HAHAHA BS on that one. Look how he is holding that thing out in front of him 10ft? no way. 120#??? Not a chance

If that snake is 10 ft, 120 lbs then that dude holding it is a MAN. He'd have to be real strong and stand about 8 ft tall. :lol:
I killed one in Bankhead forest a few years back that was a big one. Draped across the hood of a CJ7 it hung over the front fenders on both sides. It was a little over 6 ft long. It had 14 rattles and a button which I still have.

If it was 10ft it was killed near a Nuclear plant somewhere. And should have super snake powers with hint of a neon green color.

A 10 foot rattle snake would have to be some kind of record too. Plus 120 lbs! Dude would be struggling to hold that thing if it was in his arms, let alone at the end of a pole. A normal sized chick is 120lbs. Not too many folks can hold that up using a pole. I know I can but... :D

i wish they wouldn't have killed that dude.......i dunno, but they way it's described "he never rattled or curled up, just took off for the woods...." just seems wrong to me.

plus the photo makes even white trash look bad......

I agree, but you will never get past the "its a snake lets kill it" mentality. Sounds like the snake was minding his own business and Bubba and the crew wanted to kill it so they could show it off.

I guess that makes me one of them PETA members too.

It's definitely photo shopped – and not very well I might add. The whole body was cloned to make it look bigger. Notice how there are two tails????

Agreed. It would be one thing if he did something with the skin or got it stuffed. But just killing it. Meh. I may not have done it.
