The current record is 'Baby' the burmese at 18ft 10 inches. I don't myself necessarily believe she was the biggest ever but unfortuantely due to her wrongly being believed to be 27ft any pontential large snake will no doubt not have come forward i.e. if you had a 19ft burmese but thought the record was 27ft you wouldnt think yours was that big but in fact your would have been 2 inches bigger than the so called record holder. Most snakes are exaggarated and most burmses dont get over 16 ft etc. Most retics struggle to get over 18ft 10 inches so it would take a very rare burmese to genuinley beat 'Baby's' real lenght of 18ft 10 inches. 'Baby' the burmese ws also quoted as over 400lbs yet she only had a 27 inch girth. Any giant snake owner can tell you a 400lbs snakes at 18ft 10 inches would have a girth waayyyyyy beyond 27 inches. MY 18ft 7 inch retic has a 22 inch girth and is no where near 200lbs never mind 400lbs.
