Discovery Claims It Will Show a Man Being "Eaten Alive" By an Anaconda

Posted by samzenpus on Wednesday November 5, 2014 @11:10PM from the ratings-war-has-begun dept.

An anonymous reader writes Have you ever wished that you could watch a man be eaten alive by an anaconda from the comfort of your own home? The Discovery Channel is betting that the answer is yes with their upcoming special, Eaten Alive. The channel says wildlife filmmaker Paul Rosolie will don a custom-built snake-proof suit, and go inside a live anaconda. They've even released a teaser. It's unclear what scientific conundrum will be solved in the process of feeding Paul to the snake, or how he plans to get out.

There is no way for the Anaconda to survive this. There is no good research that can come from actions like these and the Discovery channel has really reached a new low. Used to love hard-facts documentary channels but now it's just hype and reality tv rubbish.

  Yes, you are correct, and everyone involved in this is an asshole.
