Good size. It is good to see what that measurement looks like in situation like that.

Yes she was very long and thin, we weight and measure all big Anacondas captured in Venezuelan Llanos. Big Anacondas are super strong when we capture them we are at least 3 persons, we take pictures holding them 15 to 20 minutes after the capture when they are tired and very calm

I think, that people holding them are also quite happy, when they are tired.... Wink

Huge Green Anaconda killed by locals in 1978 in Rio Vermelho in Municipio Rondonopolis in Estado Matogrosso, Brazil. I estimate this huge Green Anaconda measured about 7 meters long, it is the largest I have seen.

It seems like shorter female Anacondas are more robust and heavier than long female anacondas, that's why many long anacondas look thin.

Normally the longer ones are bulkier and heavier than the smaller ones, the problem here is that we have very few pictures of very large Green Anacondas, I will post a picture of a very large heavy Green Anaconda later tonight.

I tried to figure out how long that might be. If this would be a contest I would make a guess 6,5-7 meters. Just for curiosity, what would you estimate?

I agree with your estimate from 6,5 to 7 meters long and 125 kilograms.

Assuming those men are 5+ feet tall, maybe this snake is around 18-19 feet long. Not sure about its weight.
