A brave father has told of the terrifying moment he saved his four-year-old son from a 15ft scrub python by killing it with a sledgehammer.

Evan Thompson rescued his son Clifford after the beast struck during their housewarming in Airlie Beach, north Queensland last weekend.

Mr Thompson saw the snake with its jaws locked around his son as it tried to drag the terrified youngster away.

Recalling the ordeal on Sunrise on Monday morning, he said: ‘Clifford was holding onto the side of the boardwalk and it was pulling him, literally, pulling him under.
I ran straight up and punched it at that stage and it let go.

‘But as soon as I let go, it curled right back up and bit him again. So I grabbed it, pretty much, as hard as I could and just bent it back to get it off him out.

He added: ‘That thing wasn’t going it wanted to eat my child.’

Mr Thompson told how he then resorted to punching the snake in the head.

He said: ‘I punched it in his head and it let go, but within a second or two, it bit him again on the upper right leg, a bit higher than where it got him initially, and it started pulling him off the boardwalk into the bush where it properly would have liked to wrap him up.
