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.


stupid show, I don't ever recall seeing any type of constricting snake ever eating it's prey alive. They constrict it till it's dead, then swallow it so it doesn't get harmed while the prey fights to get out.

Seems like a desperate ploy for ratings.

It was playing in my head too letterboy.

This guy is stupid. Never mind the nightmares for the rest of your life. I guess he'll do something to make the snake vomit him up.
Or he'll live 3,000 years as god-emperor of the known universe.

I had that in my head when I was looking for a title.

Apparently he's supposed to have some kind of a rope attached to the suit. The problem is, these snakes teeth face backwards so they're going to have to pry it's jaws open wide enough for him to get out.

He could always just carry a shotgun with him when he gets swallowed and then simply blast his way out afterwards.

You know, kind of like what Tommy Lee Jones did in the first "Men In Black" film.

I really hope he just croaks or something in the process and the snake turns out fine. I don't think it's physically possible to be more stupid, and it's sad that this level of stupid is rewarded.

Other than snakes killing their prey first, no snake is big enought to swallow a fully developed adult human.

I had a snake get 2/3 swallowed by another snake that wasn't supposed to be a cannibalistic species.

I got the bigger snake to regurgitate the smaller one and it was alive. It had been swallowed for maybe 5 minutes at most, I rinsed the snake off thoroughly, and 2 days later it died because the stomach acid did something that made it's skin just die off or something.

Snake stomach acid is really caustic to be able to process bone, hair, etc.

That guy is going to need serious protection.

I can't imagine that ever happening with large prey but I had pythons that occasionally I'd have to resort to feeding a bunch of mice to if rats were unavailable and they'd just snap them right up, fully alive.
