This viral clip of a baby playing with a python is a health & safety nightmare

There’s a lot of talk about combating childhood obesity by getting children off their phones and games consoles and out into the fresh air. One family has clearly taken that too far, judging by this viral video. If you don’t like snakes, look away now – and why did you click on a link with “python” in the title?

Finally, a child who plays without a cell phone! 😁 pic.twitter.com/OtO0IyB0I9

That kid is having the time of his life – although the snake seems less enthusiastic. These are our favourite reactions to this live version of Jungle Book.

Inevitably, there was a programming pun.

Python is so user-friendly even a child can use it. https://t.co/qXTLnJnAWV

We give it a C++ for effort.
