"What's the plan here mate, what are you doing?" Irwin asked the snake.

Then, as Irwin continued to film the snake, it curled up inside one of Irwin's boots.
"I don't know what the plan is there buddy, you're not going to fit in there," Irwin said as he watched the snake make a home in his boot.
"What are you doing? Get out of my shoe," he added.
Scratching his head, Irwin explained that he needed to "fish this guy out of [his] shoe".
"I don't know how I'm going to do this."
He proceeded to pull the snake out of his boot. (TikTok/ @robertirwin)

"Hi, this is Robert, and I'm going to show why you should always check under your weights before that next set," he said in the video.
He proceeded to move one of his weights to reveal a massive huntsman spider hiding underneath.
After moving the weight, the spider began to crawl around on the floor as Irwin continued filming.
