Samuel L. Jackson has appeared in some truly iconic movies over the years. From the Marvel Universe, to the epics of Quentin Tarantino, to the brilliant Snakes on the Plane, the actor has delivered timeless performances. But why are we talking about this? Because a South African pilot got to walk a bit in Jackson’s shoes last week when he had to make an emergency landing after he claimed a deadly Cape cobra had slithered on his back and had moved under your seat.

Upon completion of the landing, the pilot’s plane was searched but found no sign of the poisonous snake, raising the question of whether the snake was present in the first place.

Anyway, Rudolph Erasmus, the pilot who reported the snake, shared his story of how he approached his plane landing when he was in danger of being bitten by the cobra. According to the Sky News report, we’re told he wrapped his legs in a blanket and winter coat, then kept a fire extinguisher, insect repellent and a golf club handy in case the snake decides. to make a second appearance. .

Since then, engineers searched the plane for two days and found no sign of the cobra, which Erasmus mentioned saying: “I hope to find a place to go, but not my plane.”
