Have to agree most big burms are difficult to work with due to size, not attitude. Any snake pushing 100 pounds requires strength and skill, mixed with varying amounts of luck from time to time. In our experience so far, it has been the retics and rocks that were troublesome due to attitude, combined with size and strength. Often it has been better to outsmart them into a catch box for hands free contact. When we do need to get our hands on them, we work with our biggest, strongest unafraid friend to secure the snake. Three people can manage, but quickly get tired. More people would likely only be in the way, although it would be good to have a "stunt double" to jump in when things go snakey
