Cambodian man volunteers to catch python for Thais by biting its tail

A Cambodian man volunteered to help out Thai rescuers catch a python — using the bizarre method of biting the serpent’s tail — after the Thais had spent three hours yanking on the snake that went hiding in a car’s engine without success.

 

Early yesterday morning, rescuers in Samut Prakarn responded to a call from the security guards of Thai Central Chemical Company, who found a python hidden in the engine of the company’s pickup truck, Khaosod reported.

 

But the snake kept crawling away from the rescuers and wrapped itself tightly around the car’s undercarriage, so a migrant worker employed by the company, identified only as “Rathit,” stepped in to help. He said it was an ancient Cambodian method to bite on the serpent’s tail several times so it would let go.

It is correct what he did,

 

As well try what works is to bent the tail in the opposite direction, this works as well.

 

Or use drinks with more than 15% alcohol and put that over the head of the snake. The snake will go.

(And now we have all those idiots who make jokes about drunk or alcoholic snakes.)

 

And there are more non lethal tricks

What about keeping a lighter under the tail?? 

Should work. I did it many times as a prank in high school w/ metal folding chairs. Stick a lighter under it from behind.

 

Hilarious! Thanks for the memory from 30+ years ago!
