Upon hearing "wrap", people usually associate it with vinyl wrapping which is pretty common these days. 

Wrapping not only protects the paintwork but also allows the revamping of the vehicle's appearance. 

However, the "wrap" on this Honda Shuttle is not what we expect it to be...

Watch this 13-seconds video to find out what is "wrapped" on this Honda Shuttle's rooftop:

What happened?

In this bizarre occurrence, a reticulated python (One of Singapore's most common snake types) is spotted on the roof of a slow-moving Honda Shuttle. 

You can see the driver's concerned look upon realising that he had somehow attracted a group of passersby, who were filming him for god knows why.

The short clip ends with the Honda Ssssshuttle driver still unaware of the situation and driving off with the python still on its roof. 

What a snakey (sneaky) python!!

Filming isn't the utmost priority

Yes yes, I know. If filming was not the priority, I wouldn't even have a blog post to publish at all.

Well, I may be no expert, but the logical action from those passersby should be to alert and stop the driver. 

Otherwise, the python might fall off and end up as roadkill. Or worse, it may fall onto the road and subsequently cause motorists to swerve away from it.

Netizens' comments

What a pity that whipping out your smartphone to film is the first priority during such situations.

Tell me about it. I bet he was thinking "Ji pai siao liao", which translates to "this time siao/crazy already". 

Why you gotta be so savage?
