dddave Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 A number of years ago, a snake about the same size wrapped itself around the rear axel of a Baht Bus parked on 2nd rd. by Mike Mall. They had to jack the rear of the truck way up and drug the snake to make it unwind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
champers Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 I think the snake might have sh*t the dog if it had got hold of it. Handy snack size for a 4 Metre python. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ThaiWai Posted June 5, 2017 Share Posted June 5, 2017 4 meters my ass. Average arm span of a man is 1.7 meters. Add another .5 meters for wrapped tail and you are just over 2 meters. This is a 4 meter snake Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
