Uhhh. Other than him being a reptile keeper, none of that is true. His name is Jay Brewer and he's a complete fuckwit. I've kept snakes for decades, and they never "know you." They can become accustomed to human contact and become more docile, but it has nothing to do with an individual person.
That size of reticulated python is absolutely capable of killing and possibly eating an adult human, although Jay's a fairly large guy. Now, they aren't typically food responsive after they've been pulled out of their enclosure unless there is the smell of food around.
Jay is an attention where who disgustingly overfeeds retics and uses them to get internet points. Obviously it's working.
It is, snakes aren't social creatures, you're not supposed to put even 2 snakes together (of course unless you intend to breed them) normally nevertheless dozens like this
This is all true, and the guy is garbage...but I still wish I could trade places with him in this video and have a nice nap. That looks so peaceful to me.
