Cape cobra infiltrates South African plane cockpit mid-flight
A pilot in South Africa made an emergency landing after feeling a venomous cape cobra slithering on his body mid-flight. The snake was found under the pilot's seat "in a nice pretty little bundle." The pilot and all four passengers emerged unscathed. The South African Civil Aviation Authority congratulated the pilot for displaying impeccable bravery and remaining calm in the face of danger. Local snake catchers were called to the plane after landing, but the snake had disappeared.
