I know that the boa pic and the black and yellow banded king snake is. The boa died. IIRC, both incidents have the same reason. Essentially both were fed in an enclosure too small for them. They were fed and still in feed mode when their perhaps touched their tails to their face and tried to eat themselves. The king snake's owner saw it fairly quickly and rushed him to a vet that was able to extract the lower part of the animal out of it's mouth. The boa's owner, however, didn't discover his until the next morning after feeding. By then it had died, more than likely due to the digestive system had begun to digest itself.
Knowing those two are real, the others probably are. However, I think it's a rare occurrence.
The brace one is photochopped, btw
