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.”

Thats the true definition of a nope rope. 😲
dinner
looks like something out of a movie
@jordanthestallion
Aw “dad would be able to catch em”
I’ve never been to Australia but I know a little bit about snakes and that is one large carpet python! I’m guessing the neighborhood pet total has been decreased a bit with that living nearby.
Yes! Finally get to use the machete
Means Voldemort is close by…
My house will be vacant right after I saw it
I don't know if that's honest video but if that's the truth then you need to go ahead and either move or figure that you got to deal with that animal cuz he's huge
is that for real ?
it is really beautiful I didn't know we've gone back to Jurassic yeah I've never seen a snake that big I know that
get your best shotgun you got loaded up with 12 rounds and get ready to go
Just shoot it!!!
'Trust In Me' 😮 👀
Yet another reason to be a gun owner.
Dinner for weeks!
Didn't anyone have a shotgun?
The baby had the right idea. Cry😢! Then pack and move to another country. No way in heck could I leave a window open with just a screen between it and I. 😢😢😢
Exactly little one, carpet snake my big toe! That's a big muscle roof-three-tree will eat you and me snake! Then it's smelling the air and looking at them like it's saying "I'll see ya later mate, I'm just going down here to the neighbors up the road and have dinner"… Next day people are forming a search party for the family of four that vanished in to thin air, leaving three phones,cars,cash and all behind. Two days later Snake-zhan swinging through the trees with his belly ringing! NOPE Y'ALL CAN HAVE IT! NOW I'M SCARED TO GO TO SLEEP! I'm going to put chains and bells on the toilets and drains.
Somebody please grab me one of my guns…
😐
It's just a normal laughter day, while I scream through my phone🙀🙀🙀 id call the police emergency services The navy and interpol to this
Love this. Only in Australia! That was truly amazing! Biggest one I’ve ever seen! However if it were a huntsman that size……… 🤮🤢🤮🤢🤮🤢🤮🤢🤮I’d bomb the whole neighbourhood! 😂
If that was in my backyard that would be a perfect time to use the shotgun I would have split him right in half two shots real quick with an automatic The ones you use for duck hunting right in half
It's hunting for Drop Bears
Inb4 scared Americans talk about there guns
They are just casually looking 😳
“how do we get him away?”
“we won’t”
😭😭😭
Shoot it down. Might get to pets or children.
See this in south Florida all the time
I like the idea of him slithering through the hood at night, silently taking out the occasional cat
What did they do about him?
That looks a lot longer than 16 feet long
"Is he a tree snake?" 😂
Made me look around.
Only the Aussie and Saffa usually look at something like this and then have a cup of tea or coffee discussing an apex predator with kids in tact.
I wonder how long it'll take for that snake to crawl into their home bc that's where it's going!!
Mothfu$&er call Jlo
Wow, that’s one magnificent beast… total respect !
😮😮😮😮
That non vemomous snake is not scary to me compared to the venomous brown or taipan etc snakes and zillion spiders. But.don't let ur kids outside either. He could probably eat a 🐐 .
