I know what you guys mean about the wierd angles to make the snake look larger. This was actually a 7 foot 3 inch rattler. Still very large and has a head about the size of a fist. It is not a brand new story as was mentioned already. It was from this past October and wasn't sure if anyone posted it then. I just thought it was amazing that a snake this size can be found in a very residential area.
Maybe it is, but I doubt it's actually that length. It's huge and obviously photographed at odd perspectives to make it appear larger; why do this if the snake is already as huge as you say it is?
