Last week, a video went viral showing a Karnataka man's stunt with three cobras backfiring.
This man named Maaz Sayed, a snake enthusiast from Sirsi, uploads videos doing various stunts with snakes on his YouTube channel which has over 800 subscribers. However, the last stunt he performed was handled in a horrific manner.
This is just horrific way of handling cobras¡

The snake considers the movements as threats and follow the movement. At times, the response can be fatal pic.twitter.com/U89EkzJrFc
He was seen crouching in front of the snakes, pulling at their tails and moving his hands about - all gestures that the cobras could have perceived as threatening and reacted aggressively.
Unfortunately, this time his stunt didn't end up well for him when one of the snakes suddenly struck him. Footage of the same went viral where a snake can be seen jumping at the stuntman and biting his knee. The reptile refused to let go even as the shocked man tried to pull it away.
