I’m outraged that the hype said that he would be eaten alive, and never meant it. The promoters deliberately lied.

When something is eaten, it is destroyed and assimilated into the body of the eater.

Words have meanings, except to headline writers and advertising executives.

The snake only ate his head? Is that what happened to Obama?

I’m outraged our culture has become so debased that people are outraged by something that wouldn’t even pass as a sideshow act in the vaudeville era is considered entertainment.

Hidden Nugget: Time Magazine has been reduced to covering circus side-show freaks.

Funny! I actually watched the program but I never expected to see him eaten alive.

Whorealdo set the bar pretty low when he did his Al Capone vault trickeroo. Ever since its been OK to play like Carbonaro in documentaries.

The only redeeming value of the “anaconda trickery” was we got to see some parts of the Amazon in Peru.

Bah!... I prefer stories of debauchery like gang rapes at universities!

I agree. Discovery produces mermaids. History Channel has proven over and over again that the ancient Gods were really aliens who ruled over the Earth for thousands of years, that Atlantis was real and somewhere off the coast of Cuba and that ghosts inhabit pretty much every run down house in America. So why can’t Eaten Alive be real too?????

That is the most succinct and accurate synopsis of those cable cable channels that I've seen...bravo sir!

I caught the program just at the point where he began demanding to be rescued. The swallowing motion was torqueing his arm and he became afraid it would break.

Well, Jeez Louise! Besides widening its mouth and dislocating its jaw, how did these people think an anaconda processes such large prey? It compresses the body by snapping limbs and crushing bone to compact and align it so it can be swallowed. Armored suit not withstanding, lack of planning for that happening shows a serious lack of research.

Since anacondas occasionally die in this process, the possibility existed that the anaconda would spit him out if the armored suit prevented compaction to suitable diameter.

This is the most blatant case of false advertising since my suit against the movie The Neverending Story.

They needed a bigger snake to swallow that idiot.

ROTFLMAO!!! The best of the tweets:

Calling it #EatenAlive is like having a show on the Food Network about cooking a turkey and all they do after 2 hours is preheat the oven.

The funniest thing about the whole fiasco is that the Discovery Channel double domes didn't realize anacondas always squeeze heir prey to death before eating it. The human star taped out because the big hug was killing him, meaning he never got the chance to be swallowed.

I went to college with a Nigerian student who was from a rural village. He told me that a test of manhood there is to go out into the bush, find a python, wiggle one’s foot like a small animal until the python strikes and swallows the leg up to the crotch.

I asked him if he had done this and he said,”no, I’m not crazy.”
