A video of a man giving a cold-water bath to a king cobra has stunned the internet. Shared by Indian Forest Services officer Susanta Nanda on Twitter, the 51-second clip shows a man’s strange feat as he pours a bucket of water on cobra snake's head to soothe him in the summers, and then he gently taps the snake on the head. With over 82.4k views, the clip has surprised the netizens as users called the man “a brave person”. Some were amazed that the giant snake had not harmed the man or hissed at him, instead, the reptile could be seen sitting calm and composed gazing in the direction of the man. “This man has made friendship with nature. His Karmayoga is respected by the deadly King Cobra. It is behaving like meeting a lost friend. Amazing,” wrote a user startled. “He touched King Cobra. Wow,” wrote the second dumbfounded at the courage of the rural man. “ “King Cobras are very intelligent reptiles and likes to avoid confrontations. They do not attack anyone randomly. They assess the threat, warn by spreading hood and lifting body (more than half of its length), hiss, etc. Only if they sense a threat, they attack and that to cautiously,” wrote the third educating the others.
