Seems like this might be bullshit:

Man says he'll be eaten alive by anaconda - on TV

Naturalist Paul Rosolie believes "you have to go head first."

What he's referring to is shoving his head into the mouth of an anaconda, letting it swallow him, and filming the experience for a Discovery Channel special called Eaten Alive, News.com.au reports.

According to the Discovery Channel's blurb on the show, which premieres Dec. 7, the 26-year-old will enter "the belly of an anaconda in a custom-built snake-proof suit"; he's shown in a preview video wearing it with an emergency line attached to his ankle, the Independent reports.

Wildlife advocates are calling Rosolie's TV experiment cruel. "#EatenAlive is disgusting. Why put an animal under so much trauma? All for the wonder of live tv," says one miffed tweeter.

But Rosolie, a wildlife filmmaker who works with anacondas in the Amazon, says his mission is to protect the creatures. "If u know me — I would never hurt a living thing. But you'll have to watch # EatenAlive to find out how it goes down," he tweeted.

Business Insider sees that comment as an indication that maybe this is just a stunt, noting that in order to not bring harm to the snake, Rosolie would have to get out of it without cutting it open, an "improbable" feat.

Further, the site talks to a herpetologist who notes it would be tough to create a suit that could withstand the pressure of being inside the snake and facilitate breathing. It's more "nonsense" from the channel, concludes BI.

What a pussy! FU dude, that's 2 hour I won't get back.

Coward. I knew he wouldn't go through with it.

I want two hours out of my Sunday night back.

What happened?

**TrebMaxx** · 12-07-2014, 10:02 PM

He would be banned on CP for fake thread tittle. Discovery should ban him.

Iconic · 12-07-2014, 10:02 PM

2 hour buildup to see a snake wrap around a man for five minutes.

**** YOU DISCOVERY!

ChiefsChoke010414 · 12-07-2014, 10:03 PM

Snake would have eaten him if he wasn't wearing that gigantic metal helmet. Of course it isn't going to eat a gigantic metal object. LOL.

MeatRock · 12-07-2014, 10:04 PM

Don't air the shit unless the ****er gets ate. Dammit.

Mr_Tomahawk · 12-07-2014, 10:04 PM

Wasn't going to happen anyways.

Its been documented that even a very large Green Anaconda would not be able to get past the shoulders of an average man.

Now if they did this experiment with a child...things could get interesting...

Any kid want to volunteer?

Does the ref who officiated the Chiefs game today have any children?

**morphius** · 12-07-2014, 10:06 PM

LOL! I didn't watch, but Discovery should take a huge hit for that level of fail. I don't believe it was advertised as watch a man try to be eaten by a snake.

I saw some little ankle bitters today at the mall whilst being forced to Christmas shop that I would nominate.

I would think a crocodile's head is more edible than a metal helmet.

Experts believe this to be true, but i don't think it's been documented to be true.
