Don't attempt jumping down on both sides, it just makes a mess of things
This is true, if you try to get both the levers at once, it just leaves the healer scrambling around trying to heal the group from side to side, obviously not the way to go since the casttime is 10 seconds.

The only problem with this is the part where there are too many snakes on the tank, and if your tank cannot take the damage done by the boss it will just stress the healer's mana way to much. Eventually leading him/her to oom eventually if the DPS are not quick enough. Depending on your tank and how well that person can negate damage taken is vital to use this strategy. But for someone like a Death Knight tank or Druid tank who don't use shields, they will take a bulk amount of damage, but the Death Knight tank can merely heal it. I don't know about the druid tank.
