LOL sorry mate but had to laugh... me spotted python did that to me once, lucky it's just mini handcuffs.

On the subject of snakes that won't let go... listerine mouthwash on the tip of a cotton bud and a quick tap on the nose (theirs not yours) will make them let go quick smart, or if you have methylated spirits around the house it does the job quicker.

or a cold driping/trickling tap,the cold water i've found makes them let go fast

my wife was laughing her head off when she returned home from our oldest sons,to find me handcuffed by one of the jungles as well mate

ah the joys of snake keeping
