One thing is for sure, he's awful mean to them, hope he gets bit a few more times, he deserves it. 30-50 lbs and he handles em by the tail which is painful and causes injury to the animal. Funny how he thinks they don't like each other and encourages them to snap at each other when they hate being handled, theyr'e fighting for their life, they're actually smarter than people think and are actually pretty docile when hand raised.
I've raised these from hatchlings and caught plenty of them too, they were fun to raise and observe, definitely not a tree hugger here either, just respect the wildlife, even when going for the kill. Kill em humanely and quickly or leave em alone, I always ask how'd you like to trade places with em ?
I assume he has to keep em alive awhile before killing em for consumption, let the innards clean out but is he just too afraid to hold em by the shell when handling them ? You don't have to hold em by the tail. He will stink to high heaven as those glands on the sides of them release their fluid. I've had the soup plenty of times, I've got a 20 acre pond chock full of them too, but not impressive enough to kill em for that.
I always stick up for the underdog, what I hate is the mistreatment of wildlife by fools, there's no need for it and kids should NOT learn by what they see in that video. Enough said LOL !
