I work at a school and another teacher was having a local wildlife center come show the kids some herps. I NEVER get to talk reptiles, so was excited to go to the presentation in her room. The rep. brought 2 native animals and 1 non-native..a BP. When presenting the BP (looked like an adult male of average size). She responded to a question about how large BPs can get. She said they can get "6-8 feet". It was all I could do to not correct her int he middle of the presentation...I only own 3 BPs myself, but have never heard of one over 5'.

So my question to you guys, is what is the largest BP you've ever had, seen, or know has been documented. Is this lady correct in that there is some weird case of an 8' BP floating around, or was I correct in being shocked?

I will include a poll for this one, but please feel free to comment with an explanation. I would really like to learn something here and am hoping this woman wasn't totally off her rocker lol.
