- "There's a big snake in the plane, Jock!"
- ―Indiana Jones[src]
Reggie was Jock Lindsey's pet snake.
Biography
A boa constrictor,[1] Jock Lindsey would often take Reggie with him on trips in his seaplane, letting the snake ride in the front seat. This would terrify and anger Indiana Jones in 1936, who would have to share the seat with the snake even though he was afraid of them.[2]
Reggie was still a part of Lindsey's life over a decade later when the pilot settled in Disney Springs, Florida in 1948 wanting to find Reggie a home. Lindsey even named a steamboat after him.[3]
Behind the scenes
Despite being classified in the novelization as a boa constrictor, the real Reggie was a Burmese Python.[source?] Which of course is a boa constrictor, making this a stupid fact.
