Man Finds Huge Python Under His Bonnet...What He Does Next Will Send Chills Down Your Body (Video)

A man was shocked when he discovered a large python hidden under his car bonnet, then he fearlessly moved to solve the big problem.

A Zimbabwean man was met with a difficulty recently when he found a large python inside his car's bonnet.

The man – who isn’t named – walks cautiously round to the front of a Zimbabwe-registered truck on a dirt track and finds the creature coiled on top of the engine.

However, instead of him to find a stick and kill the snake or shove it off, he grabbed the reptile near its head and, with help from another man, extricated it from the engine and dropped it in the thick grass by the side of the road.

The snake is writhing as it is carried but cannot bite the man because it is held on its neck.

From inside the car come the excited voices of children.

“Daddy, no, no: Don’t put that thing in the car!” shouts one.

Others said: “It’s spitting… it’s a rattlesnake” and then, hardly surprisingly, others screamed: “Oh, that is a monster.”

Though the footage was uploaded this week and is causing a buzz on social media, it’s not clear when or where in Zimbabwe it was filmed. There are two cars in the clip and it may be that one driver summoned the other for help.

Pythons are found in many places in Zimbabwe. In November last year, a 2.5m long one was found abandoned on a bus in the east of the country.

The snakes are protected animals in Zimbabwe. To be found in possession of a skin can land you in jail, as a man from southern Lupane found out to his cost last month.
