The girls on the show are challenged to compete against each other in scary tasks.<br /><br />Ms Wieringa volunteered to open a box containing a large snake, but the snake appears to mistake the contestant for food and strikes at her, clamping it’s teeth into her hand and coiling around her arm.<br /><br />Four crew members run over to try and prize the green anaconda off Ms Wieringa’s arm whilst other shocked contestants stand nearby like slack-jawed gawkers.<br /><br />The snake was non-venomous but Ms Wieringa’s hand was extremely swollen so she was taken to hospital and kept in for observation.
