00:00:08the anaconda is the world’s largest
00:00:11snake and among the most deadly an
00:00:19anaconda can swallow whole an animal the
00:00:24size of an average dog
00:00:26it kills by wrapping itself around its
00:00:30prey tightening its grip until its
00:00:33victim can no longer breathe
00:00:37herpetologist paces rebus studies these
00:00:40fearsome creatures for a living most of
00:00:45the time he manages to escape their
00:00:47wrath but today his luck runs out unable
00:00:57to escape the Anaconda Strikes Back it
00:01:01sinks its fangs deep into a Seuss’s
00:01:03flesh his survival depends on extricate
00:01:08in his hand
00:01:11what would you do in this situation
00:01:14should you pull your hands straight out
00:01:16at the snake’s mouth push your hand
00:01:18further down the snakes throat or put
00:01:22the snake in the eyes the answer is B
00:01:27push your hand further down the snakes
00:01:29throat poking it in the eyes won’t make
00:01:36it let go
00:01:37more likely a good poke will only make
00:01:40it dive into the water taking you with
00:01:42it pulling your hand straight out of the
00:01:47snake’s mouth actually pushes the teeth
00:01:49deeper into the flesh
00:01:51that’s because anacondas teeth bend
00:01:53backwards
00:01:56to safely extract yourself from the
00:01:59Anaconda you have to actually push
00:02:01deeper into the mouth and off the teeth
00:02:09and that’s how you survive an anaconda
