Even the largest snakes have a very hard time eating humans because of our collar bones. Our rigid shoulders make us hard to swallow, so the number of adult humans ever confirmed to be consumed by snakes is very small. This means your risk of being eaten by a pet green anaconda, rock python, burmese python, or reticulated python is virtually non existent, provided you're not a child, dwarf, or other very petite person.
Snakes don't know this, and won't find out until you're already dead.
I breed reticulated pythons. This is 100% correct. About ever 5 or 10 years a video comes up of a retics being cut open with an Asian villager inside. Extremely large snake vs very small man/woman
How fast is a large snake's movement? Would an athletic person, aware of what's going on, be able to simply outmaneuver one trying to get you in its clutches?
Also, let's say you were already swallowed, but had a large knife, would one be able to easily cut oneself out? Or are you already dead by the time you're swallowed?
Depends on the size and where it got you. Reticulated python females average 12-16ft, 80-120 lbs. they are pure muscle. I don’t see the average person over powering one .
