Snakes on a plane! Man bitten by cobra during flight in Egypt
5th Dec 2012 12:46pm | By Editor
In a slightly bizarre case of life imitating art, a man was bitten by a cobra on board a flight in Egypt, much like the events that occur in the cult Samuel L Jackson movie Snakes On A Plane.
A man on a flight from Cairo to Kuwait was bitten by a cobra but rather than being an unfortunate victim struck down by an outbreak of muthafuckin’ snakes on a muthafuckin’ plane, he was partly responsible as he had smuggled the snake on board himself.
The flight was forced to perform an emergency landing where the man was taken away for treatment and the snake captured.
