One of the irrational fears that I have is that a snake will come up and take a bite out of me while I’m sitting on the toilet. Likely? No. Possible? Yes. And one family in Essex had to deal with a snake in their toilet recently.
A poor five-year-old boy got the scare of a lifetime when he lifted his toilet seat up only to be confronted by a three-foot python staring back at him. Here’s what the boy’s mom, Laura Cowell, had to say about his encounter.
“He was frantic, and shaking, and I could tell something was wrong, but that was not what I expected.”
So This Toilet Was Blocked Because A 3-Foot Python Was In The Way

It seems that the family’s toilet had been blocked for a few days, and well, it was all thanks to a damn snake.
“I had to use a broom handle to lift the lid, then out popped its head and its tongue came out as well,” Cowell said.

And don’t worry, the snake is all well. Are Cowell and her son fine? Probably not, no.
