Shocked students found a four-meter-long python curled up in the rafters of a roof.

The enormous reptile was coiled up in a motorcycle she at the Polytechnic of Bali in Indonesia on January 6.

The surprised locals immediately called security guards who worked with local snake handlers to catch the reptile.

Student Kevin Rambi said that there were many people in the area who did not see the snake until he and his friends noticed it hanging on the ceiling.

He said: "We had just finished our 10am class so there were many students in the parking area. We don't know how or when the python got there."

The school called on a snake handler who had it removed from the campus. It was not clear, however, how the snake was able to perch on the ceiling.
