Viral Video: Remember the popular anaconda movies that instilled a major fear of anacondas among several generations? Turns out, that some people somehow were instead left intrigued with these mega reptiles. Proving the same further, a video of a man swimming with a huge anaconda surfaced online and left the rest of the 'sane' netizens terrified and somewhat concerned. The two were in a river in Brazil's Pantanal Wetland, as they swam like old buds by each other's side. The video went viral and received a major reaction from people.
As per many, the reptile seemed full, due to which it did not attack the human swimming by its side. However, as per the post, it was rather more about the fact that the person in question was an expert.
The video was shared on the social media platform Instagram, by the handle 'safari.travel.ideas'. The post was captioned, "To be clear, we do not recommend swimming with an anaconda. In fact, we would advise against getting into the water with any large reptile that is capable of eating a human.
However, some people do have the expertise (and the proverbial balls) to do it safely. Respect to them.
The point we wanted to make with this video is that the Pantanal is home to some very large anacondas. Many of them in fact. They love tropical wetland habitats, and the Pantanal is the world's largest tropical wetland."

The video was shared a day ago and pulled 92K likes from people. The video has been circulating ever since it was shared on social media. Most people found the snake scary and anyway refused to ever try swimming or ever going near an anaconda, while the rest shared a few jokes.
Taking to the comment section, people shared their take. "Lucky that his tummy is already full," a user said. "She already has a human in there he's good," added another. "It looks like there is another swimmer inside the anaconda," commented a third person. "The anaconda wasn't interested because he didn't have buns, hun," joked a fourth person.
"So you're telling me.. After watching all 3 parts of Anacondas movies as a kid hoping it's real, this guy just swims next to it," commented a fifth user. "I like how they warn 'don't swim with anacondas' as if I was planning to do it tomorrow," wrote a sixth user. "By seeing its belly I can say you're lucky man cos he just ate a whole crocodile on his way to u," wrote another. "It's okay if you see its tummy full of meals, if not, he will be its meal," added another.
