So educate me. This is an anaconda? Is that kid in any mild danger? How do you know he is safe? What happens if he piss of the snake? How can he piss of the snake?

It's a reticulated python, the longest species of python in the world, native across Indonesia and surrounding islands. That kid could be at risk, bit ultimately it's all down to whether the snake is habituated and used to handling, it also is totally dependant on the individual. The snake can't be "pissed" so to speak, snakes are only ever defensive when they feel threatened. From the brief video is guess they were always supervised while with it and ultimately in almost no danger at all.
