A timber rattlesnake chubby enough to qualify as a speedbump was filmed blocking a hiking trail in Tennessee, and viewers can't decide whether to be horrified or dubious.
A photographer says she spotted a venomous snake while hiking on the weekend. She says it brought things to a stop.
Buckner wrote that he almost stepped on it. The front half of the car was on the trail when I saw it.
The video shows the snake crossing from one side of the trail to the other. During that time, viewers can see a reptile that is thick and intimidating.
A man and his dog were behind us. We were all waiting for him to go on his way.
I think people know there are snakes in the woods, but never expect them to be so large. It looks like he just ate. He had a bulge in his stomach.
The video was shared on social media by multiple TV stations and resulted in it being shared by education groups on Facebook.
She says she is getting a real kick out of people saying it is a fake snake. The video doesn't allow for a reliable size estimate, unless someone takes a ruler and measures the width of the trail

One person said that the snake had to be as old as dinosaurs.

The timber rattlesnake is a member of the pit viper family.
There are reports of timber rattlesnakes growing up to 7 feet in length.
