Eleven men and an anaconda

Man Vs Anaconda
Deep in the steamy Amazonian jungle, half-hidden beneath the water’s surface, a reptile approaching 28 feet long lies in wait for prey to stray within striking distance. When the target is close enough, the colossal creature will make a grabbing lunge with its jaws before rapidly wrapping its phenomenally powerful body around the victim. With each exhalation of breath, the snake’s coils will constrict tighter, squeezing its prey so tightly that the heart cannot fill up with blood and so causing a cardiac arrest that probably kills the prey faster than the lack of oxygen.
Notwithstanding, for a variety of reasons – from scientific research to barefaced entertainment – we humans have the audacity to go grappling with these things.

The bite of the anaconda is not to be taken lightly, but the danger of constriction is the one all-encompassing risk for people handling serpents of this size. Fortunate, then, that attacks on humans are rare, as once caught in a coil it is very difficult to escape. Seemingly keen to follow us in all that we do, dogs have been recorded getting themselves in serious tangles with these legendary heavyweight wrestlers of the Amazon. The final clip is a reminder of the serpent’s muscular might.
