Hi anthonyf78, you`re talking complete nonsense, forced handling will cause much stress, in the worst cases, even death.
You CLEARLY have little knowledge on the subject, and do much to add to the confusion surrounding "taming".
They are highly intelligent reptiles, quite capable in many cases of learning the keeper means no harm, the only way to try and achieve that is with food, something they are obssessed with (feeding from tongs).
Time and patience is the key as I mentioned earlier, and it must ALWAYS be done at the animal`s pace, not the keeper`s..
