Man bitten by neighbor’s escaped python in toilet in Austria
Fox News ^ | July 5, 2021

A man in Austria was bitten by a 5 1/4-foot python during an early-morning visit to the toilet at his home on Monday, police said.

The 65-year-old victim "felt a ‘nip’ in the genital area" shortly after sitting on the toilet at home in Graz just after 6 a.m., according to a statement from police in Styria province. He then looked into the toilet and discovered the albino reticulated python.

The snake apparently had escaped unnoticed from the apartment of the man’s 24-year-old neighbor. It wasn’t immediately possible to figure out how it escaped and how it got into the toilet, but police said it may have made its way through the drains.

How did that poor, snake-bitten man wind up in a toilet in Austria?

Guess it just wasn't his day.

My considered opinion is people who buy and keep dangerous exotic “pets” have serious mental issues.

Nips in the genital area by wild animals are no fun.

You are 100% right. My wife is a veterianarian and has said that for years. Snake people are outright bizzare.

Hi.

This reminds me of...

“A man in Austria was bitten by a 5 1/4-foot python during an early-morning visit to the toilet at his home on Monday, police said.”

Florida Man!

Usually king snakes, racers, black snakes, but recently pythons and boas.

Public service announcement:. When in Florida, look before you leak, or squat, something nasty could be in that bowl.

Yes, I have, but that is a discussion for another thread.

What rotten, or good luck!

First he was bitten by neighbors. Then he narrowly escaped a python in the toilet while in Austria.
