Russian term or phrase: испытать удушающий массаж змеями
From a description of a challenge on a reality tv show. I'm not sure whether or not a literal translation of massage would be appropriate here: eg) experience/suffer through a suffocating massage by snakes.

Thoughts?

Thanks in advance.

English translation:Experience a constricting snake massage
Explanation:
What is the tone? More playful/ frightening/ intriguing?

Maybe a play on words here would work? (Like constricting from Boa Constrictor :)
