just on top of the first step in the crack, stretched out, but just below the top step. The dog was whining and concerned.
@johnhickman106 Dog might not of come out unscathed. It would probably get it but not without likely getting bit. It's best the delivery driver got it. Man's best friend is willing to die for us but we shouldn't ask for it.
that's how i got bit. it was dark, i stepped out on my porch and it was on the first step, just like this one. i'm still alive because the ambulance was there within four minutes.
Omg 😱 I can’t imagine! Had to hurt bad??!!!!! 😖
Lmao. You wouldn't have died with a delayed response, fcking drama queen.
What state do you live in?
@@LIONESSOFZION exaggeration
Im glad are ok. Here we have tons of copperhead. I live in a city. My neighbor just got bit at night. It was hiding in the mulch in front of the house.
He behaved like a dad and protector. How heart warming in these crazy times.
The dog knew it was there.
bro was like 'bbrrrr' at the end like it was nothing ✋🏼😂
Leatherface ahh tick
That was a "I just killed a rattle snake and it was nasty and scary" shake off 'bbrrr'. He was just shaking it off.
@@user-vp1sc7tt4m ohh 😂, that makes sense
@@user-vp1sc7tt4m I Know Right!! The Poor Guy!! But Somebody Had to do it!! 😨😱🤦🤷☹️💔🖤🕊️
@@user-vp1sc7tt4m Well, sometimes you gotta shake it off after you drain the snake, and yeah, who doesn't get a little shiver afterward now and then?
Hey, look at it this way: at least no porch pirates will bother the package!
You got me thinking, as this is a real problem in our neighborhood. Maybe get a fake one that looks real and put it on the porch!
The family could easily put up a sign that said "Beware of rattlesnakes" and they would never get thieves or burglars!
@@Runner8617 Or How About: We Have a Snake Infestation!! Beware!! 😂😂😂😂 That Would be Awesome!!
@@Runner8617or packages. 😂
0:12 the way it just popped its head up like “ay yall got any snacks”
“Ay you got games on your phone?”
He sounded like he does this almost daily. What a hero.
😂😂
The dog knew it was there
They always do
Dog was more interested in getting the hell out of the heat.
He needs hazardous duty pay
This guy went above and beyond of a delivery drivers duty.
He should be fired and arrested for animal cruelty.

Friendly rattlesnake was just like I'm keeping mice and rats out. Hey there why do you have a shovel??
Because he was looking at the children wrong wondering how they taste
They're usually not aggressive and won't bother people if left alone.
@@ledzeppelin1212if it’s on your front step and you step on it unknowingly it will bite you.

Damn! That's what I call going above and beyond.
What a great person. Probaly saved a life.
Praying all the extra blessing in this man for protecting this family 🙏🙌❤
Absolute bad ass! Customer service that actually saves lives. Salute to you Matt!
Probably saved a life as well!
This is a true man of our Heavenly Father. Bless him abundantly for his courage and compassion. Awesome man. Wow. Thank you for going the extra mile. I pray this video goes viral and someone gives you a free vacation to a destination of your choice. You are a life saver. Bless you. 🙏🙂🎉
No
Yea, he sure had a ton of compassion for that innocent snake just doing its thing. Didn't have to kill it. There is such a thing as animal control. I love how the devout religious force the rose-colored glasses of the heavenly father on everything. Sanctity of life , hahah yeah, only when it supports your narrative.
The dog knew there's a snake and she just didn't pay attention.
To be fair, though, lots of dogs will freak out over everything.
Possum! Possum! Hey! Did you know there's a possum there?! Possum!
Aye, my neighbor dogs would bark at any slightest unknown sound, local cats barely react when pass the house.
Love how they describe it as a murder" Disposed of the body" "Have a few trash bags, Ill put em in there and figure out what to do with later" 😂
Ty for Saving the Dog & Family ❤
That is going above and beyond customer service! Awesome story!
I came across a little rattle snake when I was walking my dogs yesterday. We looked at it for a second and it turned around back the way it was coming from. It was just trying to live its life.
Thank you, Matt! 🐍
I guarantee you that Matt will never be confused about whether he's a man or a woman 😂
force controversial subjects much?
@scrat8177 It's not controversial at all actually. It's pretty cut and dry.
People in this generation/era really amaze me in the worst way possible. The dog was whining, and obviously something was amiss but she still didn't pay attention to her surroundings. Good thing that Fed Ex guy was alert and acted. Those kids could have been attacked/killed by that venomous snake
Kinda hard not to be alert when you hear it rattling like it did. Lmao
Well fed and overly provided generation.
Thank Goodness ACTUAL COMMON-SENSE PREVAILED ALL THE WAY AROUND!! WHEN YOU SEE DANGER, AVOID FIRST, then PREVENT& and ELIMINATE DANGER TO OTHERS!! THAT'S LIFE!! GREAT JOB!!
They forgot to mention he wrote the note with the rattlesnake's own blood 😅
yeah. lol
Nah he used tbe snakes venom is wut I heard
He sent a text message. They showed the text message lol
The snake was in the other corner cuz the Black Lab was whining, warning the person who was with him, but that person didnt ay attention to the dogs whining!
Exactly it was hiding in the other corner out of view once everyone left it changed corners it slithered across the step lol
That was the original reason why we had dogs. But we have perverted their original function.
I don't think the dog was whining. The girl was whistling. If you look at her face as she faces the camera, you can see her lips puckered (whistling).
If that girl would have left just a minute or two later😳
yeah, she might've heard the rattle and turned around, just as nature intended.
@@scrat8177 Yes, you're right, something I never thought about.👍
Where there is one there is more..stay alert around your property
Matt easily wins deliveryman of the year with me.
What a man.
A "man" would have let it live and relocated it. 🙄
Why did I just watch this video knowing good and well I’m terrified of snakes and just got a job as a delivery driver🤦🏾♂️
Iam afraid of them also bro!
I’m one of Jehovah’s Witnesses and once there was a little garter snake on the porch 🤭 I feel for you!
@@jessicalatorraca8507you are not Jehovah’s Witness but are in a cult. Repent and find the real Jesus.
As for those who are afraid of snakes, carry something that can kill it. Wear protective clothing.
Be ready to kill it when it comes.
The word hero is a lie. No such thing.
As men it's our duty to protect 👍
you can bet there is at least another nearby. We always find them in pairs.
No you don't find them always in pairs are you stupid
Not always true. I live on a ranch and have lived on ranches for about 25 years. Don't put unnecessary fear in people.
True, they come looking for them too. They track their scent trail and will likely be found where they last were.
Happened underneath on my Aunts front porch steps. Two days later a second same sized rattler in the identical spot .
Lmao. Rattlesnakes are not always in pairs, dumbsht.
You could tell at the very beginning the dog already saw it and was whining at it but the human never even noticed how the dog was acting.
Hi, obviously you all aren't paying attention to your Dog!!! it is warning you❤ Listen to your your pup🐶they are telling you that something is there!!! Personal experience with a snake and scorpion🐾
dogs commonly bark at strangers outside, a dog barking at the door is nothing unusual. At my home we'll be like "stop barking! it's just the neighbors... again"
@@silverfox9004 Not all dogs are the same
@@jayluis189 I know, just trying to explain a common way many people read their dog's barking. It's too bad we can't understand what they're actually trying to say, maybe they're saying hi to the neighbors or trying to tell us there's something interesting outside
I never knew Amazon drivers or fed ex drivers had that kind of time on their hands.
how much time do you think it took?
something that can endanger people's lives is more important than being a little slower to fulfill your duties
They have to make sure the package is safely accessible if they're saving Iives then extra 10 minutes won't be a big deal.
Matt you the man!
Good lookin out bro.
God bless and peace
Haha I was thinking what if it was their pet??? He made a good assumption that it was not.
I love how they showed "Matt from" and blocked out Fed Ex even as we can all see the Fed Ex logo on his truck in the background. 😂 Well done, Matt from _____!
Ironically, they will probably fire him...🤦🤦🤦
ikr
On the rattlesnake's behalf, the welcome mat did say WELCOME!
Well lady if "he left it there" it wasn't his job to remove it, neither did he place it there to begin with.
Rattlesnake: Please don't tread on me.
Matt: *Proceeds to tread on him*
Cool assertive dad vibes great customer service 🙏🏽🥃
Very glad he prevented someone from getting hurt by the snake. That said this is what happens with People building their homes where these animals are just trying to live. Remember this when the rat population increases.
I noticed that people who hate other people for "displacing wildlife" say so from their own home where apparently no wildlife ever existed. People matter, too.
@Jr-qo4ls We are part of nature. We live here too. Animals kill each other every day. Rattlesnakes will bite anything they perceive as a threat. We are no different.
Looks like it was already there
Smake lovers hate Matt for this😂😂😂;=it's just a shy thing 💀
Kudos to Matt!!💪🏼❤
Give him a raise immediately!
Maybe he shouldn't have started working at low wage fedex.
What a stud!
The dog knew.
There's a Ring video of cartoonist Berkeley Breathed (Bloom County) stepping out of his home in his bare feet and he comes pretty close to a rattlesnake that's curling up on his front porch. Scary.
That said: Instagram has been sending me videos of a guy named Wrangler Bruce who seems to do nothing but capture rattlesnakes when he's called. He makes it look easy. Still, I don't know if I would want to do it.
I'm glad this driver kept the family safe. That's always the most important thing. But if one wants -- and one is in Arizona -- Wrangler Bruce is a good option.
He is a man a modern young man would capture on video and post online…maybe leave a message. This is who will be lost in our modern agenda.
Going way above and beyond...
What a MAN! ❤
But you did have the Welcome Mat out ! 😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
That may be so, but Matt welcomed it off the property.
🎶Like a good neighbor FedEx is there!!!🎶 I bet your insurance agent won’t do that!
I’m wondering if there may be habitat loss nearby? You might consider taking this up with your local town board or, better yet, with a Dept. Of Environmental Conservation (for the safety of the neighborhood). So glad your family is safe! 💚
An Amazon driver would have thrown the package snapped a pic to send you (with the snake) and ran off to their vehicle
I would of called animal control. Because I'm a wuss like that. Much Respect Matt
And they could've possibly relocated it without killing it as well
@DeviousKitten27 I was thinking the same thing. I kind of feel sorry for the snake 🐍
@@NubbinsSawyer1974 I have felt sorry for venomous snakes I've killed. It's always been because I encountered them somewhere where my family and friends would be walking. It's not fun, but it's the most pragmatic solution a lot of the time (provided it's not endangered or something, obviously).
And there aren't that many distinct venomous snakes in the US, so it's easy to distinguish them from the non-venomous ones, which I never hurt (well, I probably traumatized some as a kid by picking them up).
If that was Amazon they would have put the snake on top of the package.
Snakes are not looking for people to bite 😢
But it happens
Plot twist; the rattlesnake was delivered by an Amazon driver.
There are professionals that will come relocate the snake.
You are so brave ❤! Thank you.
The dog was was looking at it too.
Matt is the goated!. Dude is so lovely
Why in the world is the company name obscured? It's not blurred on the vehicle...
The dog's nose knew it was there! Dog's have up to 300 million olfactory receptors in their noses, compared to about six million in humans!
“If I’m killed simply for living, let death be kinder than man”
He could’ve used the shovel to move the snake and relocate it without killing.
Dangerous without proper equipment or training. That was a big rattler.
1:34 "never knew these words could be used for good" 😂
You know how many people would have ran
Oh my Lord!!!!!!
Shout out to mattttttttt💪🏾
There were people calling for him to lose his job saying he should’ve call to get the snake properly relocated.
Looked properly to me! U rock Matt
it's okay, they are the same people who want to silence and label you for your comments about people pouring across the border into the country. Now they will use their hall monitoring system to flag it as hate speech (immigration status)...
I can understand that. There probably wasn't time for that sort of thing though in case one of the kids came out.
Those same people are censors on this nanny site. They even have the temerity to deny us our first amendment...
@@troyhall4039 some guy who runs a wildlife page reported this video for animal abuse and posted a middle finger emoji. His comment got reported though, so It's probably gone.
This is why being under control and him taking his time resulting in spotting a danger and eliminating it
He basically just saved a child, thats a true man.
yea, basically. Cause you know, there's no way a kid could respond to the audible rattle from a rattle snake. Glad to know we can predict the future behind our screens now.
People like Amazon delivery drivers, and rideshare drivers dont get paid nearly enough or get the credit they deserve.
Thank you Matt❤
If it was pet… people would be calling for it to be fired😂
Not all heroes wear capes
Matt we salute you my good.
Excelente driver.
Wow…very scary! Glad he didn’t just ignore it and that he wasn’t afraid of it.
If he wasn't afraid of it he would not have killed it! He is too ignorant to be a hero!

It seems lately, our heros are delivery drivers. The Amazon driver helping the elderly woman. And, now this Fed-Ex driver. We will take heros anytime, wherever they come from.
The snake took the Welcome mat seriously 😂
Which city of state is this?
Funny how the snake knew the coast was clear before going across the steps but his plans were foiled by the Random Delivery Man ! Probably been staying around there for a while!!
