New Delhi | Jagran Trending Desk: The incredibly venomous King Cobra has its share of hots and humids, and if Coronavirus has had its moments of reckoning, then the hot and humid temperatures also deserve due attention now that we'll be past the month of May in a week's time. Amid such hot temperatures, a video surfaced on social media, in which a man can be seen giving a head bath to a King Cobra snake on a hot summer day.
The video, shared by an Odisha-posted (IFS) Indian Forest Service officer Susanta Nanda, shows a man pouring water on the presumably dangerous snake through a bucket. Amusing enough, the snake seems to be enjoying the bathing session as well.
"Summer time..And who doesn't like a nice head bath," Nanda wrote in the caption while warning the citizens, "Can be dangerous. Please don't try."
The now-viral video has opened up to various 'OMG', 'Brave' and 'What a great Bath' reactions on Twitter.
"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," a user wrote.
"We have too many of these Steve Irwin kind of guys in India just because they live in rural areas and are not educated, they do not get that limelight," wrote another user.
Later on, although the IFS officer Susanta Nanda said that the man in the video is the seasoned wildlife conservationist from Kerala Vava Suresh, who also happens to be an acclaimed snake expert, but local Malyali media refuted the claims of the man in the video being Suresh, although the video is confirmed to have been shot in Kerala itself according to the Asianet News.
