Grandmother in Indonesia swallowed alive by 22ft-long python

DNYUZ: An Indonesian woman has been eaten alive by a huge python after venturing into the jungle to collect rubber.

Horrified locals managed to catch the 22ft-long snake and cut it open – inside they found the undigested remains of the 54-year-old grandmother.

Jahrah, who like many Indonesians goes by just one name, had walked into the jungle alone in Jambi province, on the island of Sumatra, but did not return home.

Her family became worried and villagers sent search parties out into the forest.

Two days after her disappearance, they came across the huge snake, which had an enlarged stomach, resting in a clearing. more here

  1. …not too many NICE ways to die, but this would seem one of the more horrible.

    I guess I kind of agree with Uncle Al that it’s nice for her family that she wasn’t converted to snake shit when found, but being dead I seriously doubt SHE cares, and given that it’s only a matter of time till she’s converted to WORM shit, at the end of the day it would scarcely seem to matter.

  2. …everything is a matter of degree.

    In South America there’s a smaller snake called a fer-de-lance that likes to hang quietly from low tree branches until you walk under them, at which time it hits you with double barrels of hemotoxic venom, quickly breaking down your capillaries and causing massive internal hemorrhage.

    No way this guy can swallow you, not whole at any rate, or even a significant portion of you.

    But you’ll be just as dead, and live long enough to know you’re going to die horribly.

    Better? I suppose, if you’re the funeral director.

    But as victim…the outcome at the part where you leave this story is pretty much the same…

  3. Yes but, it could have been much worse if she wasn’t vaccinated.
    Hey, that’s as good or better than what the left claims about people that everyone thinks is healthy dropping dead.

  4. python does what pythons do … why kill it?
    would we kill a bear for eating a deer?

    animals (excluding primates) kill for survival

    only humans (& gorillas, chimps, baboons, etc.) kill for motive (& the motive is always pleasure in one form or another)
