In a video shared to social media by [_Channel 7 News Brisbane_](https://www.businessinsider.com.au/video-australian-grandma-removing-two-pythons-from-a-barbecue-2018-8 "undefined"), an 81-year-old grandma from Down Under who goes by the name Faye Morgan, wrangles, not just one, but two very large pythons from an outdoor grill before kindly depositing them in a large box. While there was a younger man who held open the box for Morgan, Morgan manages to grab both snakes by herself and skillfully put them in the container without any harm to her or the animals. May we all age so gracefully.
