This type of camera trick is called "forced perspective". It's the same thing that people do in pictures like this:
The guy in the picture is actually holding the snake out towards the camera with a piece of wood, so it's quite a bit smaller. Here's an article on the snake where they note it was about 6'9". http://www.yourhoustonnews.com/courier/news/snake-photo-legitimate-but-it-s-not-from-around-here/article_8803ca63-10a7-5dda-8412-3dad01258ae0.html
Which is still just waay too much rattlesnake. I used to bale a lot of hay as a kid, and the damn things would lie in the windrows, and when you'd get out to work on the baler...

Unfortunately, this is the comment I can most identify with.
Why do Reese's taste so good?!

$150k to treat a bite is like wow. I saw the same thing in Field and Stream a few months ago, although $150k was on the upper end of the price scale.

Thanks, JDG, sometimes I know what I'm thinking and trying to express, but it eludes me at the time. I guess it's the results of the strokes I've suffered.
