Having been a recipient of several prolonged bites by P. olifersi (over 30 seconds with no effect) and P.viridissimus (the most severe of which-nearly five minutes of chewing- left my finger swollen for a week.) I am curious about these "fatalities".

Which Phios have taken lives? And if so, might this have been more in line with a sensitivity or possible allergic reaction rather than the venom its self? I am begining to feel like Superman here...
