What a way to go.
MAKASSAR - An Indonesian woman has been found in the belly of a giant python after the swollen snake was captured near where she vanished while tending her vegetable garden, police said on Saturday.
The body of 54-year-old Wa Tiba was found on Friday when villagers cut open the seven-metre python, which had been found bloated in the village of Persiapan Lawela on the island of Muna, offshore of Sulawesi.
"Residents were suspicious the snake swallowed the victim, so they killed it, then carried it out of the garden," said local police chief Hamka, who like many Indonesians has only one name.
"The snake's belly was cut open and the body of the victim was found inside."
Some 100 residents, including worried relatives, launched a search for the woman after she failed to return from her garden on Thursday night.
Hamka said villagers found the giant serpent lying about 30 metres from Tiba's sandals and machete, adding she was swallowed head first and her body was found intact.

Exhaust-ing ordeal: Woman gets head stuck in tailpipe
June 13, 2018
WINSTEAD, Minn. — A young woman endured an exhaust-ing ordeal when she got her head stuck in a truck's oversized tailpipe at a Minnesota music festival.
Firefighters used a power saw to free the woman from her predicament at last weekend's Winstock Music Festival in Winsted, about 40 miles west of Minneapolis. Video of the rescue was posted on Facebook.
KARE-TV reports that it's unknown how she ended up with her head in the tailpipe, but alcohol may have been a factor: The McLeod County Sheriff's Office says she was cited for underage drinking and escorted out.

FRESH off her winning pitch to Donald Trump to spring a nonviolent drug offender, Kim Kardashian is mulling her political prospects — and won’t rule out a White House bid.
“Never say never,” she coyly told CNN’s Van Jones in an interview set to air on The Van Jones Show on Saturday night. after he asked if she would run for office.
She quickly clarified that she did not mean she was about to go into politics tomorrow. WHEW!
I just want to help, starting with one person at a time, “ she said. “I think sometimes if more people would just put their personal feelings aside and talk about really important issues that have to be discussed, then so much more can get done.”
According to the New York Post, she said she was motivated to use her position to help free Alice Johnson, a Tennessee granny and first-time offender who had served 21 years of a life sentence for cocaine possession and other charges.
“I honestly saw that if I could use my platform just to do something for one person, that it opens the conversation for so much more and for other people to want to do the same thing,” the reality star said.
shes so good.. she makes me wanna cry!
