The Ohiocondas here are very slow in the winter, it"s 11 degrees out there right now! They speed up in the summer though, and that is when I start packeing my knife everwhere I go so I can split them form a hole to appetite. The Ohiocondas are so big that they try to double you up and swallow you from the middle which give you a little more time to cut off their head
Everyone thinks this is a joke? The joke will be on ya'll when this happens if ya'll ever leave the house from your warm, down comforters and herbal tea and actually get out in the wild.
Frankly I don't care whether you believe it or not. I do know that I am prepared for this event if I ever do fall asleep and wake to a giant Anaconda looking at me for dinner.
Blade we have no doubt that you are the udisputed expert on anacondas, and just by the fact that you let them half eat you before you wake up and split tha snake wide open, lets us know that you are very confident in your anaconda survival skils.
You are our Bear Grylls of anacondadom.............did I spell that right????
Drop the "tude" Dude. Anytime you wanna go head to head out there in a survival test, name it!
So how does that work? Loser dies?

You know, generally when an article, antidote, or instructions are a obvious copy and paste from someone/ where else, the thread starts with.....
"I saw this", ....or" found this by so and so, thought I would pass it along"......credit should be given as much as possible to the original source.
Kinda tough, I realize, as there have only been about 7 or 8 original thoughts since the "copy and paste" was invented about 1993 or so.
I'm done, not impressed, joke or not.....and as far as survival scenarios......Good luck with that..........

Yep!
Like Crash said...
1st Anaconda: Look! A sleeping camper! Let's eat him!"
2nd Anaconda: "What? Are you kidding? Just look at that big badasss knife he has!"
1st Anaconda: "That's okay, we'll use his knife to pick our fangs with after we're done...you take the head, I'll take the feet!"
2nd Anaconda: "Hmmm, sounds like a plan!
p.s.: BTW, no anacondas here in Illinois...just cottonmouths and the like, you know, the poison kind?

I agree with hunter on this Blade, if you copy and paste it is best to inform that because with Google it takes only a few minutes to find what you found. Besides, a lot of stuff found on the net is false. Looking into the anaconda thing out of curiosity by using reliable searches like National Geographic and such, tells me anacondas spend a lot of their time in water and they do their hunting by waiting for pray to come drink by the waters edge. There are many kinds of constrictor snakes, but non of them that I have seen in my search chases their pray, they all wait for the pray to come to them. They always constrict their pray, so if an anaconda large enough to swallow a man gets a hold of you and starts to constrict you, it will crush your bones and there is no chance you will be able to breath from the pressure. If you wait an hour before you kill it you will be long dead before that hour is up.

^Even video' where people feed their pet snakes dead rats, the constrictor still constricts the dead rats... I don't know but I assume by constricting the dead rats it is breaking the bones making it more easy to swallow and for the bones to "exit" the snake

Hey man, you would undoubtedly win. I don't have a knife as long as my leg, I don't let anacondas half swallow me, and I can't carve a tree house with my small knife. I just like to go to the woods and enjoy the outdoors when and if I get time.
I am no Bear Gryls, and I do not compete with other survivors, but I'll tell you one thing, never underestimate the old guys and especially the ones you don't know!
Who has the "tude"? Seems to be you. A bit defensive aren't you? Ok, I'll challenge you to -40 survival test. *throwing down glove...

HHHMMM, since there are no anacondas in Alaska would this method hold true for a Bear chewing on your gizzard ? Maybe that can be part of the challenge, " let a Bear chew on ya for an hour before stabbing it , Blade your the expert please Go First and let us know how it went.
I Wonder Who was the first person to look at a cow and say, "I think I'll squeeze these dangly things here, and drink what ever comes out?"
Lol. Yea, after you Blade. Unfortunately bears are/should be hibernating right now. But how about moose? I'd do a -40 moose challenge. They don't eat you but they can stomp you dead. I have several hanging around this winter so come on up and we'll hang out till we find one.
