Former Australian cricket great Glenn McGrath took to Instagram to share a bone-chilling video of him taking out a carpet python from his home. In the post, he revealed that he successfully removed all three pythons that had invaded his residence.

The video captures the moment when he skillfully rescued one of these serpents.

"After plenty of encouragement & support from @saraleonmcgrath all 3 Coastal Carpet Pythons that were in the house were safely released back into the bush," wrote Glenn McGrath while sharing the video.

The clip opens to show McGrath trying to capture the snake using a mop. At first, he gently tries to drag it out. But the snake eventually wraps itself to the handle of the mop. At the end, McGrath slowly walks towards the door and takes the python outside.
