I just watched a documentary on giant snakes and I'm curious...

Im a 5 foot 8 inch guy, pretty thin. My friend and I were watching this thing on giant snakes, and he said one could eat me. I laughed and told him he was an idiot. So my question is this, so I can prove him wrong:

If a snake DID manage to start eating me, what’s the last part of my body that would pass through it’s mouth before it had to stop, presuming it started at my head? As far as my waist? Knees even?

Answer #1

depend upon the snake, it actually could swallow you whole… all the way… Snakes expand a lot more than you’d expect. I’ve seen on discovery channel snakes eating things like deer and buffalo, whole!

Answer #2

you cant prove him wrong there have been humans that have been found inside snakes before …ususally very large anacondas, and usually adaults some even eat other snakes…almost as long as there own body so theyll have no trouble eating a person, especially if its a very big snake lots of giant abimals have been found in them too like buffalos the snake wont stop swallowing anything unless it cant get it all down it will attempt to re-gurgitate its prey or it will just eat it anyway and probably burst open later on because its body cant expand to that big

Answer #3

Answer #4
