An incident happens in Russia where a 4ft snake was removed from a woman’s mouth after it slithered inside her while she slept. The snake crawled in her mouth as she slept in the yard of her home in Levashi village in Dagestan.
After feeling uncomfortable, the woman was rushed to the hospital where she was put under general anesthetic.
A video shows a doctor removing the snake after inserting a tube down her throat.
Can be heard when the operation is performed, one of the doctors is heard off-camera saying, “Let’s see what this is,”.
The doctor then grabs the snake with a horrified expression on her face as she pulled the snake out from the woman’s mouth. She then jumped back startled and the medical staff scream as they realize the long length of the snake inside the patient.
The creature is then dropped into a medical bucket, but it is unclear if the snake is still alive or not and how long it was inside the woman.
The Ministry of Health in Dagestan, a mountainous republic bordering the Caspian Sea, has not commented.
It said that such incidents happen infrequently ad older citizens advise the young not to sleep outside because of the risk of snakes getting into their mouths. The woman in question was not identified, nor was the type of the snake specified. Other victims have complained of “something alive” inside them after snakes slithered into their mouths.
