This shocked me a little. I know they are the world's longest snake, but I had no clue they could actually swallow an adult human whole. Small children I know of.

This is the only fully confirmed case of a reticulated python deliberately killing and consuming an adult human as the process of retrieving the body from the python's stomach was documented by pictures and videos taken by witnesses. It happened this year.

I'm not gonna lie I didn't read the story but why in the fuck would you want to own something that's gonna get that big in the first place. You're never gonna know 100% if it's gonna want to make you into a tasty morsel..Fucking stupid LOL

Probably gave him a boner. "oh my God! It's so dangerous! What if it attacked me? Uhhhhh!"

That last part is where he ejaculated.

This was my first thought.

Any sources? Most likely a small child.

I agree, haha. This case however was near his family's palm plantation.

Looks like Allah was not with Akbar.
 
it always boggles my mind when I see people own very large snakes as pets

or even worse when they drape them around their own bodies

no that isn't an affectionate pet, that thing is sizing you up for a meal

Yeah I've always thought this idea that they haven't eaten an adult before to be silly. These things eat small deer and boar, and there are definitely people in these remote places that grow up small from a lack of nutrition.
 
I was super skeptical of this when it happened and I still am. But, some people who have a lot more experience with giant boids certainly accepted this as plausible.

Also to note, it was a wild snake not his pet.
