Woman's Terrifying Encounter with a Snake Goes Viral

A Shocking Incident with a Snake

Snakes are creatures that instill fear in many. When one unexpectedly appears, people often change their path. If a snake enters a home, it’s common to step outside. But imagine being deep in sleep and suddenly waking up to find a long, dangerous snake coiled on you. This shocking scenario could easily send anyone into a panic. Such an incident recently happened to a woman, and the video of her experience has gone viral on social media.

In the viral footage, a woman is seen sleeping on a cot in an open area when a snake climbs onto her. The snake is perched on her, with its hood raised. Upon realizing the snake is on her, the woman becomes frightened but wisely remains still, understanding that any sudden movement could provoke the snake to bite her.

She calls for help in her local language while the snake remains calmly on her. Nearby, a calf watches the snake with curiosity. This video was shared by an IFS officer, who captioned it on Twitter, asking viewers how they would react in such a situation.

The IFS officer also noted that the snake eventually left the woman unharmed. The video has elicited a variety of reactions from viewers. One user commented, 'This is extremely dangerous. I would have had a heart attack!' Another said, 'If I were in her place, I would pray to Lord Shiva for protection.'

Another individual remarked on the woman's composure, stating that her decision to stay still was wise. If she had tried to push the snake away or moved, it could have bitten her. Yet another user pointed out that snakes are often more afraid of humans than we are of them. The woman’s calmness likely prevented any aggressive behavior from the snake.
