An Australian lady 'hopped off her seat' after she was nibbled by a snake while she was perched on the can.
Helen Richards, 59, says she felt a 'sharp tap' on the loo at her home in Brisbane, Australia, on Tuesday as the reptile's teeth punctured her rear.
When she looked behind her, she was sickened to locate a 5ft python nestled into the base of the bowl.
"I hopped up with my jeans down and pivoted to perceive what resembled a longneck turtle subsiding once more into the bowl," she disclosed to The Courier Mail paper.
Fortunately the chomp from the non-venemous cover python was not genuine and just required enemy of septic treatment.
Helen reached reptile handler Jasmine Zeleny who recovered the creature from the lady's home
