This is the terrifying moment a rampaging python drops from the ceiling and bites a rescuer's foot.

The 14ft long serpent had been curled around the wooden beams in the roof of a home in Chachoengsao, Thailand, when the owner’s 10-year-old daughter spotted it in June.

Her father Sirichai Wongsuu, 35, feared it could have eaten her - and called rescuers who tried to free the reptile.

But as they pulled it free the python suddenly dropped to the ground and began striking at people as they screamed in terror and jumped off the ground to dodge its attacks.

Dramatic footage shows the moment the furious reptile sank its fangs into rescue worker Danu Pon, 40, when he tried to stamp on its head to control it.

With blood pouring from his foot he hobbled away, as the snake continued trying to attack locals in the room who struggled to snare it.
