Python coils around man's neck; watch what happened next

Thiruvananthapuram: A python coiled around the neck of a labourer at Kallikad in Kattakada, Thiruvananthapuram, Kerala. The snake coiled around Bhuvanachandran Nair's neck while he was engaged in his work.

Seeing the incident, the other workers with Nair caught hold of the snake's tail, neck and rescued Nair from the snake. The labourers said if the snake had coiled around his neck for more time, it would have endangered his life. Soon officials of the forest department rushed to the spot and caught the snake. Later they left the snake in the forest.
