Enjoying a Moment...with Snakes?

As someone who has a very small but very real fear of snakes, I still enjoy the various Indiana Jones attractions around the different Disney theme parks. As long as I am not up close and personal with those snakes!

The attraction in Disneyland Paris, as you know, is a rollercoaster so there really isn't any animatronic snakes to be scared of. However, I managed to take this Moment before I boarded the attraction, and it does beg the question why did it have to be snakes?
