Reference and existence of giant snakes in Mahabharata

https://m.youtube.com/watch?feature=youtu.be&v=DGPsurIkLKA

Just a thought.

Could Titanoboa or Sachamama snake be the Aghasura mentioned in Bhagavad Gita?

Seems these giant serpants, like the one in Amazon forests called Sachamama can keep their mouths open for days,allowing vegetation to grow around them so the prey walks into it's mouth directly.

The below description fits the narration in this video to some extent.

The Bhagavata Purana states that Aghasura assumed the form of an enormous serpent. Krishna's companions, the cowherd boys, entered its mouth, mistaking it for a mountain cavern. After seeing this, Krishna then came to their rescue, killing Aghasura. (The killing of Aghasura by Lord Krishna is narrated by Sage Sukadeva to king Parikshit in Srimad Bhagavatam).
