A shocking incident has gone viral after a man narrowly escaped a deadly python attack right outside his own home.
Neighbors reported hearing loud screams and rushed to see the unbelievable struggle. The snake, estimated to be several meters long, tried to strike as the man fought back with his bare hands.
Instead of freezing in fear, the quick-thinking resident grabbed the python by its head and used his strength to hold its jaws away from his body. Witnesses say the struggle lasted several tense minutes before the man managed to push the snake back over the railing, sending it slithering away.
“He’s very lucky to be alive. One wrong move and this could have ended in tragedy,” said one neighbor who watched the scene unfold.
Local wildlife experts explained that pythons are powerful constrictors capable of overpowering large animals — and in rare cases, humans. Encounters like this are extremely dangerous, and specialists warn residents to call authorities rather than trying to handle snakes themselves.
The man suffered only minor scratches but is said to be deeply shaken by the terrifying ordeal.
