55FT Snake Found in Malaysia
http://www.24x7funonline.com/2011/09/55-ft-snake-found-in-malaysia.html
It was said that two gigantic boas were found by workers clearing a forest for a new road. Apparently they woke up the snakes by trying to bulldoze a large mountain of earth. On the third dig one of the workers found blood in the soil. When they dug deeper they found the barely alive 55ft boa. When they came back after getting some help the large snake had died. The operator of the bulldozer was so sick that he couldn't even stand up. It was said that the digger was so tramatized that he was sent in an ambulance and later died of a heart attack. "The dead snake was 55ft (16.7m) long, weighed 300kg and was estimated to be 140 years old".
Critique: I wish their was more detail in the post about the snake, though the picture was great to see. I also wish that this article had some type of resource showing that the snake was not fake. All in all it seemed very realistic. The picture didn't look photoshopped in any way.
Impact: What to say.. I believe that this digger had it coming to him, he was destroying the snakes home and precious land for other animals just for a dumb road that they didn't need. On top of that he killed one of these beautiful snakes. Of course he didn't know any better and i'm not going to say that he deserved to die but mother nature works in mysterious ways. I wish they could of not killed the snake and of taken their pictures and left the snake alone. Now it's probably being examined and such for reasearch because this snake is ginormous. All I can say is K-A-R-M-A!

I must say this is very interesting. i wonder if the digger was traumatised because he killed the snake or the fact that it was a very large snake and the other one had dissapeared (and perhaps was out for revenge). My uncle is a proffesional photoshopper. i sent him the link and when he replies i will tell you what he thinks. in the mean time, I think that it is very cool, and kinda creepy at the same time.
ReplyDeletehe says (in response to the question "does this look shopped to you?") "Could be. I have only known anacondas to get to that size. Tough call. my best guess is that it is real. I can't say for sure though."
