Producer for Bear Grylls Suffers Horrific Snake Bite [PHOTO]

Yesterday Bear Grylls tweeted a photo of a snakebite that one of his producers is suffering from, and it is NASTY! Just imagine the worst looking snakebite ever, and it won't even be close to this.

Bear said in the tweet, "Our Man Vs. Wild producer suffering from a brutal snake bite - fighting the injury with courage."

Producer Steve Rankin was bitten by a Fer De Lance that was under a log that he stepped over while filming in South America.

WARNING -- THIS IS MORE GRAPHIC THAN YOU IMAGINED!

Keep this in mind, as you head outdoors. With warmer temps come snakes.

The flesh and tissue was completely destroyed. Doctors did a skin graft with tissue from his thigh. Steve tweeted this post-surgery pic...
