A 30-year-old Thai man became a sitting target for a snake, which bit his private part as sat on the toilet in Chachoengsao Province. It might sound scary but snake is not the only reptile that can swim up your toilet.

People have lived this nightmare in many parts of the world. Geoff Jacobs at Queensland Wildlife Solutions in Australia, who has run a snake-catching business in Brisbane for 20 years, told BBC, "stories of snakes navigating domestic plumbing are quite common."
"There's only a small amount of water in the bottom of your toilet bowl. They come up through a dry pipe and there's a small bit of water in the S-bend - he's only got to go down an inch-and-a-half or two inches and straight back up, so its quite easy once they learn how to do it," Jacobs said.
