This is the moment two engineers were left seriously rattled when a giant snake slithered across their car windscreen.
James Denton and Morne Aspeling were driving back to their office when the 4ft giant albino snake emerged from the under the bonnet.
James and Morne, both telecom engineers, pulled over and jumped out of the van and called for help.The snake was safely removed from the van and taken to an animal shelter to be cared for in a special reptile-friendly tank.
Mr Denton believes the snake is an escaped pet which crawled under their bonnet to find warmth - but moved when they started the engine.
He said: "As I looked back across the dashboard I saw the head of a snake poking up from the bonnet.
"Needless to say, it was quite a shock and it took me a moment to realise it was real. "When its tongue flicked out and it moved again, we both made a pretty sharp exit from the van."
