Passengers aboard a United Airlines flight had a moment of terror akin to something out of the 2006 schlock thriller ‘Snakes on a Plane’ after spotting a snake slithering through the aisles as their plane taxied on the runway at Newark Liberty International Airport after flying in from Florida.The incident involving the slithery stowaway occurred at about 1:15 on Monday, with the business class passengers of the Boeing 737 jet screaming in terror and pulling their feet up to avoid being bitten, according to News 12 New Jersey.The snake impolitely ignored the fasten seatbelt signs which were illuminated during taxiing, and eventually moved toward the back of the plane from business to economy class.The reptilian passenger turned out to be a garter snake, a snake species native to much of North America that’s generally not dangerous to humans, and actually helps keep a lookout for pests in gardens.After the flight crew was apprised of the situation, Newark Port Authority Police came aboard and removed the snake. No injuries reported. Police checked the rest of the plane but didn’t find anymore free-riders. The fate of the snake is unknown.Social media users couldn’t help but recall the 2006 movie, and the Samuel L. Jackson line “I have had it with these **********ing snakes on this **********ing plane,” flooding Twitter with memes featuring the iconic actor.
