Man gets bitten in the testicles by 12-foot python while sitting on the toilet

The python sunk its fangs into his plums

To the gentlemen reading this, I'm sure you will be overflowing with sympathy for the tale of Thanat Tangtewanon's unfortunate trip to the toilet.

While most trips to the loo offer some blessed relief and a few minutes away from a world that is constantly making demands of you, one man's sanctuary was shattered after he was bitten on the testicles by a python hiding in his bog.

Thailand bloke Thanat hopped onto social media yesterday (20 August) to share the terrible experience he and his testicles had been through.

The father-of-one shared pictures and videos on social media of him grabbing a 12-foot long snake by the neck while his toilet bowl and bathroom floor were flecked with drops of blood.

He explained that he'd got up at around 10.00am, and as usual given the toilet a flush before using it to clear away 'any unwanted surprises', so when he parked his rear end on the loo he thought he was sitting in safety.

Sadly, it wasn't so as moments later Thanat 'felt a sharp pain' in his testicles and realised that something was biting his balls.

"I reached down, and to my horror, I grabbed a snake by the neck, with its fangs still sunk in," the man said, before describing how he armed himself with a toilet brush and battled the testicular-targeting serpent.

"I jumped up and yanked it off immediately. At that moment, I didn’t feel the pain as much as I felt pure shock.

"I held the snake’s neck tightly, trying to pull it out of the toilet, but it was incredibly strong and wouldn’t budge.

"Panicking and furious, I spotted a toilet brush nearby and started whacking the snake as hard as I could."

In the ensuing melee he struck his own hand a few times but no man alive could blame him for the ferocity with which he defended his testicles, and once the snake finally went limp he was able to extract its fangs from his balls.

The snake was a 12ft python lurking in the man's toilet, though he was able to slay the serpent with a toilet brush. (Jam Press)

Calling security to get rid of the now-dead python, which had been 12 feet in length, he had a neighbour take him to hospital.

He said: "Thankfully, I’m okay now, and in case you’re wondering, my testicles are fine.

"It turned out to be a non-venomous python. I had my blood tested yesterday, and everything looked good, but I need another test today to be sure.

"I’ve got some wounds from the snake bite and from yanking it off, but nothing too serious."

Monsoon rains in Thailand often force creatures out of their hiding places, and Thai authorities urge people to be vigilant about snakes on the move during the rainy season.

One would hope that a tale of a man bitten on the testicles would make men everywhere more vigilant about the possibility of a snake lurking in their toilet just waiting for a ball to bite.
