A man was b!tten on the t£sticles by a huge python in Thailand, leaving his bathroom sprayed in blo0d as he desperately be@t it to de@th with a toilet brush.
Thanat Thangtewanon was attacked by the 12ft reptile hiding in the U-bend of his home toilet on Tuesday, August 20.
Horrifying pictures show the aftermath of the snake attack.
Thanat said that moments after sitting down he felt a sharp pain tear through his testicles.
He said: "I felt something biting my balls. It was very painful, so I put my hands in the toilet to see what was wrong. I was shocked that I grabbed a snake.
"I quickly stood up and plucked it out. I felt pain, really bad pain, and there was blood everywhere, but I was more shocked to have found a python in the toilet."
In a desperate attempt to break its grasp, Thanat grabbed the toilet brush and started hitting at the snake's head until it loosened its grip and died.
The father immediately went to a hospital to get a tetanus vaccine.
He said doctors told him he would not need stitches as the wound was not deep enough to sever the skin and it would heal in a couple of weeks.
"But I haven't used that toilet again since.
"Every time I go, I check what's inside and put a brush in there to make sure."
Pythons attacking people using toilets have happened several times before in Thailand.
In 2016, a resident Attaporn Boonmakchuay was ambushed by a 10-foot-long python while using a squat toilet in Chachoengsao province.
He passed out from blood loss but survived after being treated at the Chularat Hospital.
In 2020, a housewife Boonsong Plaikaew was bitten on her buttocks by a python while sitting on the toilet bowl in Samut Prakan province.
