Now, can you imagine waking up early in the morning sitting on the toilet and then this popping up between your legs?

He wouldn't have come up through the toilet.

He would have come into the house and then crawled into the Abbot to hide.

I don't know about you guys, but my sphincter just actually tightened.

I mean, how often do you go to the bathroom and you don't actually look down?

Well, anyway, that was snake catcher Tony Harrison, saving the day for a family on the Gold Coast.

Look, I got a call from the hubby and he was obviously a little bit upset about what was going on, but, yeah, it was standard issue for me, except for the fact that it was.

You can imagine how they could have panned out.

Look, in the years that I've been a snake catcher, I've probably seen, I'd say, 10 snakes in toilets.

It's the second time ever there was one under the lip and probably the biggest one that I've seen.

I think that it's gone in there for a bit of a drink and then it wanted to hide away from all the scary things it was seeing, so it tried its hardest to get away from us.

So there's a possibility it was there for a while, then.

They can go 12 months without a feed, so it's probably seen a few.

Good luck trying to go to the toilet now, because that does go through your mind, doesn't it?

I remember when I was a kid and in Cairns and I went.

My Uncle Pete made me go to the toilet and there was a.

There was like a green frog in the toilet.

And I've always had a fear of green frogs since then.

How do I overcome it or how does the people overcome it?

And Tony, you recently rescued a 1.7 metre long eastern brown from a kid's Lego set.

Yep, look, a lot of people leave garage doors open and doors open all the time.

And they don't realise that as I catch the snakes, people look at me and say, how does the snake get in?

And I say, well, it's open now while we're looking at it, you know, so it happens often, mate.

So if we find a snake in our homes or gardens, what should we do?

Because the way you're handling it there, it's as if it's a rubber toy snake.

Look, I do it day in and day out and obviously I know what I'm doing and I'm not too worried about the bite.

But if anybody does see a snake, don't try and handle them the way we do.

They don't try and identify themselves because quite often people misidentify it and end up in hospital.

The best thing to do is just keep your eye on it.

Take a photo and send it to a snake catcher or just call a snake catcher.

You know, we can sort it out over the phone if need be.

I mean, it's just like opening a can of Spam for you.

I've been doing it for 26 years, so it is like that, yeah?

What's the strangest place you found one?

Look, what's stranger than finding it in the shitter?

Whatever you can imagine, I found them there, you know, You're a monster, a legend.

You are my man of the year, I'll say that.

If you can't talk the truth, then you can't talk at all.

You name it, you name it, we found him there.

And thank you saying up yours to political correctness.
