A naturalist who created a snake-proof suit will allow himself to be swallowed alive by an anaconda for an upcoming television special.
In Eaten Alive, filmmaker Paul Rosolie intends to don the bulky suit and then willingly feed himself the Amazonian serpent, the largest of which can measure 30 feet long.
The Discovery Channel special, which won't air until December 7, has already drawn the ire of animal lovers who call the stunt an act of 'animal abuse to the highest degree.'
Not surprising, 26-year-old Rosolie disagrees.
'If u know me - I would never hurt a living thing,' Rosolie tweeted. But you'll have to watch to find out how it goes down!'
Rosolie, who's been dubbed the 'Indiana Jones of the Amazon,' specializes in the Amazon and his website bio says his experience also covers 'locations in India, Indonesia, Brazil and Peru.'
Experienced or not, some have called for Discovery to cancel Rosolie's show altogether.
A Change.org pe ion to that effect sprung up and is close to its goal of 500 signatures.
'This is animal abuse to the highest degree and absolutely disgusting, and could kill the snake - an adult green anaconda cannot fit the width of an adult man's shoulders into it's body,' reads the pe ion.
Anacondas usually eat wild pigs, deer, capybaras and caiman.
Constrictors like anacondas and pythons crush their meals to death before swallowing them. While there are many unverified accounts of the snakes killing humans, it's unlikely a full-grown man could so easily be swallowed by one of the snakes.

Terrible. That snake could die. But I have a feeling it doesn't since Discovery is willing to air it.
Because of the shake up at TLC---they no longer own footage of Honey Boo Boo's mom eating 'sketti.
Good question. Why would anybody want to do this?![]()
ing Discovery has become such a worthless network over the last 15 years. Guess they need something to fill in for child raping gun nut now that he's in prison tbh.
i thought this is about a man being in the middle of a circle twerking for a bukkake shot
Relax, it's just a gimmick to get viewers. The snake won't try to eat the dude. The terrible thing is that Discovery has become some pathetic reality tv show network.
This is the most disturbing thing ever. So he gets eaten alive. How is he going to get out of there without having the snake gutted?
Hopefully he gets his neck snapped before too long.
Unless this is a movie with Jennifer Lopez, I don't think that snake will be swallowing a human.
you guys, this sounds aweasome.
Discovery Channel "Jumping the Anaconda" for their bubba, redneck, backwoods, gun fellatin "sportsmen" viewers
But did he dieded ?
Lol another "Al Capone's Vault" show where nothing happens.
This is one of the nuttiest stunts I ever heard of.
While you're at it, how about letting a great white eat you too?

Discovery is desperate tmz kind of
I call fake on the idea. If he's an animal lover, how does he get back out without killing the snake?
If he actually does it, I hope the snake kills him. It would serve him right.
Darwin award anyone?
I can't believe people actually think there is any chance the snake eats him.
Snake could probably swallow DPG, tbh.
Until it got around the groin area. Probably choke at that point..
Franklin now loves you.
