A man in Thailand suffered huge blood loss after a python sank its fangs into his penis while he was sitting on the toilet.
Atthaporn Boonmakchuay tried desperately to break free after the huge snake attacked in the bathroom of his home in Chachoengsao, east of the capital Bangkok.
The 38-year-old reportedly reached down with his hand after feeling a sharp bite - only to discover the serpent's jaws clamped around the tip of his penis.

I guess that brings new meaning to the phrase "trouser snake" :p

Sounds painful... but since when are python's "bitey", they're constrictors aren't they?

Don't constrictors bite their prey to hold it while wrapping around to tighten their grip?

Regardless, its impressive that a python can sit down on the toilet without falling in :D
 
Yes, Pythons have small sharp teeth that face in towards their throats. They use these to grip their prey while they constrict. With the teeth positioned this way, it is to stop things from escaping as you would be pulling against the teeth.

Which I why, if you are bitten by a Python or a Boa (I own a boa) you aren't to pull your hand out because not only will you shred it, but chances are you'll also injure the snake.

If you are bitten by one, they'll either give you a nip as a warning or if they think your hand is edible they'll lock on. In this case the best way of getting one off, short of waiting patiently (people do) is to try and submerge it underwater. This can panic the snake into releasing. The other way which works well is to pour mouthwash over where you are being munched on, they detest the taste and chances are they will instantly let go.

I have no experience of being bitten on the junk though! :eek:

I've gone the patient route before.

45 minutes later and I still had a 7ft Irian Jaya Jaguar Carpet Python hanging off my hand -.-

Also had one of my Royal Pythons bite then immediately pull back leaving a tooth firmly imbedded in my index finger! ... She missed the rat and hit me, then she went off food for 9 months in typical Royal fashion.
