I would say the pic looks doctored. Who do you know that could hold up a huge BP like that with two fingers? Look at the ease in which this guy is holding a 10+ pound ball? Looks fake to me. Good work though..............

Mikee buddy!

You are underestimating my power, lots of strengh behind that belly you know!

Tell me this, how can a computor nerd guy like me that spend 1/2 hour trying to figuring out how to post the pic be able to doctor a picture....

Anyway, the snake belongs to a good friend and many on here out east have seen this beast in the flesh...

Did I show you the picture of my 30 lbs walleye I caught this year, really Mikee, a 30 pounder....

I can carry grocery bags that weigh about 20 pounds with one or two fingers, and rock climbers only use their fingers and feet to climb and that's all of their weight they have to move, so why would someone not be able to do that with a big bp?

My guess is 6'5" and 8 pounds.

Marc, love to see a pic of that 30 pound walleye too! If that is a real, undoctored pic, I would have to say it is a close second to a picture of Jared Horenstein and his super huge ball. It's floating around here somewhere.......
P.S. That's a mighty tiny head for such a monster snake. Also, if you posess that much strength from your gut, then I'm going to enter the 'World's Strongman Competition' next year, I'm a shoe-in!

That pic is definitely not doctored! That's my males momma! I've seen her with my own two eyes. I forget the last weight I was given on her, I think it was in and around 5600 grams?

LOL and I don't see why it would be so hard. I'm all of 5'7", 104 lbs and can easily carry those 20+ lb bags with my two fingers
