OK try this one on for size. I've posted this before and EVERYONE has a " Big snake" story...but I have pictures...how about an Eastern Diamondback that went 7'3" and had a 19" girth? My best pard and I got it right after high school, a loooong time ago in a galaxy far far away ...
For point of reference my pard was 6 feet tall and weighed in just under #200
Coming up on that on would make the hair on the back of your neck stand up. Nightmares are made of such.
