Turns out the snake sort of put his mouth around his head and the guy tapped out, pull me out, pull me out, and that was it. 70 minutes into the show, rosolie tapped out saying the snake was about to break his arm. So he was not eaten alive, not even a scratch. Stephen for shame, Discovery Channel you promised paul rosolie would be eaten hence the title eaten alive. But you only gave us cuddled alive thats just snake first base. And im not the only one angry. Twitter tweeted, next time i watch something called eatenalive, somebody better get eaten alive. And this guy had one job. Literally one bleep job to get eaten alive and he bleep it up. cheers and applause its outrageous now, as angry as i am, discovery did have a cogent response. Paul created this challenge to get maximum attention for one of the most beautiful and threatened parts of the world, the amazon rain forest. True. Theres no better way to bring attendance to the amazon rain forest than to cover yourself in pigs blood and climb into a snakes mouth. You see that, you think, man, we gotta save those trees. Just like the best way to save our oceans is to put on some flippers and bone a narwhal not easy in such cold water. laughter folks, with only six shows left, it is time to say awwww stephen i know, i see that in the mirror every morning. Its time to say goodbye to classic the colbert report segments. Threatdown, cheating death, where are my glasses . We only did that segment once. They were in my car. Welcome to obamas america. laughter tonight, i present the last better know a district. cheers and applause over the years, ive interviewed only 81 members of congress. Still, 81 out of 434 is pretty good. I think thats every remaining democrat. Over the years, ive fenced with marcia fudge, skate boarded with jackie speier, legwrestled jason chaffetz, tossed salmon with jim mcdermott, drank beer with russ carnahan, shotgunned beer with dan maffei, funneled beer with jared polis, and dropped acid with maurice hinchey. laughter applause cheers and applause stephen i dont see why congress cant get anything done.
