actually ya the poison is a big deal

The venom is composed of many different substances that cause tissue to break down and die as well as cause severe pain.

* The toxins contained in the sheath can cause the following symptoms:

      o Immediate and severe pain radiating up the limb and lasting up to 48 hours
      o <b>Swelling in the wounded area</b>
      o Bleeding from the wound
      o Color change in the area of injury—first dusky blue, then red
      o Sweating
      o <b>Low blood pressure</b>
      o Faintness, weakness, dizziness
      o Salivation, nausea, vomiting, diarrhea
      o Headache
      o Shortness of breath
      o <b>Seizure</b>
      o <b>Muscle cramps and pain, paralysis</b>
      o <b>Heart rhythm irregularities</b>
      o Death, though rare, has been reported from a puncture of the heart or abdomen and from loss of blood.

So having that posion injected right into the heart is a big deal
