A man was bitten by a three-metre python and took his life

A Filipino man clung with his teeth to a python that attacked him and took his life. About it writes AsioOne.

In the early morning hours of December 20, 48-year-old Bolhulio Aleria was riding his motorbike through the village of Antequera in Bohol province when a three-metre python crawled out of the grass onto the road. The man stopped to let the reptile pass, but it suddenly lunged at him. The python bit his arm, forcing him to let go of the handlebars of the motorbike, before wrapping itself around his waist.

The man was afraid that the snake would strangle him and decided to bite it back. With his other hand, Aleria grabbed the snake near his head. “I bit it until I had bitten through its skin, and then I began to tear its flesh. It was only then that its grip loosened,” claimed Aleria. The fight lasted for about ten minutes.
