"Hello, 911? Yes, ma'am, this is an emergency. The emergency? A 13 foot Python is trying to eat me. He has me in his coils. Up a tree. I am keeping him from swallowing me by covering his head with my shirt. Oh, and I am biting his tail. Yes, that is the correct address. Please tell them to hurry. i will be easy to find. I am the man all wrapped up in snake. Up a tree."

That guy found himself in quite the tight situation!

It thought he was a toad.

And if you take it from the snake's point of view, you get another good story....

In the movie version of this the victim would be played by Samuel L. Jackson. "I'm coiled in a mother fucking snake up a mother fucking tree!"

What's more ridiculous is that they caught the snake and apparently put it in a cell/pen with a hole large enough for a thirteen foot python to slip through - and it did. How a snake that large escapes from somewhere without anyone noticing is mind-boggling.

Snakes *compress*. Not as much as rats, but significantly.

"We are still seriously looking for the snake," said Supt Katam. "We want to arrest the snake because any one of us could fall a victim." suggests to me this is bullshit.

Sounds like a perfectly typical ESL error, and the rhythm of the speech fits East Africa. He's a cop, he's used to saying "arrest" when he means "catch".

Nah... sounds like East African police. A friend of mine is a bush pilot there and has some *amazingly* funny stories. This sounds a /lot/ like some she's told...
