The 45 year old Dutch man was bitten when he went on a bathroom break and sat down on the toilet, completely oblivious to the danger lurking in the bowl.

The snake hiding in the bowl attacked the nearest target… the man’s genitals. He had to wait an excruciating three hours before being transported from the unnamed game park to the nearest hospital 350 kilometers away.

He even made it into a medical journal for the first reported case of “snouted cobra envenomation of the genitals”.

According to the medical report, his genitals were swollen, deep purple in colour, and painful. You shiver just imagining it… Ugh!
