    I seriously doubt that snake is over 8ft. It looks very average for the size of a Colombian BCI. Most adult females are about this size.

    I would have to agree, I know my hand to hand arm span is about 5 foot, maybe a tad bigger. Looks like that snake is shorter than 2 arm spans for anyone holding it, so I would put it under 10 foot.
