A missing 45-year-old woman was found dead inside a 16-foot python in Indonesia on Saturday, and video footage shows the moment villagers realized what happened.
The victim was from Kalempang village in the South Sulawesi province, according to Deutsche Welle (DW). The outlet said the story began on Thursday when she informed her husband that she was leaving to sell chilies to a collector. However, that was apparently the last time anyone saw her alive.
Village chief Suardi Rosi explained that the woman, whose name was Farida, did not return home and her husband and their relatives began searching for her.
Following a long search, the group found a python near her abandoned belongings and sliced the snake open. When they did so, the woman’s head became visible.
Video footage appears to show the villagers cutting the snake open, removing the woman’s body, and carrying her back to the village:

Dang..... that’s a heck of a way to go out.
And there’s the next “pandemic”.
“Indonesian Woman Killed After 16-Foot Python Swallows Her Whole”
Pythons kill BEFORE swallowing.
Yep, she was strangled before she was ingested. Awful way to die.
ROFL!
I remember back in the 70s an episode of Mutual of Omaha’s Wild Kingdom where Marlin Perkins was wrapped up by a huge python as it tried to drown him. He was barely saved by his sidekick Jim or Stan. I can’t remember which one but Marlon was almost squeezed to death.
People have become lulled into complacency by assumptions that aren’t true - one of which is the trope that wild animals are less dangerous than humans. We get few shark attacks because humans don’t hang around shark habitats much, so run into very few, relative to the thousands of human strangers within rifle range we encounter each day. For the average person, the total number of stranger human encounters in rifle range annually might be a million. Shark encounters per year? Maybe one, or less. On a per encounter basis, large predator attacks on humans are probably orders of magnitude higher than human on human attacks.
[Miss Alabama marked safe from being swallowed whole by a python.]
“How many days in a row are you going to report something on her?” asked Jordan Evans on Facebook. “Your credibility as a professional news agency is coming into question.”
National outlets quickly jumped on the bandwagon, continuing to call Milliken “Miss Alabama.” However, the misrepresentation of the title has gotten the attention of many people, including former Miss Alabama Amie Beth Shaver.
Shaver explained that there is only one Miss Alabama title, and that is for the pageant that sends competitors to Miss America. There is also Miss Alabama USA, which sends contestants to the Miss USA pageant.
“Miss America now is 101 years old and then Miss USA, which goes on the Miss Universe pageant,” Shaver said. “But this National American Miss, no one has heard of it. I don’t even know what it is.”
Shaver said Miss America owns the rights to the “Miss Alabama” title, so it is improper to use that title for another other pageant.
“If you are a pageant person, you’re only going to participate in either Miss America or Miss USA,” Shaver added.
The National American Miss pageant awards winners with scholarships, self-care products and other prizes. The program is based on positive self-image.]
I remember that one. That was the closest anyone came to death. I think Jim got injured messing with a rhino though. But the snake scene even the photographers had to pitch in as I recall.
Was it her pet?
I remember Marlin and the python-my dad made us turn the channel because my sister started shrieking. LOL
Marlon was always prodding Jim into questionable situations. “See if you can get that croc to open its mouth, Jim.”
Is Weekly World News still in print?
Just wondered.
I should be ashamed of myself, but somehow, I’m not. :^)
