Los Angeles may be known as the home of the rich and famous, but it is also the hub of the weird and wonderful. There is a man who has achieved legendary status by traveling the city with a pet python called Butterfly. 

“I met him walking the Hollywood Boulevard with my best friend and co-director Tucker Tripp,” says LA-based filmmaker Hunter Ray Barker. “The Snake Man of Hollywood Boulevard is the greatest in the world at what he does. And that’s making people smile.”

Whether the reactions from tourists are of horror or wonder, there’s no denying that OG Black and his albino snake know how to make an entrance. 

“Snake Man’s main motive in life is to make people laugh, and he feels he is blessed to do so with his companion Butterfly. He is a hero in our hearts, a champion of pure laughter, a kind of magic that is hard to find. This is our tribute to him.”
