What If Biggest Snake Ever Swallowed You Whole

warning monster ahead not the best thing to see written on an old wooden sign at an entrance to a rainforest you just ran into you're a professional treasure hunter and wildlife explorer right now you're being chased by some mean looking poachers but those guys are amateurs you dart left hide then run again works every time why were those guys shouting so much back to business for several years now you've been on a quest for a pirate's chest inside a 300 year old royal medallion and according to this old map the chest is somewhere here in this jungle chirping birds hungry bugs screaming monkeys hopefully nothing too hungry you walk to the river and freeze suddenly total silence not a single sound anywhere except the river right then the silence is broken something's definitely sneaking up behind you you turn around and see a long thick snake's body you raise your head slowly two huge fangs are hanging out right above your eyes and a long forked tongue is gently licking your nose on the other end of the tongue is a deep dark mouth looks like a black hole you'd fit in there no problem you take a step back and stumble over a rock you fall that's the last thing you remember then darkness looks like you'll be out for a while time to find out what monster you just met meet titanoboa the largest snake that ever lived on earth and the largest land vertebrate after the dinosaurs it's 42 feet long that's like seven adults or more than half a subway car and it could weigh up to one and a half tons all modern pythons and anacondas are descendants of this ancient reptile that lived 60 million years ago except for this one apparently this snake isn't venomous but it uses its long fangs to grab food and its jaw is built for business imagine an empty car being crushed by the brooklyn bridge that's what it feels like to be a titanic boa's afternoon snack back to you the titanoboa was about to take a closer look at you but you fell and passed out the huge snake wasn't expecting its lunch to be quite so willing it sniffs your body looks it up and down you're not a threat so it doesn't need to squeeze you before the snake opens its wide mouth and begins to swallow snakes have a special jaw divided into several parts they are connected by ligaments and muscles so snakes can open their mouth up wide like motorbike wide but today titanaboa doesn't need to try so hard gulp titanoboas use their huge fangs to push food down their throats while it's swallowing titanoboa likes to use saliva to grease up its lunch and make it more slippery much easier to swallow bit by bit you disappear from view your clothes are soaking wet at this point a few minutes later you've disappeared from view and the snake looks really fat and that's when you wake up so how do we know what would happen some guy in a full body protective suit actually tried to get inside an anaconda on purpose darkness you open your eyes and take a deep breath an unpleasant liquid gets in your mouth a bit and you cough it's hard to scratch your itchy nose you're squeezed in from all sides titanoboa has a super muscley throat at first you panic what happened where are you you scream but no sound it doesn't exactly smell great in there and that's when you realize where you are you can't see daylight anymore uh-oh then you feel a weird wiggling side to side titanoboas on the move a python can digest its lunch in a matter of weeks it all depends on the size of the food this titanoboa just ate a relatively small snack shouldn't take it more than a few hours but there is some good news since you're not that big you have at least a bit of space to wriggle around in you reach into your pants pocket your clothes your hands they're soaking wet nasty of course everything else you brought with you is soaked also your map matches granola bar also there's not that much air inside a massive snake you need to conserve oxygen finally you pull out your waterproof flashlight it still works looks like a tiny red room no doors no windows then it hits you your phone you can just reach it the screen's cracked but it still works but you've only got four percent battery and there's no signal you think about the signal flare strapped to your ankle the ones you use to light up a dark cave and stuff but you can't reach it you put all your strength into bending your knees but you just can't suddenly you notice that you've stopped moving snakes like to crawl to a safe resting place after eating a large meal that's when it starts releasing more enzymes to help it digest its prize you've got one shot to reach the flare you need to relax your whole body you stop moving and start to breathe slowly you feel the walls around you start to relax too you have one second to bend down and reach for the flare you go for it your hand slides down your leg past the knee almost there you reach your ankle but there's nothing there it must have come loose while you were running through the rain forest a few hours pass you're well inside titanoboa's stomach snakes have powerful enzymes that can digest all parts of an animal so it wouldn't have problems dealing with clothes and shoes you feel around with your hands maybe you can find something to help you a bone from a previous meal anything your fingers graze over something a hard round object you manage to get the flashlight on it no way it's the royal medallion you've been hunting for this titanic boa must be way older than you thought must have had a tasty pirate snack about 300 years ago how did this snake survive so long good diet plenty of exercise there's no chance of escape you decide to write a final message on your phone maybe someone will find it after this whole thing is over you write that you love your family and have lived a happy life full of adventures you start to cry not out of sadness well a little bit but mostly because the enzymes are stinging your eyes it's done you put your phone back in your pocket and clutch the medallion tight you found it how awesome are you right now you close your eyes and start feeling kind of sleepy then your phone buzzes someone sent you a text that means you finally got a signal you call for help and tell them you've been swallowed by a huge snake you're saved but they don't believe you and hang up just another prankster you call back but your battery's done for a moment later the snake begins to move again you hear strange noises coming from outside what's going on you can feel the snake's muscles tense up like it's getting ready to make a dash for it a few seconds pass and then the snake suddenly relaxes you hear human voices you try to shout but you're inside a snake so like wham a human hand grabs your head another hand grabs you by the shoulder and starts to pull someone came for you you pass through the throat and after a couple of minutes the darkness disappears and sunlight hits your eyes you're saved why did you run away from us we were trying to warn you whoa that guy looks real familiar oh it's that guy who was chasing you earlier turns out he wasn't a poacher he was a local guide apparently locals are always pulling lost tourists out of titanic boa's stomach they usually just give the snakes something to make it sleepy then pull pull pull you hug your saviors and thank them for their help you're never going back to that rainforest that's for sure a smile spreads over your face and you reach into your pocket to feel that sweet gold medallion no it must have fallen out that means it's still stuck in the snake's stomach you look at the rescuers and ask you mind if i pop back in there real quick
