Either way some great photos just a pity all snakes involved are dead.

Font.

It's been a while since anyone's described me that way. Usually other four-letter words, or other words beginning with 'F' !

The one with the guy in it that I saw (the amazonian one) was actually true. I not only saw pics of it, but saw a video of them opening it up. And it looked pretty darn real to me.

The snake in the first group of photos isnt dead. Its been boxed up so it wont escape.

apparently, in Wingham (near taree) about 20 years ago a guy fell asleep (passed out from drinking) near this rainforest there. he woke up with a huge python eating his arm.... it was in the newspapers and he had to have his arm amputated. of course... i'm too young to see the papers, and i didnt live there then... but the locals know about it....

my aunt lives near taree and had her dog(small xbreed) tied under the verandah came out to find a rather large python on the chain

???

but when you get swallowed, everything neatly lines up, ever watched a mouse or rat go down? all the legs fold back along the body. Acutally, has that person been swallowed head first or feet first?

Have you ever cut your snake open when it has eaten a mouse or a rat? Once it has gone inside, who knows what happens and what goes where?

You have to ask yourself, why are the gory pics out of focus (like UFO ones), and apparently taken with a KMart throw away camera. Yet the intact snake ones are perfectly in focus and are of sufficient quality as to be able to be blown up on a computer, and appear to be the by product of a significant digital SLR camera. Isn't it funny how we can get incredibly clear, concise shots of any manner of things, with even a phone camera, but once the subject matter is a little "Out there" the focus becomes shat and the quality is equivalent to something taken around the turn of the last century.

Truely though, I heard of a huge python in the Amazon basin swallowing a Caterpillar D9 along with the operator whole, while he was clearing rain forrest. Crept up on him from behind. Honnest, I remember the date 01/04/04. I remember because all the numbers in the date add up to 9, which was the series number of the 'cat'.

I would believe that story except for the fact that there are no pythons in the Amazon Basin.
