A giant female reticulated python (Malayopython reticulatus) discovered in the Maros region of Sulawesi, Indonesia, in late 2025 is believed to be the longest wild snake to be formally measured, with evidence seen by GWR confirming a length of 7.22 m (23 ft 8 in) from head to tail tip on 18 January.

This means that if placed across a standard FIFA goal, this prodigious python would occupy essentially the entire width from post to post. Alternatively, it is around the length of six-and-a-half shopping carts/trolleys in a row.

Too beaucoup!

Big-ass snake but I can’t relate to FIFA goal post measurements. :dunno:

I guess at Audi that would be about $1.65 worth of shopping carts. ;)

Nope nope nope
 
I remember the day my friend learned that his 19-foot python wasn't venomous.

He was crushed.
