A 25-year-old Indonesian man has been swallowed whole by a python on the island of Sulawesi.

“When its stomach was cut, we first saw his boot and legs near the neck. It seems he was attacked from behind because we found a wound on his back.”

Deadly pythons are certainly a work hazard in Indonesia. At 23' long, how was the reticulated python not spotted by the worker? I could not work under those threatening conditions for my fear would be paralyzing. May God bless the working man and his loved ones.

I know! And my DH would have to be out of town tonight of all nights. I'll probably have nightmares about Godzilla sized pythons. :scared:

A really bad cheesy B movie, except this one is for real and the opposite of bon appetit.

I feel so bad for his family, friends and loved ones.

When my son was 9 or 10, a python bit him at my ex's pet store.
