Photos: Viewers Angry After Man Fails To Be “Eaten Alive” By Anaconda

The Discovery Channel show ‘Eaten Alive’ was promoted in a way that led viewers to think environmentalist Paul Rosolie was going to be eaten alive by a gigantic anaconda. However, Paul eho is currently being ripped apart on social media for getting his safety team to save him after just part of his head was consumed by the snake.

In footage aired on the Discovery Channel on Sunday night - it airs on UK TV on Friday - 27-year-old Paul Rosolie and his 10-strong team tracked down the 20ft-long, 18st anaconda to the headwaters of the Amazon river. Donning a black armored suit, slathered in pig blood, Mr Rosolie then moved
tentatively 'on all fours' toward the enormous beast as the cameras rolled and his wife, Gowri, watched.

Seconds later, the female anaconda - one of the world's most fearsome creatures - pounced on its 5ft 9ins victim, latching on to his head, before constricting his arms and body. However, as Mr Rosolie felt his arm 'start to break' under the snake's grip, he ordered his team of fellow naturalists, doctors and vets to save him - with just the top of his head in the animal's jaws.

Within minutes of the show, named 'Eaten Alive', being broadcast, people across America exploded, some upset no one was really eaten alive. They took to Twitter to express their disappointment at the highly anticipated footage.

“2 hours of my life I can't get back and Paul didn't even get eaten alive,” one Twitter user wrote.

“This dude’s a quitter,” another said.
