4 Foot Snake Hanging On Electric Cables. by 100Cents: 1:57pm On Dec 11, 2014
I just spotted a 4 foot long snake hanging on power cables where I have been for a long time now.

One starts to wonder how these creatures climb up such heights..

I have once seen a huge snake taking an upwards dive into the air but here the nearest electric pole to this snake is concrete situated 15 metres away.

All my enemies die by fire

I guess it was hark that drop it from the sky when the snake is struggling for its life but unfortunately its landed on the live wires (high tension cable)

RIP snake

If you are an ELECTRICITY Engineer like Musiwa, then you should know that the snake was killed by electricity.

On your behalf, I contacted the local government chairman of the area where the above serpent was photographed, and he has given assurance that a Panel of Inquiry will be constituted for the purpose of deliberating over the ramifications of this mysterious incident, in order to generate and publish a White Paper, whose recommendations will be implemented in consonance with existing objectives and standards enshrined in the constitution guiding relevant local government directives, under the auspices of an Overseeing Committee, all of which will be funded generously from the budget of the current fiscal year.

Please do not hesitate to contact me if you have any further questions that require clarification.

What kind of Engineer are you? How can an ordinary carpenter take a look at the above picture and conclude the snake is 4 feet long, not to talk of an engineer. Do you have an idea of what 4 feet is? 4 feet is approximately 1.2meters. I, being of average height is 6feet tall.

Are you telling us that the spaces between the high tension wires is 1 foot? as the snake is at least four times longer than the spaces between the wires. The snake must have been electrocuted by bridging a live wire with the ground wire ( which is the last wire closest to the ground)

From cursory observations, the snake is nothing less than 10 feet long.
Re: 4 Foot Snake Hanging On Electric Cables. by Tomoarika(m): 10:53pm On Dec 11, 2014
@Wirinet u sabi book.

The snake was simply electrocuted when it bridged two phases. it could hav slithered unhurt if it had remained along a single line. I've seen a squirrel similarly electrocuted. Dats y birds can perch on lines unhurt.

U can test my hypothesis, just jump and hang on a single phase WITHOUT TOUCHING any other phase (neutral included) then tell me the result.
Note: This is done at your own risk! Don't try this at home kids.

My error, the bridge was between two phases and not between a live wire and the ground. But we agreed that the snake was electrocuted when it bridged two wires. The argument is that from the distance between the wires, the snake cannot be 4 feet long, considering the wires are high tension wires.

we all know the snake is dead fine we know it was electrocuted. what we don't know is how it got there
