Do you still remember the "snake swallows man" pictures  

These are the infamous photos that spreads around the web during year 2000, they really look shocking but it was confirmed to be fake. The snake actually swallowed a crocodile.

I have never seen these photos. When searching them online I found in Wikipedia the case of a 4.5m python who tried to eat a 13 years old kid in South Africa in 1979 :

An anaconda can be 10 to 15 m tall, so I believe it can eat an human.
Have you a link to the photos of your human eater ?

I think I should cancel all my plans of trying to do camping alone.I heard an urban legend before, about gigantic snake but I think I'm going to save it for the future. http://weirdpicturearchiv...

Thanks Albert. You have also pythons in your country, I think. They have not to be so large to scare me ! I know a "rural" legend with snakes and campers : I will start a discussion for your enjoyment !

The Whole South east Asia have lots of reticulated Pythons,they grew up to 30 feet long,

I think I will avoid to do camping too in your country, Albert ! Or only in an hotel room in a town center .

I think I would go campaign with professional hikers and campers since they have the knowledge and skills for survival.

To test that, I will wait and see if you have passed your survival test .

I think if i'm on the middle of the jungle I will always bring a machete with me, or maybe razor claws to defend my self from pythons. If I get to kill a pythons, there will be lunch on the camp.

Just in case you don't meet a python, I think that it will be prudent to bring with you some canned food.

I love canned tuna with tomato sauce,belle pepper and green peace.

The original claims of that picture is that its from the Amazon forest and its an Anaconda but some people tried to use the picture and say that it was in the Philippines.Since Native Brazilians and Filipinos looks the same its hard to declare were the pictures really originates.

but it was even featured in some shows here... i just hear about it last week. hehe

but then again, i don't know how true it was but its usually included in some discussions about snakes...

That was interesting, I think what the internet claimed to be false is the statements that it was in Brazil. Maybe it did really happen in The Philippines since we have a lot of reticulated Pythons and there was a Pinoy Urban legend about a python which I will share in the future.

maybe its true, well all this time i am convinced that that really happens in Mindoro but after seeing the photos and some comments there, it makes me think...but if its not true, why is it being included in some tv programs even if it happens long time ago...hmmm

what's urban legend was that? let me guess...hehe was it the story about the robinson twin? something like that...hehe

The urban legend about the phyton is something I will share soon but to give you an idea for an urban legend of your own, you can make an urban legendtread about the Robinson mall legend about Alice Dixon. I think some of your followers miss you from making discussions.

I found out the picture is real but the story about it is not. Te picture was from the Philippines and not from the Amazon which have been the claims about it.

So a snake really did swallow a man just not where they proclaimed it happened. Very scary.

I don't remember pictures of the snake man story.
