Moment snake wraps itself around TV presenter’s neck live on-air

This is the moment a snake wraps itself around the neck of an Australian television presenter live on-air.

Rove McManus was recently presenting The Project panel affairs programme when he and co-host George Tunny had snakes put on them as part of a segment discussing the return of the Australian version of I’m A Celebrity.

Mr Rove appeared increasingly uncomfortable as the snake wrapped itself around his neck.

Co-presenter Michael Hing said: "Guys this is insane! This is insane to be doing this as Rove is being choked over there."
