Man bitten on balls by python while he was sitting on toilet

The snake, known as the reticulated python, is found throughout Thailand and Southeast Asia.

The species typically resides in forests, swamps and canals – though they can also be found in big cities.

As a result, they can come into contact with the general public as Thanat knowns all too well.

Surprisingly, pythons attacking people while they are on the toilet has happened several times before.

Back in 2016, Attaporn Boonmakchuay had his wife prise a python’s mouth from his penis after an unexpected toilet trip.

Attaporn passed out due to excessive blood loss, but thankfully survived after being treated in hospital.
