He he he - made me laugh !
I think it's probably some kind of constrictor, I know they get incredibly long.
I remember years ago, my brother had a copy of FHM or Nuts or some other lads mag and it had a photo of a BIG snake which had been cut open to reveal a man inside it's belly  :o May have just been a mock up - but who knows !

When I worked in Thailand A Burmese Python broke into the chicken shed.  We didn't need to work out how many hens it had swallowed there were 3 very obvious bumps in the snake as it slid away.  It was approx 15ft.

No, it's definitely not a cobra, maybe an anaconda? I used to keep snakes when I had my zoo. The last one was an albino python and he was 17 ft. long and weighed 200 pounds. Oh, I miss "Trigger" :'(. I sold him to a guy in Florida, he transported him in the backseat of his truck WITHOUT a cage!! :o That's a great story.....

I like snakes although am forbidden to keep them anymore.  I dont think I would want one that big though.   Reckon it could swallow Hilary whole. :pig:
