Moment Huge Python Wraps And Squeezes Thai Woman For Two Hours [PHOTOS/VIDEO]
The Genius Media Nigeria reports that a Thai woman somehow survived a terrifying encounter with a huge python after the 16-foot snake wrapped itself around her waist as she was doing dishes and then squeezed her tightly for two hours.
Arom Arunroj, 64, was cleaning up in her kitchen just outside Bangkok on Tuesday night, September 17, when she felt a sharp pain in her thigh and looked down to see a massive python taking hold of her,
“I was about to scoop some water and when I sat down it bit me immediately,” Arunroj told Thailand’s Thairath newspaper. “When I looked I saw the snake wrapping around me.”
The snake continued to coil around Arunroj’s waist until she could no longer stand, forcing her to prop herself up against the kitchen door as she screamed for help.
A neighbor finally heard her cries around 90 minutes later and quickly alerted authorities.
Chilling footage showed first responders arriving to find an exhausted and pale-looking Arunroj sitting on her floor with the constrictor still wrapped around her.
Cops and animal control officers were forced to hit the snake on the head with a crowbar to get it to finally release Arunroj.
The woman was treated for several bites but was otherwise unharmed physically.
The snake, meanwhile, ended up slithering away before it could be captured, police said.
Pythons, which are non-venomous, kill their prey by gradually squeezing them to death. While snake encounters are not uncommon in Thailand, python attacks on humans are rare
