A man in Austria was bitten on the genitals by a python while he was on the toilet — after it’s believed the reptile escaped his neighbor’s home and slithered through the drains, police said.

The 65-year-old man in Graz was nipped by the 5-foot-plus albino reticulated python about 6 a.m. Monday as he sat down in the bathroom

The snake, a nonvenomous constrictor native to Asia, can reportedly grow to 29 feet long.

A reptile expert also responded to the man’s home and removed the snake before cleaning it and returning the pet to its 24-year-old owner.

He should be glad it’s not a toilet croc, that will chomp down on the d&bs, then twist them around a few times and drag them back down the crapper to slow ferment in his underwater den.

I hate it when I am sitting on the toilet and a python bites me.

—”I hate it when I am sitting on the toilet and a python bites me.”

The downside of an interconnected plumbing system.

Worse, it’s sort of like God taking a shit on you. Like a Monty Python (no pun intended) cartoon.

Pro tip: Don’t interrupt a python while it’s doing its business.

The man is lucky the snake didn’t do what pythons are known to do, that is, wrap themselves around their victims and squeeze hard.
