I think it's another hoax, if he was eaten by the snake, why would his arm be folded across his chest and the other on his leg?? Shouldn't they be by his side?

I dont think you have much of a choice where you put your limbs when you get hit and coiled by a snake that big!!
And i know that i wouldnt be standing with my arms down by my side if it was me

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?

As much as I'd like to think its fake, I'm inclined to believe it. The python is definately big enough to swallow a human.
NinaPeas - Looks like head first to me.

The other pics may be different snakes, but the question is, did that last one swallow that human, or is it a setup?

In the pic (supposedly) just before they cut it open to reveal the person, you can see its head down below where the guy's legs are, in the shadow. Assuming they didn't change angles and roll the snake over a bit.
