《国家地理杂志: 超级大蛇》

    人类对蛇这种动物并无好感，它更是邪恶的象征。蛇神出鬼没，部份种类更是力大无穷，令人既恶且怕。自古以来，蛇是各种故事传说的

素材；在现代，网上留传的蛇吞人景象同样骇人。究竟哪些是传闻，哪些是事实？电脑动画、资料片段再加上真实事件重组，让我们一同对超

级大蛇作出深入剖析。大蛇专家Maria Munoz和我们一同进入委内瑞拉，为绿蟒的挤压力量作出有史以来的测试。他们发现，原来这些捕猎者的

致命之处，在于施压令猎物的血液停止流动，而并非令它窒息；压力之大相等于把一辆校巴放置在人的胸口之上。

They slither through our nightmares and prey upon our imagination - giant serpents seem ready to swallow us whole. But are the myths and legends true? Can a snake actually swallow a human being? With unprecedented science reaching from the Asian jungles to the swamps of South America, we test the limits of these reptilian behemoths worthy of awe - and admiration.

Join our mega-snake expert, Maria Munoz, as she bravely ventures into murky waters to capture some of these giant predators. She knows the terrain, and she knows the dangers, but above all, she knows that in the world of the monster snakes...you are always in harm's way.

Maria has joined forces with a leading experts on constriction in Venezuela, to test, for the very first time, the massive squeeze strength of one of biggest constrictors on the planet... the green anaconda. With startling results, we find that these massive predators kill not by asphyxiation, but by delivering a crushing pressure to the victim's body that equates to the weight of a school bus resting on a human chest, compressing the heart and stopping blood flow.

Gruesome internet photos of humans in the jaws of giant snakes will be analyzed.  Could they be true?  With striking real life footage from around the world, dramatic reconstructions and stunning CGI, the true power of these serpents will be revealed. We will peel back the layers of these monstrous constrictors to separate fact from fiction: how they slither, how they swallow, how they squeeze.
