This isn't really a joke... Getting eaten by massive snakes...

Arachnaeoccult · 12-22-15, 02:12 PM

Who here knows what it might be like to get eaten by a snake the same way retics eat indigenous tribespeople in the wilder parts of the globe?

What kind of way to die is that? HOW do you do? What if the snake doesn't kill you before you start 'going down'?

1. Assuming this actually happens, the person is dead, therefore cannot share their accounts.
2. To my knowledge, there have been no recorded accounts of a person being eaten by a snake. And for this to even be possible, the animal would have to be the largest size attainable by that particular species. Even a 20' retic/anaconda/burm/etc would be hard pressed to swallow a person, small child excluded.

Well first you'd die, but I doubt any snake could get its mouth around adult human shoulders

Well, people who use live feeders sometimes report feeders kicking and screaming for some time after being hit by the snake, so I guess it has the potential to be quite traumatizing. In most cases you'd be dead before getting swallowed, though, so there are worse ways to die.

But as others above have pointed out; the rigid shoulder width of humans presents a problem to any would-be maneaters. When you see pictures of large snakes swallowing big, even human-sized(ish) animals, you're seeing prey without clavicles, so their shoulder area is very flexible and easily compressed.

Small children might be viable targets, but I haven't heard of any legitimate reports of a snake actually swallowing a human child. Killed, yes, but not swallowed.

Comparatively speaking though, it's not a bad way to go out. I hear all the time about how snakes are cruel hunters, yet not taking into account that the dogs' feral ancestors, the wolves, would often times wear the prey down for hours, biting it and eating it alive until the animal bleeds out. With hyenas the process is quicker, but probably just as painful. The second, say, a zebra is on the ground, it's dinner. I've watched videos of zebras bleating out in pain for a few minutes while it's being eaten alive. Then there's centipedes, which tear their prey to ribbons. And then there's the harlequin shrimp, which will kidnap starfish and eat them alive in their lairs, going as far as forcefeeding the starfish to keep it alive for weeks while it's fed on. There's also anenome's, which have a quick but excruciatingly painful kill tactic (I know. Ever try handling one with a cut on your hand? OUCH.).

I could go on forever, but the truth is snakes have very humane methods of bringing their prey down. It might not be 100% painless, and it's probably still traumatic, but at least they usually wait for the animal to die before chewing down.

A large constrictor absolutely could kill you. If it got a good wrap around you, especially in the neck area, you'd be dead if there was no one to help you. However, it most likely wouldn't be able to swallow you. But in reality, would a constrictor try and kill you? Probably not for the reasons you stated.

I can remember a whole set of pics that looked similar, that were proven to be photo-shopped. Surprised this is not one of those! Curious to see the other real ones!
