This is the stuff of nightmares, make sure to tell your Aussie friends.
An Australian man in his 60s got the surprise of a lifetime this week when he sat down on the toilet.
The man sat on the seat as per normal, until he felt a 'tweak' in a very private area.
After the unusual feeling, he glanced into the toilet bowl only to find a 5 foot long albino python staring back at him.
The man contacted the local police department, with the snake thought to belong to one of his neighbours.
The police filed an official report on the occurrence. They were unsure how the snake got into the toilet, some suggesting it could have been through the pipes in the sewer.
The toilet victim was taken to a nearby hospital for precautionary measures. Thankfully, the snake on hand was not venomous.
Emergency services attended the horrifying scene and safely removed the snake, returning it to it's owner.
Two similar occurrences happened in Thailand but the bizarre story made headlines across Australia.
So - if you've any family or friends out in the land down under, get in touch with them.
Always check the toilet before using it. You never know what might be lurking in it!
