We were heading up the west coast of Tassy,you have bush 100 ft high on the left as you head north ;that in 99% of , no man has ever trodden.
We just got past an opening for a bbq rest area on the left with a couple of road signs saying something ,just paddoks out to the right. Sun going down behind us. We were sh!t faced and 3 of us staring out the front window like we were just watching telly on the way to heaven music blareing. We saw what we thought was a speed trap just on our half of the road so it came out of the bush to the left and was exactly half way over the main highway so it was black and 10inches thick ,no less and half of it we could see as we went bang bang over it with both wheels was about 15 feet long. we went slow cause it was a big lump in the road we thought and then it raised up higher than the roof of the kombie turned orund and headed back intothe bush and we never saw the tail end of it,but it raised up and turned from the dirt part of the road so it must have been a 30 foot plus black.?

Tassy? Tasmania? Well not to sound unbelieving, but there are no snakes on Tasmania{or the mainland} that big. There may be black-headed pythons there, though I don't think so; plus they are yellow with a black head and I think reach 15 ft. or so. The 2 venomous I know for sure there are the tiger and copperhead snakes. Coppers can get up to about 8 ft. and tigers usually no more than 6. You did say you were sh#tfaced

Then again there are things still undiscovered; and maybe you killed the last of its kind
