it was on Real TV-they mentioned something about the cave it was in being a lair of sorts for several giant pythons and said the locals called it "The Cave of Death", or something like that? I think they measured it at 23 feet or so,then released it. I have a tape of it somewhere that was given to me.

the retic was little (for a retic) and surely wasn't 20 foot, the guy is very very very expert and never he could have problems with a snake like that, the scene was very stupid... there were animal bones and tv said where human bones (naturally the bones were put there by tv operator). They did for the tv a ridicule fake fight against the snake. The snake never tried to constrict the guy . I remember so well this episode of real tv because they did it in italy few time ago
