Nothing To See Here…Just A Giant Python Swimming With A Small Child

Most of us would be lucky to live our entire lives without having to swim with a snake, accidentally or otherwise.

However, not all snakes are like Sumatra, an eight-year-old Burmese python. Sumatra has been around children and small animals her whole life and she has never killed or harmed a living thing, even if it’s her dinner. Her owner goes ahead and does that as humanely as possible before she eats.

In fact, she currently does a booming business making appearances at birthday parties. In the video below, you can see Sumatra at work in Redding, California, swimming alongside a young girl.

As freaky as this may look, it’s actually kind of awesome. Sumatra seems pretty calm and collected if you ask me!
