>>I had a normal 2 finger grip on him until he squirmed upside down.

I'm not sure if that makes me feel any better... That not only means your grip wasn't secure, but the only way I can see transitioning from a "normal" grip to that one involves his head passing between your fingers and past your palm while you have very little control over it.

Please, consider investing in some hooks and keeping your hands away from the snake. Two good ones will cost you about what 15 minutes in ICU would cost (just the room, not counting other minor things like AV and doctors).
