Video Of Man Holding King Cobra With Bare Hands Will Send Chills Down Your Spine
The video, shared by IFS Officer Praveen Kaswan, shows the man's fearless composure who calmly grips the massive King Cobra.
What is the first thing you would do if you get to see a live King Cobra in front of you? That's exactly what Indian Forest Service (IFS) Officer Praveen Kaswan has wondered. The Forest Officer, who keeps stunning us with extraordinary videos from the animal kingdom, has done it again. In the latest, Kaswan shared a clip of a man holding a King Cobra with his bare hands.
King Cobra is considered the world's longest venomous snake and among the heaviest. The 11-second footage, shared by Kaswan, beautifully depicts the man's fearless composure. He calmly grips the massive reptile whose enormous size has left viewers jaw-dropped.
'If you ever wondered about the real size of King cobra. Do you know where it is found in India? And what to do when you see one!!" Praveen Kaswan wrote in the caption of the video.

No wonder social media users were thrilled to watch such a clip. While the exact location of the video could not be ascertained, King Cobras are by and large found in the forests of the Western Ghats, the Northeast, and parts of Odisha.
'Q: what do you do when you see one? A: Run, run, run as far away as possible," a person wrote in the comments.
'Mostly western and eastern ghats," another user said.
'Those who get this darshan and are aware about escape velocity," an individual hilariously added.
A user suggested, 'I have seen one in Western Ghats. The best thing to do is be slow and put distance between you and Cobra."
In the comment section, a person named Praveen Singh dropped another King Cobra video and said that it was clicked by him in Himachal Pradesh. The video, which was taken from a distance and posted in 2021, showed the reptile crawling up a cliff.

3 Bathinda sisters defy odds to clear UGC-NET
Agency: PTI Bathinda, Jul 27 (PTI) Three daughters of a daily wager mother and 'granthi' father, bruteforced their way into academics by clearing the UGC-NET, despite tough odds. Rimpi Kaur, Hardeep Kaur, and Beant Kaur, aged 28, 23, and 26, hail from Budhlada in Mansa district, the least literate district in the state. The three cleared the University Grants Commission-National Eligibility Test in different subjects. The results of the exams conducted by the National Testing Agency were declared recently. 'My elder sister wants to be a professor in computer science, while my younger sister, Hardeep Kaur, and I are working hard for a JRF (Junior Research Fellowship). We are confident we will get it," Beant Kaur said. 'We know that only studies can take us out of poverty," she said, attributing their success to hard work and determination. The three sisters also have a brother, who has been dealing with a health issue for the past some time. The youngest, Hardeep, cleared the UGC-NET for the second time in a row and is training her eyes on getting a JRF in Punjabi. Bikkar Singh, their father, said he was glad to see her daughters getting what they wanted. 'The sole credit is their hard work. Their own determination has led to their success," he said. 'All three daughters have made me proud." Bikkar Singh said the three worked in a private school for some time to meet their expenses. The candidates, upon clearing the UGC-NET, become eligible to apply for the post of assistant professor. Those who qualify for the JRF can also receive a monthly stipend to pursue research and a PhD.
