NO idea if she had fragile bones or what, but I don't think so. She was just a kid. I don't think she got a broken bone after that and she's now near 30.
Maybe it was the way the snake held her hand, the position of her fingers, not sure. Anyway the crack was pretty loud and scary when you're 14 year old.
That was my pet snake and I had to bring the snake back to the pet store and give it back for free
I was not allowed to keep a snake after that until I was much older and indenpendant.
Anyway that always left me with the impression that larger snakes would have great pressure enough to crush something.

Well you friend must have had really f'd up fingers then. A 2 foot long snake cant break bones like that, for a snake to have the strength to break a bone like a finger it would have to be well over 2" thick and theres no way a snake that thick could easily wrap around a single finger. They RARELY even break the rib bones on the prey they eat. Unless they did something stupid like wack their finger against a table because they had a temper tantrun about a snake (sounds plasuable from they way you're talking). Snakes dont kill their prey be breaking bones, they just prevent the prey from being able to inhale. They dont break bones. Common sense? |
