Giant Snake Caught in Red Sea

Is this monster snake found in Red Sea real? According to a story on Facebook A monster snake of epic proportions that was responsible for the disappearance of over 300 tourists and over 120 divers in the Red Sea was found and killed by a special team of Egyptian Scientists and Divers...
Images have been floating around the net showing what appears to be the carcass of what definitely has to be the world's biggest snake.
The story circulating with the pictures claims the snake was found in the Red Sea.
They claimed the snake was over 20 feet tall and as long as 3 ½ school buses...(approx 36 feet)
The age of the beast, taken its considerable size into consideration was estimated to be over 100 years old. (2 audio takes)
Images included pictures of the dead snake on top of some kind of military transport carrier, next to some tanks, being hoisted up by a helicopter among others...
I was intrigued by the images as well as the story. I had my own questions and wanted answers...
#1 How big can a snake get?
#2 How long can a snake live?
And last but not least...
Who is they?
The longest snake in the world is the reticulated python and can grow up to 30 feet long, and according to the people at Guinness World Records the record for longest snake ever in captivity goes to a python named “Medusa”
Even at 30 feet long, that's not even as long as one school bus.
Reticulated pythons live on average 15 to 20 years with some having reached 25 to 30 years old.
Now...
Who...
is...
they?
The story claims a specialized team of scientists and divers tracked and killed the raging reptile and as if to give the story some credence they listed some names...
They included Scientists like Drs, Karim Mohammed , Mohammed Sharif and Mr. Sea...as well as specialized divers Abdullah Karim, Wael Mohammed and mahmoud Shafik.
This would not be the first time a giant reptile was claimed to be caught on film...
This pic was alleged to be taken by Belgian Helicopter pilot Col Remy Van Lierde somewhere over the Congo in 1959 at heights over 500 feet, making the snake an estimated 200 feet long.
The colonel also claimed, that when going in for a closer look the giant snake it rose up preparing to attack if the helicopter got any closer.
So is this dead, dead sea snake real or a hoax?
A few things to consider...
When I researched these names, the only references I could find of them only lead back to the snake story on some very less than reputable news sites.
Not to mention, one of the Dr's names in the article is “Dr. Mr. Sea.”
Drawing upon extensive investigative and forensic knowledge gained by my many years of watching Law and Order and CSI, the original, not those lame copy cats..(really just did a google search). I was able to deduce that these photos and the snake are REAL!!!
These absolutely 100% real photos of this authentically dead snake began to show up in 2012 on some Persian and Arabic language web sites.
But...they did not originate there.
They go back as far as 2010 and were originally published by some Vietnamese IT Students under the title “Vietnam Army Captured Giant Snake.”
The only thing not real in the pics were the soldiers, and military vehicles. They are in fact just the kind of really cool toys my dad never bought for me.
But the snake is real, but would be at most three feet long.
Using forced perspective and some clever positioning, these students were able to execute one of the funnest looking hoaxes I think I've ever seen.
Sorry internets!

[@goddessvibesonly3759]

He said it's a hoax at the end

[@rustyshackleford5166]

the first clue besides the soldiers looking shiny and plastic is that the snake is never proportional. The tanks driving over it make it look big, but then other shots show it is just as tall as one of the soldiers. Its like the before and after shots on weight loss commercials, they pull perspective tricks to make you think it is real

[@vanessacarlson606]

I agree with you. But, there have been animals to reach that size before. I'm not saying that this is real, because it's definitely not. But there could have been a snake this size in SOME POINT of time. There was a snake called Titanoboa who lived a while ago. Titanoboa was believed to reach 40 feet long, possibly longer. Although, sadly, this snake is now extinct, it used to be real. So, it's very well possible that a snake could reach sizes very large, but the conditions would HAVE to be absolutely perfect and I don't think conditions like that exist on Earth anymore. This snake is obviously fake, it looks much like a venomous snake, and a venomous snake would NEVER reach those sizes simply because it didn't need to.

[@vanessacarlson606]

+AnHonest Gamer When you said "reaching 4 feet" you meant 40 feet, right? Just curious. And notice how I said that the 40 foot Titanoboa lived a long time ago? As in 'prehistorically'. So, yea, you are basically saying the same thing. The only problem with a snake reaching that large is simple; humans. Humans interfere with too many things. Maybe a snake could reach monster pus sizes if people left it alone, but, sadly, they won't. Good point, though. So, it actually would be hard simply because of people. Maybe if there is an island somewhere, probably not, and it may grow huge. But, when snakes, or anything for that matter, then there will be new predators evolving who are more powerful and possibly bigger.

[@fredcarr3550]

Sorry my friend, but a 30ft. python is nothing when compared with the averaged sized anaconda of South America's Amazon that can grow to between 45-60 feet in length. What however, is common to these giant snakes across the world, is that they attain great sizes as they live in water which helps to support their heavy bodies. Not sure of the conditions in the Red Sea which would have allowed a snake to exist and attain such a large size without being killed earlier in its life.
