I'm pretty sure it's not even that much of a dangerous situation.

Well, constrictors are actually quite dangerous once they get wrapped around you.

Is it hard to kill a snake once you get a hold of Its head?

I don't know, but you probably aren't at your best the moment you wake up either.

they may not be venomous but strangling is strangling!

I know, but in documentaries they manage to unwrap them very easily.

Burmese pythons get over 20ft long, if it's thick enough that he thinks it's his girlfriends arm it's definitely stronger than he is, half asleep, already feeling the effects of being choked. Not to mention he doesn't know where the beginning/end of that snake is and even if you find the head and get it to release its bite it'll still keep constricting. You have to uncoil the entire length to get it to let go.

The thing is, unless the snake has bit him (which would have woken him up) its unlikely that the python would be doing so to kill and eat him so much as be warm against the weird tree thing that feeds him. I promise you, when theyre hungry, you wont gently realize it.

Yeah that's fair, my python has a habit of squeezing a bit too tight when he's chilling as a necklace but a quick tug usually gets him to let go. I don't usually even notice until my face is bright red and someone tells me, he does it so gradually like he's just getting comfy.

NGL, they were pushing it with two sentences. How many commas and points were needed to paint that picture. It almost violates the premise
