Ashley Gawe, from Oregon, was forced to ask for immediate medical attention when her domestic python, Bart, made a dash for the hole and got wedged inside.

Speaking about the incident on Facebook, Ashley said: ''I was holding my snake and his dumb a*s saw a hole, which just so happened to be my f**king earlobe, and thought that it would be a bright idea to attempt to make it through.''

Bart has since been safely removed from his owner's organ with the help of some Vaseline and string.
