10 Truly Insane Ways People Have Died

7. Possessed By A Snake

In 2013, a 23-year-old man named Takuya Nagaya began violently slithering on the floor of his home, telling his parents he was a snake. Naturally, they were a little worried, and while most families would, you know, take him to see a mental health specialist; his mother automatically assumed he'd been possessed by a snake demon. It seems the best way to get rid of snake demons is to beat the hell out of the individual; head-butting and biting them until the evil reptile spirit leaves the body. This is exactly what Takuya's father did for the next two days, and it's safe to say the snake was well and truly destroyed... along with Takuya himself.
