Black Mamba Venom is the most rapid-acting venom of any snake species. It contains highly potent neurotoxins. It also contains cardiotoxins. Even a 10 to 15mg quantity of venom can be deadly to a human adult. It delivers an average of around 100 to 120 mg of venom and depending on the quantity of venom injected, it can potentially kill a human in less than 20 minutes. If bitten, neurological, respiratory and cardiovascular symptons begin within 15 mins or less. Symptions include dizziness, drowsiness, coughing and difficulty to breath. The fatality rate depends on various factors, such as the health, size, age, psychological state of the victim, the penetration of one or both fangs from the snake, amount of venom injected, location of the bite, and proximity to major blood vessels
