Using a long pair of tongs, the man offers a dead rat to the snake; however, the situation quickly spirals out of control when, during the strike, the snake bites the man’s hand instead of the rat. To make matters worse, the reptile quickly wraps around his arm, making it difficult to free himself.
Although the snake is not venomous, the shock and pain caused by the bite are certainly noticeable in the video, which has been generating a lot of buzz.
In the comments, one user even speculated that the snake might have missed its target during the strike: “What’s funny is that it might not have been intentional; snakes have very poor eyesight, so it probably just missed the target,” he said. “Who likes dead animals is a vulture,” joked another. “She just wanted to give a little kiss,” commented a third.
