It’s an extract from “Les chasseurs de Pythons” (pythons’ hunters) describing the extraordinary traditional hunting method of the exceptional G’bayas poachers, a tracker is using his own leg as bait, with the real risk of his limb being pulled off if the snake is big enough!
. Update (08/03/2011) : youtube video was deleted, so I added a new source.

Ok, that is nuts! Why are they hunting pythons?

The narrator didn’t say anything about that, but I guess they’ll eat it, and use its leather.

Hunting pythons with your own leg as bait–just when you think you have seen it all.

You must really, really, really want to catch a python if you use your own body as bait. Or maybe he lost a dare

This appears to a successful technique to catch the snake, but nonetheless it is a precarious excercise.
