16-foot python filmed slithering across home’s roof stuns community

Spine-tingling footage captured the moment a massive 16-foot snake slithered over the roof of a family’s house in Australia right as they were tucking into their midday meal.

Video of the incident has amassed over 12 million views on TikTok as viewers admire the slitherer on the roof’s “python parkour.”

“Only in Australia will you see a 5-[meter] long Carpet Snake in the suburbs,” reads the caption to the clip, which was filmed in an undisclosed part of Queensland.

The footage shows the massive carpet python — which generally only grows to 13 feet in length — impressively slithering from a house’s roof into a nearby tree like a scaly monorail.

The incredible sight attracted many oohs and awws, as well as expletives, from a family, who was just sitting down to lunch at the time.

“They’re freaky aren’t they,” exclaims one female onlooker.

“How will we get him away?” inquires a child, to which a woman replies, “We won’t.”
