A video of a fight between a python and the huge centipede has been shot in Vietnam. The python and the centipede are seen entwined in one big tangle, while the terrible arthropod is waiting for the right moment to sting the snake. The reptile tries to bite the centipede’s armor, but in the end goes down to defeat.

In comments to the video people call the centipede "one of the most terrible creatures" which can defeat even a snake. These creepy-crawly centipedes are also poisonous. Small centipedes eat insects or worms, while larger ones eat snakes and birds.
