20kg mating pythons crash through Queensland couple’s ceiling

<p>It’s snake breeding season in Cairns, North Queensland,<span> and a local couple got the shock of their lives as two massive pythons crashed through their ceiling whilst mating.</span></p> <p>The pair looked up to see the ceiling flex and crack under the weight of the two pythons, who are estimated to be about 20kg each. The pair managed to slither into the couple’s home via the roof.</p> <p>The size of the pythons and the rigorous activity was too much for the ceiling and the pythons crashed onto the floor.</p> <p>Matt Hagan and Jason Legg of Cairns Snake Catchers were called into the home.</p> <p><iframe src="https://www.facebook.com/plugins/post.php?href=https%3A%2F%2Fwww.facebook.com%2Fcairnssnakecatcher%2Fposts%2F2369206379992662&amp;width=500" width="500" height="795" style="border: none; overflow: hidden;" scrolling="no" frameborder="0" allowtransparency="true" allow="encrypted-media"></iframe></p> <p>“Extracting this dynamic duo was no easy feat and ultimately resulted in the ceiling giving way as these snakes made a particularly dramatic entry into the office!” the snake catchers wrote on Facebook on Sunday.</p> <p>“If you are lucky enough to host a scrub python party in your roof space this breeding season (end of July to late September) it can get pretty wild as males fight each other to impress females,” they warned.</p> <p>“Occasionally these interactions can result in strange smells wafting through different rooms, and even structural damage to your house in the form or ceiling stains or cracks.”</p>

Eddie McGuire opens up about his dramatic weight loss

<p>Media personality Eddie McGuire has lost a dramatic 20kg in a matter of weeks by following a strict Chinese herb diet.</p> <p>The Collingwood president will showcase his transformation when he makes a return to the AFL <em>Footy Show</em> this Thursday.</p> <p>The 52-year-old followed the 101 Wellbeing Program by Dr Shuquan Liu, which was the same diet Prime Minister Malcolm Turnbull used several years ago.</p> <p>In the first two weeks, Eddie followed the diet plan of replacing meals with three cups of herb tonic.</p> <p>Eddie explained that in the third week, he was able to incorporate half a cucumber and a 50g serve of chicken into his daily meal plan.</p> <p style="text-align: center;"><img width="297" height="389" src="https://oversixtydev.blob.core.windows.net/media/40692/eddie-mcguire-in-text.jpg" alt="Eddie Mcguire In Text"/></p> <p>The results of the diet were immediate with Eddie shedding 15kg in the first weeks, but he admitted to the <em>Herald Sun</em> that the program was “extreme”.</p> <p>He explained that he had let himself go throughout the past decade and he was left unimpressed with how he looked.</p> <p>“I have probably been the classic case of the person who has put on one and a half kilos a year for the past 10 years and suddenly you look out the window one day and you see a fat bloke looking back at you and you realise it is a mirror,” he said.  </p> <p>Eddie claimed that he experienced no negative side effects whilst on the diet.</p> <p>“It has taken all the heat out of my body, I feel great, I did not feel tired at any stage, and did not actually even feel hungry, believe it or not.”</p> <p>He has continued to drop weight since finishing the diet and has now lost a total of 20kg, despite going on holidays where he says he “ate for Australia”.</p> <p>“The next stage for me is to get myself physically fit again and keep the discipline up and make sure I don’t plonk it (the weight) back on,” he said. </p>
