Indian Forest Service (IFS) officer Susanta Nanda is known for sharing really interesting videos on Twitter. But his latest post can cause a shiver to run down your spine. Susanta Nanda recently shared a video in which a snake can be seen perched over a woman while she is lying on a cot. The reptile moves to the neck of the woman while she remained in the same position. In the footage, the woman can apparently be heard asking for help. According to Susanta Nanda, the snake moved away after a few minutes without causing any harm to the woman.  The video was tweeted with the caption, “When this happens, what would be your reaction? For information, the snake moved away after few minutes without out causing any harm.” Watch this video here:

“I have heard such incidents from my grandmother. When houses had thatched roofs, firewood stores in corner snakes including Cobras moved around & left the place unharmed if not confronted or scared. They normally come looking for rats or frogs if in open”, an account said.

One individual wrote, “As far as I know, snakes are more afraid of humans than humans are of snakes. I think that they will not attack unless they sense a hostile attitude. So, if possible, a human should quietly move away or keep still. But I will let experts suggest on this.”
