Woman lands in hospital after pet snake gets stuck in her ear piercing hole

A young woman from Portland, Oregon, got herself into a bit of a tight spot after her pet snake slithered its way into her ear piercing hole – and got stuck. Ashley Glawe, who owns a ball python snake named Bart, had to go to the hospital after she couldn’t free herself from her pet.

It all started when Ashley was playing with her serpent and it suddenly popped his head through the gaping hole of her stretched ear lobes. After realising that she was unable to extract Bart from her gauged earlobe, she immediately rushed to the ER.

Thankfully, doctors were able to safely remove Bart after numbing Ashley's ear and using a string to pull and stretch it out. Ashley later when on to share her scary story on her Facebook account.
