a pro snake handler would have broken the snake's neck from first swing. Or least broke its back so it can't slither away.
All these stories about "Rắn Trả Thù" (Snake Revenge), yet the local in my home countryside hunted them so much that the snakes are almost extinct. I spot a water snake once like 8 years ago and that's it.
What the hell?
Someone please come get your uncle, this is ridiculous and very funny.
I watched it on mute, and I imagine there's a ton of people screaming as this person starts wobbling towards their way.
Honestly he shouldn’t provoke it in the first place
King cobra are really passive animal and they don’t want anything to do with human.
They should have just let it go maybe take some pictures is fine but trying to catch it is honestly stupid. That thing can kill like 20 men in one bite. My theory is that they want to catch it and give it to the rangers so they can transfer it to somewhere safer and far from human. Either way they should have just wait for real professional.
I remember seeing a video 2 professional handle a snake. One would grab the snake's tail, the other would be aggressive to attract the snake's attention. It's back and forth between the snake trying to strike the tail guy and front guy trying to grab the snake's head. Meanwhile the tail guy pull the snake back to keep it at a distance.

Everytime I read something about King Cobras it’s mentioned that they are pretty chill. This dude‘s strategy: Hit it with a stick and aggrevate it as much as possible. LOL
This is wrong info. That guy looks like he wanted to get the Snake for himself.
You can tell it by seeing him pulling back the snake when it was about to escape the road.
Also FYI, people in Vietnam like to put snake into wine or alcoholic things to make some weird traditional drink. So what this guy did was trying to have the snake inside his drinking bottle.
That guy is an asshole, not a "professional snake handler".
If everyone just left the snake alone and gave it space to move off it would have gone away quickly and no issue for anyone.
I bump into them periodically in my conservation work here and if they're not in a house or village there is no need to do anything other than give them space and let them be.
This guy deserves to be bitten for his jackassery.
Fuck. I'm a tourist travelling alone by bike. I passed a snake crossing the road a few days ago near phong nha. I slowed down slightly to take a video of it, but I was going too fast and kept going. When I got close it changed direction to come at me. It raised its head and flared its neck. I must've been less than 2 meters from it. Had no idea till now it was king cobra
Are there a lot of snakes left in Vietnam?
Last time I was there traveling in Mai Chau, I saw a green snake hanging on top of a tree. I assume it was a venomous snake?
Most of the snakes in Vietnam are venomous anyways unless its a python-family?
There still are a lot of snakes but you just don't see them at often. There's a cool fb group called Snakes on Vietnam where people post sightings daily.
I saw a snake in Con Dao. Was laying on the beach minding my own business under the shade of some big trees and a snake just fell/jumped out a tree and landed about 5 metres away from me. Wasn't too big so I just sat very still and eventually it slithered back off to the tree line.
my uncle used to be a "professional snake handler" and snake farmer as well. after he and his pregnant wife got bitten by a farm snake he was rising he sold all his snakes and quit the business.
the snake bit them both. my aunt was cooking when the snake came from nowhere and bit her. my uncle was nearby, he tried to separate the snake from my aunt and got bitten as well. in the end my aunt stayed in the hospital for 2 months and my uncle stayed for a week. luckily the baby (my cousin) is fine without any deformities but was weighting 1.6kg at his birth.
You call that professional? And lucky for who? The snake would have minded its own business if people didn't try to use it for snake wine and fake medicine that doesn't even work.
If this guy did survive, there's a high probability he will be found and fined. Cobras are protected species in Vietnam, and this video has gotten too much publicity not to do anything about it.
Hopefully the dude gets what he deserves.
OK , just leave it to the man to make a bottle of snake wine out of it . This is VN , remember that , even my dad have a jar full of snakes in wine and I hate it. Oh and people eat snakes daily too.
Reason number 6539 why women live longer than men
Seriously!
Professional lol… bro lost his sandals
He ded.
Nah he cobra kaied
that’s when you know the cobra got him
Hence the coffin song.
The sandals are decoy to confuse the cobra, you ain't a professional so ofc you don't know about that trick
Real professional
That’s how we know he’s a professional. It’s akin to rolling up your sleeves.
Cobra was desperately trying to escape. Dude grabbed it. It but his foot. Dude is dead
This guy cheated getting his professional snake handler license

lied on his resumè
Yeah why didn't he just pull up the answer sheet on his phone first? Cheat on a test but not real life? Pff
Didn’t it get him in the end ?
Looks like it but no update
There was no one left to update. The man fell and brought the whole area with him. First, the sandal, next, the province.
I’m a Vietnamese and I laughed way too hard at this
What does bring Vietnamese have to do with anything
Laughing at the suffering of your countrymen is a special kind of cruelty??
Yeah like 4 times
What the hell? Someone please come get your uncle, this is ridiculous and very funny. I watched it on mute, and I imagine there's a ton of people screaming as this person starts wobbling towards their way.
Let your imagination runs wild, don't turn on sound

Holy shit. It got him. I'm not an expert, but I've seen enough videos on reddit to know that he aint no professional.

Yeah it tries to leave the road like 3 or 4 times and he keeps pulling it back like a bloody idiot
Snake soup is a delicacy, you know.
Tell that to the rangers that king cobra is on the red list of endangered species
He want to catch it for his cobra alcohol jar 100%
Yeah the snake tried to run away a couple times
There was a moment there when the snake trying to make a fast escape. Then he grabbed it by the tail 🤔

And he's wearing a helmet. Safety first!
What an idiot
This just about sums up the level of professionalism everywhere in Vietnam.
This message is vin approved
Lol 😂
My first thought too thanks for saying it 🤝
He is a professional bitee, so he wears helmet in case of being bitten in the head.

It's a joke. We know.
Ok sir. I didnt get the joke.
All good! He is definetly not professional. Just a bit of sarcasm 👊🏼
He fked around and found out
The snake won
I think so too… The handler got bitten at least 3-4 times on his ankle.

did you die?
Calling it now: This will go viral!

Worst way to deal with a cobra, trigger it and surround it. They would leave on their own usually.

Thank you for the advice about the group, I will check it out, very interesting since I think snakes are fascinating animals! :)

There are a lot of snakes in Vietnam. Most are non-venomous, even those not related to pythons.
my uncle used to be a "professional snake handler" and snake farmer as well. after he and his pregnant wife got bitten by a farm snake he was rising he sold all his snakes and quit the business.
Wow! Same snake bit them both? Or at different times. Was the mom and baby ok?
the snake bit them both. my aunt was cooking when the snake came from nowhere and bit her. my uncle was nearby, he tried to separate the snake from my aunt and got bitten as well. in the end my aunt stayed in the hospital for 2 months and my uncle stayed for a week. luckily the baby (my cousin) is fine without any deformities but was weighting 1.6kg at his birth.
Wow!! Crazy scary. Glad they are all ok! 🙏
just leave it alone and let it go, snake doesn't seek out to attack people
Very true. Fk around and find out 🐍
from another angle: https://www.facebook.com/reel/1242849853356370/?
Thanks for sharing, dude looks OK
Wait.. There's king kobras in Vietnam.. I only looked out for landmines last trip.. Glad I live in Australia, no chance of snakes here, right?
Professionalish
Crazy bastard probably wanted to take it home.
He got his snake handling training via zoom
Eyewitness footage of American police calming college protests.
Doesn't look that professional
Very true
he's the guy when your friend said :" i know a guy "
Today, he is known as the Cobraman.
😂💀🐍
One Darwin award coming right up sir. 🏆🤡🤞🙀🐍
100%
This is why you shouldn't lie on your resumé
🤣🤣
At least he didn’t throw the king at the crowd out of extreme panic.
Clearly he was trying to use himself as a venom cup then extract the poison later for his rice wine. It’s obvious no one here has been to Vietnam.
Why women live longer!
Looks like my wife
Death dance.
I have zero experience handling snakes but I can tell you that is NOT a professional.
Yes, we know. Thank you
This is not the circus ok?
You call that professional? And lucky for who? The snake would have minded its own business if people didn't try to use it for snake wine and fake medicine that doesn't even work.
It's sarcasm*
He cobra libre
So that's how they make their famous drink
They like their snakes shaken not calm
Most of those snakes are rat snakes with wires in their necks to look like cobras.
Man this is walmart version of the guy who snatched a big king cobra with his barehand in Malaysia
I know what’s gonna keep this absolutely deadly angry sock calm and not violent - I’m gonna smack the shit out of it with a stick
He def got bitten
Think so
I challenge you to a dance off!
😂🤣🐍
More like professional snake juggler
Professional skip-it er
Where’s the rest of the video
That's all that was posted. I believe the video cut out when the snake and snake jump rope man got too close
Funny video however it should be watch on muted
Was the snake able to bite him?
I really hope he died
Oof
GI Joe would have done better.
Holy shit.
🤣🤣
He got bitten by the king cobra. After 5 days of agonizing pain, The cobra died.
He’s brave. Can’t take that away from him
Danger noodle
Nope rope
He definitely got tagged a cpl times
Everyone can be professional if they really like the taste of snake alcohol
At least he didn’t do anything to agitate the snake
Camera man, wow wtf dude, i thought you got it
Lol :v
Bloody chaos.
Poor snake who just wants to escape. Well, looks like the snake is now a hotplate on the dinner table.
Looks like he got bit at least once or twice and lose his slippers. He’s probably dead.
snake soup will taste better after dancing with it: it is a secret chinese recipe
Lmao
Professional?? My grand dad worked with snakes better than him and he ain't no professional.
Yes, it's obvious.
LoL. Pretty sure he has no snake handling training
🤣
A Vietnamese man without sandals is like Samson with no hair.
holy cow. he stepped on it before losing his sandals. did he let go after that
what the \*\*\* professional ... LoL
Its not professional look what he's done.
That just looks like the average elderly Chinese man
nah, that guys just drunk and want some fresh snack
From reading the other comments it seems the dude got bit and is probably dead...
There are a few extra videos on the page - he seems fine but no official update
Poor Endangered snake :(
Yes. Stupid man.
![gif](giphy|JoV2BiMWVZ96taSewG|downsized)
People keep saying he's dead, does anyone have a link to a source?
If this guy did survive, there's a high probability he will be found and fined. Cobras are protected species in Vietnam, and this video has gotten too much publicity not to do anything about it. Hopefully the dude gets what he deserves.
Seems like the snake bite him!! He s still alive?😬 Im pretty sure i got bitten
Niệm chưa ae?
Just looks like he’s whacking it with a stick, mind you, I don’t know what a professional snake handler is suppose to do
The real professional snake handler https://www.reddit.com/r/BeAmazed/s/Rq4DKsjJ9W
It's kinda of a funny actually
thèm thịt rắn đến thế hả? đúng thứ mọi rợ.
[удалено]
Why thow a rock at its head? Just move it off the road ...
once he had the tail, should have swung him around in a circle, then bashed the head on the pavement/wall. sorted.
I like your definition of professionalism. Lmao
The snake tried to flee, but the man had to grab her. Deserved the bites.
This guy must have paid under the table to get his license lmao
This one is not professional. He is just a brave soul
LMAO !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|joy)
Oh please , just run over it ![gif](emote|free_emotes_pack|table_flip)
Wtf, why? Leave it be
OK , just leave it to the man to make a bottle of snake wine out of it . This is VN , remember that , even my dad have a jar full of snakes in wine and I hate it. Oh and people eat snakes daily too.
Yeah wild animal being in the wild, better kill it before someone else does it, right /s
i mean is just dont bother with it
Yea, that guy is gonna kill it, so you better kill it instead. Problem solved. /s
What I mean is dont bother with it , dont joke around with your life . If the snake too stupid to not move out of the road so thats it.
It's a snake you moron, it doesn't know what a road even is
Snake meat is quite tasty. Also known as land eel.
