Re: True length of "record" giant pythons.
The python biting the fence - If I remember correctly, the snake (an African rock python) slithered into a fenced-in area in South Africa where there was sheep or goats, swallowed one, and tried to come out the same way. Unfortunately for the snake, its distended belly touched the electric fence, which it apparently struck in retaliation, but of course, died.
I think I know which photo you're referring to with the human inside the snake. There's a handful of them floating out there, and most were hoaxes; i.e. people posing inside the guts of a killed snake for publicity.
