I'll try and locate the pics if no one has them.

That's actually a retic too. Despite the bull***** text that accompanies the photos.

Inny, I think that footage you were refering to was of an Afrock eating the impala, but your point was well made. However, impala are antelope and only have two horns, deer (as quoted as being prey items) have many branched antlers which would be even harder to get your mouth around. Human shoulders? Not a problem.

The last photo could be real, a large retic could easily eat a human and I believe it has been verified on several occassions. But that doesn't mean the other two snakes had eaten anyone; maybe just a large pig.

True. But with deer only males have antlers, and only during certain months of the year. And during a certain stage of antler production (the velvet stage), if they did happen to be caught and eaten by a big snake, I suspect the antlers would snap off.

So to catch a deer with a full head of hard antler, the snake would have to be REALLY unlucky.

Its a montage made up of two separte groupd of photos and a single one of a dead snake with a crown around it.
The first lot the snake is alive. the fith is a different snake thtas had its head smashed.
6,7,8 and 9 are from another source completely and again a different snake. and sveral decades earlier than the first lot.
As to the authenticity of the last group, I cannot say.
The Amazon one with the guy in a snake in the back of a ute??????? Its a fake.

Oh ok thanks Hix, It was hosted by Sir David Attenborough, I have the tape somewhere. Either way big snake. If it can get around horns like that I cant see see how shoulders would be a problem. What a way to go though. Ask Lou Farrano how it felt to go halfway (thats a retic) LOL.
Your a veritable font of info Hix!

WOW and Wow, that is such a great photo not so great for the guy it ate but still good picture. I think its true, look at that Anaconda that ate the Crocodile and it split in 2, they do eat things sometimes that they shouldnt be able to fit in.

[peterescue]

it was a retic and it ate an alligator. It appeared to have had its head shot off.
The pics in this thread are not a series but three diifferent occasions in time and the photos have merely been put in a semblance of order to convey a story. this is called editing. Its what they do in films. You may remember the Civil War documentary from few years ago. They did the same thing there only much better of course. Not all the photos were taken in the same spot or time but used to convery the story.
Every picture tells a thousand lies.

you tell me Luke, I know your not an idiot. There is no man in the first group of pics and the second single one. The man is in the last sequence.

I think you'll find it was a burmese that ate the alligator.

[peterescue]

probably, anyway, ate alligator in Florida, became deceased, probably third party involved at this point, bloated, burst.

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

I would have thought tje digestive juices would have rippened him up a bit more than in the pic

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.
