Paul Rosolie's "Eaten Alive" somewhat failed as he aborted the mission to be eaten alive by a female anaconda. After the show aired, it received backlash from the viewers on Twitter.
Welp I fell for it watched #eatenalive featuring no eating of a live person by an anaconda as promised. Should stick to watching football.

Should have known better... It was @Discovery I want my 2hrs back... Also he didn't get eaten! Almost don't count! #EatenAlive — William Aymerich (@willaymerich) December 8, 2014
I can relate to this #EatenAlive guy. I've been wrapped up in my comforter a little too tight and had trouble breathing. Not impressed.

Today, the host of "Eaten Alive" Paul was interviewed by Jimmy Kimmel (on JImmy Kimmel Live) through Skype. Rosolie attempted to defend his decision not to be swallowed up by the snake and he said, "I mean, hey, we gave it the best shot we could."
The host Kimmel points out that those viewers who were disappointed that he wasn't "eaten alive," Rosolie reacted, "I think they missed the whole point of the show then."
When the naturalist was asked if he realized that this was a bad decision "About the time I felt my bones starting to creak," Rosolie recalled.
Kimmel quipped a suggestion that he should be eaten alive by something to appease viewers, like an alligator. The naturalist answer, "I mean, I think I owe it to the people of planet earth to get eaten by something, no," the naturalist responded.
Then the host added another better idea, "I'd like to see you have sex with a hippo."
Rosolie replied, "I'm not sure I'd be into that."
Then Kimmel quipped back again, "Think about the rainforest!"
