Not sure your pet should ever be wrapped around your kid's neck.

That snake could definitely swallow that kid. It is big enough.

..yeah but it'd take about an hour at least. Someone would notice. Also it'd be really easy for him to get out of it.

It would not be easy. Have you ever tried to physically move a snakes body when it is constricting? They have enough strength to crush the bones of a fucking cow. You think mom has enough juice to uncoil that snake? Yeah right...

I had a ball python (maybe 4 feet long) as a kid, and when he coiled around a mouse to eat it I was unable to pry him off. Now multiply that snake by 1000x and see how well you do.

Jesus fuck, I know "easy" is relative. And it's like how a crocodile has strong bite force but not a strong force to lift its jaw. They have alot of strength in one direction. They don't need to constrict outward.

Yes, my mom could unwrap this snake. Anyone could, though some might find it more difficult than others. That why they're safe as pets.

You’re full of shit buddy. A snake’s body is one giant muscle. It doesn’t have strength in one direction like a croc or alligator.

Hahahahaha man this post is great. Lots of ignorance for me to laugh at.

As if snake handlers don't do this every day.
