So we’re not even safe on our own toilet these days, are we?
So while this poor South Carolina man was dealing with two snakes hanging off his ceiling, and while this plane headed towards Mexico City was flying with a snake on it, residents at an apartment complex in Pretoria, South Africa, are dealing with a huge cobra inside of their toilet.
The cobra was believed to have gotten inside the plumbing system, so the residents were quick to call snake catcher Barry Greenshields. Check out video of it below, filmed by Anton Mejier.
So An 8-Foot Cobra Was Found Chilling Inside Of An Apartment Toilet
But there’s one problem: The snake catcher lost his grip and let the snake go back into the toilet, where the snake got away.

“We still have no idea where the snake is hiding,” Mejier said. So yes, that cobra can still bite one of these residents in the ass. Although, the residents are considering pouring pool acid or hot water down the pipes to kill it, but the snake catcher wants to capture it alive.
“We have put cameras in the pipes to look for it,” Greenshields explains. “Residents are still worried and some of them are feeling like if it comes up they want to kill it which is something I don’t want. I hope he has left through the pipes.”
Suddenly the bathroom isn’t the sanctuary it once used to be.
