    Always a hot topic isn´t it? :D

    I found this article recently- it seems that pythons eating people is nothing new for the Negrito people in Philippines:

    Of course, they are relatively small people who spend lots of time in the jungle, and reticulated pythons get huge in Philippines!

    Fear or not fear, with snakes that size there's always the very real possibility of an unexpected attack D:

    And considering the woman's size I highly doubt shed survive.
    The size of the snake would defiantly be able to swallow her whole.
    Be easy enough to get past her shoulders.
    When she holds the snake up its head is just as big as hers
