Cottonmouths are like rattlesnakes venom-wise. If the person bit is sensitive to the venom, they could die within minutes, but most people would not die, they would suffer the venom affect for hours or days and may die from complications (infection from burst skin swelling, etc.). Most people die from a heart attack/fear after being bitten and not the poison.

How does a snake get its rattle?

The rattle is composed of a series of nested, hollow beads which are actually modified scales from the tail tip. Each time the snake sheds its skin, a new rattle segment is added. Newborn rattlesnakes do not have a rattle, they gain one after the first time they shed their skin. Adult snakes may lose their rattles on occasion, but more appear at each molting. If the rattle absorbs enough water in wet weather, it will not make noise.
