Passengers on a flight from Australia’s northern most city of Cairns had an odd occurrence. During their two hour flight to Papa New Guinea they watched a ten foot python struggle to stay on the wing of the plane and not get tossed off by the high speed winds. One man took video of it as it happened. As the cold winds pushed it backwards, the snake would inch back up and cling to the wing of the plane. I am pretty sure that the passengers where happy that he was outside the plane rather then inside it, but I feel sorry for the snake since he did not make it. By the time they landed the snake was dead. Probably from the battering it took from the wind. It does remind me of that movie “Snakes on a plane” with Samuel L Jackson. I am rather happy that I was not on the flight myself though.
