Male Hognose Snake Strikes

I took this video when I noticed my male was acting crazy. I had initially picked him up and then put him back in the enclosure. While searching for my female in her tank, I looked over and saw him all crazy. I went to pick him back up, and he started hissing and striking.

No, I didn't stand and harass him for long, so don't think that's a regular routine.

No, he wasn't hungry as he had just eaten the day before. I don't know what got into him, but here's the video. It's not the best, as even though I knew the little snake wasn't going to seriously hurt me, instinct still says jump when a snake is striking.
