Muthafuckin’ snakes on a plane…almost.

May 24th, 2007

I am sure this is being blogged to death by B-movie watchers every where, but I just can’t resist:

CAIRO, Egypt (AP) — Customs officers at Cairo’s airport have detained a man bound for Saudi Arabia who was trying to smuggle 700 live snakes on a plane, airport authorities said.

The officers were stunned when a passenger, identified as Yahia Rahim Tulba, told them his carryon bag contained live snakes after he was asked to open it.

Those crazy Egyptians!

As a “what was he thinking?” classic, this is rather awesome. Certainly better than the Samuel L. Jackson film this man no doubt secretly intended to imitate. That movie seriously did a Showgirls. That movie sucked so bad (”it’s a drama! no, it’s a comedy! no, it’s a horror flick! no, it’s a…”), I felt like I had just had the life sucked out of me like the Dread Pirate Roberts.

But like him, turned out I was only mostly dead. I still blame Kevin, though.
