Snakes on a Plane, REALLY!

I was sitting down trying to think how I could make this funnier but I think the article does a good job by itself:

Three-thousand feet in the air on Saturday, [a man] discovered a four-and-a-half-foot black snake peering out at him from the instrument panel of his Piper Cherokee.

He’d already been preparing to land in southern Ohio after a flight from West Virginia.

He tried to swat the snake. But it just fell to his feet under the rudder pedals, and then darted to the other side of the cockpit.

So, while flying the plane with one hand, Coles grabbed the snake behind its head with his other hand, even as it coiled around his arm.

Next, he told the control tower he needed emergency landing clearance — and that he had “one hand full of snake and the other hand full of plane.”

I think Miramax should be investigated to see if they have ANYTHING to do with this.
