A couple have had the fright of their lives after they looked up to find an enormous python dangling from their ceiling fan.
Zach Houliston, 21, and his girlfriend, Libby were watching Netflix in their home at Victoria Point, South East Queensland at around 8pm when they made the startling discovery.
The snake had slithered through the air conditioning duct, making its way onto the ceiling fan and hanging dangerously close to the couple.
The terrified couple were watching Netflix in bed when they looked up tio find the enormous python (pictured) dangling just metres away from their heads
The snake had slithered through a broke air-vent opening in their ceiling at their Victoria Point home in South East Queensland
‘It was hanging down from the roof, probably half a metre above our heads,’ Mr Houliston told Yahoo7 News.
He said they both screamed and jumped out of bed as soon as they noticed it.
Mr Houliston said that the snake, which appeared to be a carpet python, was able to sneak through the vent as it was waiting to be fixed after the part that held it to the roof broke.
The couple mentioned that they had seen a snake inside their home before and even believed that some resided in their roof, but had never expected one to drop in like that.
Mr Houliston also believed the noise of his pet peach-faced lovebirds that sit inside the room could have excited the snake, hoping for a snack.
‘That’s the last time I want one coming through my roof,’ Mr Houliston said.
He said that he’s now made sure all the vents in the house are sealed tightly shut in hopes he isn’t disturbed again.
