Snake bites on butt as he plays video game on toilet seat
A 28-year-old’s unwavering habit of playing mobile games while using the toilet was interrupted when a snake bit him on the backside.
According to news reports, Sabri Tazali had been sitting on the toilet playing video games on his phone when the snake struck him. He found out two weeks later that the reptile had left behind teeth fragments in his buttock after he yanked the snake away during their encounter in his house.
The Malaysian man, sharing his experience through his Twitter account, described the incident as an “unfortunate moment.”
Mr Tazali explained that he often spends about 15 minutes playing games on his mobile device while defecating. However, on March 28, he stood up in shock only to find that the snake had latched itself to his buttock. P
He said that he was relieved when he found out that the snake was a non-poisonous one and the bite wasn’t painful.
Mr Tazali said he went to a hospital, where he was given an anti-tetanus shot, adding that that was the first time that such an incident occurred in his house since his family had been living there for 40 years.

Texas woman’s tongue is the world’s widest at 3.11 inches
A Texas woman was awarded a Guinness World Records title for the surprising contents of her mouth – a 3.11-inch-wide tongue.
Brittany Lacayo told the record-keeping organization she decided to apply for the title after learning about the former record-holder, Emily Schlenker, whose tongue measured 2.89 inches wide.
Lacayo’s tongue is exactly as wide as the average length of an adult woman’s tongue: 3.11 inches.
Her tongue actually is wider than it is long when measured from the epiglottis, the flap of cartilage located behind the tongue.
“It is neat and kind of funny,” Lacayo told Guinness World Records.
The male version of the record belongs to American Brian Thompson, whose tongue measures 3.49 inches wide.
