Singer Mike Posner Bit By Rattlesnake, Airlifted to Hospital

Singer and songwriter Mike Posner, who is known for his hits “Cooler than Me” and “Please Don’t Go,” revealed that he was bit by a baby rattlesnake and had to be airlifted to a hospital for treatment.

The 31-year-old entertainer was in the middle of an epic walk across the country when the bite happened. He was in Colorado and had already walked 16 miles that day, with 8 more to go.

“Whatup doe!!! Crazy day yesterday! I had just crushed 16 miles and was going for 8 more when I got but by a baby rattlesnake! 🐍 That venom is no joke! I got to the hospital and got the anti-venom in time,” Mike posted on Instagram. “Shout outs to G and Mike from the chopper team 🚁 and Bo and Cassie and Whitney (my nurses). I’ll be here a few days and will not be able to walk for several weeks but enjoying the AC and the nice bed, haven’t had those in a while Hahahaha! Can’t wait to get back on The Walk! KEEP GOING!!!!!!”

We hope Mike Posner gets better soon!
