THAI WOMAN RESCUED FROM PYTHON

A Thai woman was rescued by police after being strangled by a huge python for more than two hours. The 64-year-old woman was doing the dishes at home on the outskirts of Bangkok when she felt a bite on her thigh. Then a python – estimated to be 13 to 15 feet long – wrapped itself around her waist until she fell to the ground. She struggled to free herself from the snake’s tightening coils. She called out for help, but no one answered initially. Eventually, one of her neighbors was walking by, heard her calling and sought assistance from police. It took a half hour to get the snake off. Police and animal control officers used a crowbar to hit the snake on the head until it released its grip. Police say it slithered away before it could be captured.
* “Yeah, that’s it – a 15-foot snake, it just, uh, slithered away quickly.”
* Boy, first-world problems, huh?
* And she doesn’t even like being hugged.
* A similar thing happened to me last week. I accidentally let a moth in.
* Florida: this is your future.
