The snake is only about 2.5 metres long which is hardly "huge".:D

The zoomed in camera angle tries to make the snake look large however the built elements in the background & foreground give it away.

Have you took into account sunlight and lens used on the video camera?

Was still good for a laugh.

When the clip starts, the camera passes in front of a star post/picket post/dropper. These are about 30-35mm wide. As the camera pans there is a panel joint in the background with a 6mm bolt. Having worked out the scale of the made items, the panel length can be guessed and so the length of the snake.

You've put a lot of thought into this are you a hornby, mecano or a model airoplane type of guy?
