Jesus Christ and I'm scared roaches that may be in my garage. I would probably pass out and then it would swallow me whole if I saw that thing.

It's a Burmeese Python...they are not venomess. It would not be worried about the teeth, it's the body that will kill you. The lock onto their prey with their mouths and then wrap around their prey and suffocate them. Then they swallow it whole. That is a big son of a bitch!

You guys should check out the one at the Houston Zoo.

In proportion to the rest of his body those teeth are really not that big. An 8 foot rattlesnake has fangs twice that size.
