Simple yet ingenious, the Python Striker is a state-of-the-art tool for maximizing the benefits of shadow boxing and grappling drills. With no external body attachments, the Python Striker allows you to “train while you play”. The Python Striker provides resistance to the hands and feet, which allows fighters to engage in any type of activity-from shadow boxing to takedowns and other grappling drills, or throwing medicine balls. The Python Striker builds strength and quickness in the hips, arms, and legs. stroo.ps/striker

The Burmese python (Python bivittatus) is one of the five largest species of snakes in the world (about the third-largest as measured either by length
or weight). It is native to a large variation of tropic and subtropic areas
of South and Southeast Asia.
They are often found near water and are sometimes semi-aquatic,
but can also be found in trees. Wild individuals average 3.7 m long,
but have been known to reach 5.74 m .
Burmese pythons are mainly nocturnal rainforest dwellers. When young, they are equally at home on the ground and in trees, but as they gain girth, they tend to restrict most of their movements to the ground. They are also excellent swimmers, being able to stay submerged for up to half an hour. Burmese pythons spend the majority of their time hidden in the underbrush.
Like all snakes, the Burmese python is carnivorous. Its diet consists
primarily of appropriately sized birds and mammals. The snake uses its
sharp rearward-pointing teeth to seize its prey, then wraps its body
around the prey, at the same time contracting its muscles, killing
the prey by constriction. It is often found near human habitation due
to the presence of rats, mice, and other vermin as a food source.
Burmese pythons are often sold as pets Although this species has a reputation for docility, they are very powerful animals, capable of inflicting severe bites or even killing a keeper by constriction.

Python reticulatus, also known as the (Asiatic) reticulated python, is a species of python found in Southeast Asia. Adults can grow to 6.95 m (22.8 ft) in length but normally grow to an average of 3–6 m (10–20 ft). They are the world's longest snakes and longest reptile, but are not the most heavily built. Like all pythons, they are nonvenomous constrictors and normally not considered dangerous to humans (source Wikipedia).
Thanks for taking the time to view, comment on or favourite any of my images.
This Scrub Python was found sunning its very full stomach on a log. This Scrub Python is 3 to 4 metres long and the lump in its belly is either a Rock Wallaby or a Tree Kangaroo.
To swallow a lump this size, the Scrub Python has to dislocate its jaw and stretch its mouth and throat a huge amount. A slow process for sure.

This Python was a bit like the Olive Python I found in Karijini: slow moving and not really interested in my shooting…
Python bivittatus
A healthy adult that was found crossing a forest road at 4:15 AM with an air temperature of 64 degrees Fahrenheit after a long night of alligator work. This is the 10th python I've seen this year, and is easily the oddest circumstance in which I've found one.
Thanks to Hamilton Reptiles (Next Years Reptiles) for modeling!
The Woma Python again, these creatures have a very odd feel to them, it's so much smoother than any other snake I've held!

Eric Idle, Graham Chapman, Michael Palin, John Cleese, Terry Jones, and Terry Gilliam make up Monty Python's Flying Circus, a wonderfully inane 1970s British comedy show on which I was raised.

The new Python with the old but repainted lift hill. The waiting area has changed. A single riders lane has been added (left) and if the system of 'boarding passes' might fail they have room to make a meandering system. But during the opening day, there was only one train and people should make a reservation by getting a boarding pass on the machines of app.
Operation Python
At the beginning of 2018 a large part of the attraction will be demolished and then re-built. That is the first time that the Efteling does that at a major attraction.
Only the lift, the station and the foundation are retained. The remainder of the runway is cut into pieces of five meters with a cutting torch, then a crane is loaded onto a truck and then disposed of together with the disassembled uprights as old iron. A steel company in Belgium makes the new job and stands for the Python. The new Python will look as good as possible on the old track, only the supports on which the rails will rest will be round instead of square.
The rebuilding of the attraction will take the most time. The bolted connections are assembled with a team of about 30 people. The installation of the loops will take place in four large parts of every eleven meters. This is followed by a twelve-day test program, whereby deliberate errors are made to test the emergency stop systems. Project leader of this "Operation Python" is Frank Poels.
