lol no he wasnt, he had just beenput away and he always gets grumpy at this stage, and in that pic he was only 3ft and 6 months ole lololol

thats my boy lol typical grumpy bloke

Dr. Brady Barr, of National Geographic, had a show on Bite Force, where he measured the psi of many different creatures.

Here are the results of all of the animals tested:

Humans: 120 pounds of bite pressure

Domestic dogs: 320 lbs of pressure

Wild dogs: 310 lbs

Lions: 600 lbs

White sharks: 600 lbs

Hyenas: 1000 lbs

Snapping turtles: 1000 lbs

Crocodiles: 2500 lbs

I do not remember the exact number that a snake was given, but he tested boas, vipers and anacondas and the results were that the snake had more than a dog bite but less than a shark bite.

Additionally, regardless of bite pressure, anything that death rolls you after biting you and stuffs you on the bottom of the river before it eats you, deserves a whole 'nother level of respect, in my book.

Then again, if it can bite you, wrap its coils around you, squeeze you until you suffocate and then can eat you whole, head first, does not lose my respect, either!

impressive skull and the boa pic is excellent

u have met that one anna

Ja, damn, thats huge, My boa went for me the other day, and while it wasnt a FULL bite, its freaking sore, its not the puncture that hurts but more the amount of pressure exerted, its like someone throwing you with a rock on your hand.!

Hehehe I know what ypu mean but least it was only your boa. xxx
