Snakes living in sewers and toilets have always been an urban myth but this video is now proof that there maybe be some truth to the myth after all. One person in the replies to Malone's tweet explained how snakes find their way into the toilets of American citizens.

"I live in Houston and everyone always makes sure the toilet lid is always down when not in use. If there's a break in the sewer system, in your own line or the cities lines, they'll come in that way. People are always wondering how snakes get in their homes, this is how," the user said.
