Atthaporn Boonmakchuay has lived out what is perhaps every man’s worst nightmare,
While sitting on the toilet in his Chachoengsao home, Boonmakchuay felt something bite him, the Daily Mail reported. When he reached down, he found a snake with its jaw clamped around his penis.
Boonmakchuay screamed for help as he tried to fight off the snake. His wife was able to get him a rope, and he managed to tie the python’s head to the bathroom door before collapsing.
Boonmakchuay was rushed to a nearby hospital after suffering substantial blood loss.
Emergency crews were able to remove the 11-foot python from the pipes under the toilet. The snake was released back into the wild.
According to reports, the python had swam up pipes to get to the home.
