I saw a video of a large carpet python hanging by its tail from a tree while it killed and at a bat that flew by. The entire body was supported by about the last 18 inches of its tail. Three toed sloth's hang by their tail as do prehensile tail skinks and many primates. Look at all the TV herpetologists that grab snakes by the tip of their tails and lift them up that way. Maybe there's a snake chiropractor out there making millions.
