A man has received the shock of his life recently after reportedly finding a huge python living inside the walls of his home.

The snake was found inside the wall

A video has shown the shocking moment a 15ft long python was caught by a homeowner hiding on the inside of his living room wall.

According to Daily Mail UK, Somchai Subdang, 45, was watching TV on Tuesday afternoon when he heard an odd clunking sound coming from the plasterboard.

He put his ear to the wall to investigate and was taken aback to hear hissing noises also coming from the wall.

He says he 'jumped with fright' when he heard the noise in Bangkok, Thailand.

Mr Subdang then called rescuers who arrived and used a hammer to hack into the wall where the massive serpent was found coiled up.

Mr Subdang said: 'I'm not afraid of the snake when it's stuck in the wall, but it could have been scary if it got into the ceiling then dropped down onto me while I was sleeping.

'I'm disappointed that I'll have to fix the house now. But that's better than having a snake hiding in the house.'

Rescue worker Bang Sem, who is seen alongside his colleague in purple t-shirt in the video catching the python, said: 'This was an unusual place to find the snake. We think it got inside though a gap in the wall to shelter from the rain.

'I gave my young son my phone to start recording daddy catch snake. He enjoyed seeing it. The snake was about 4.5m long. It was returned back to nature.

The python was stuffed into a sack and driven away to be handed over to wildlife workers in the Thung Khru district of the city who released it back into the wild.

Pythons and other snakes are common in Thailand and are often found in drains, pipe, trees and bushes.

People living in Bangkok often find snakes in their homes. In 2017, the city's Fire and Rescue Department took more than 31,000 calls to remove snakes from homes.

Pythons such as the one in the video can grow up to 30ft long and often weigh over 200lbs.

They don't typically target humans and are non-venomous but have sharp teeth and can constrict humans.
