Well, I guess I'm cocky and ignorant...by your opinion. I'm also perfectly able to handle a boa larger than 5-6 foot and even remove the "freakishly strong" five footer all by myself (as any competent handler can).
Thousands of people will view this thread....some of them will be knowledgeable enough to roll their eyes, but the kids will spread this crap as fact. The adults who are fearful of snakes and against this hobby may just use this crap to further their goal. It only takes one person to s t r e t c h reality to fuel the ignorant.
