A curious footage has emerged of a long serpent sparking panic after slithering inside a house, giving one unsuspecting man the fright of his life. Watch the tense moment when the curious man has a close encounter with a hostile snake, avoiding the sudden snake-attack while managing to keep his cool and retreat his hand just in time. The brave man continued to film the video, as if nothing had happened. We didn’t hear any screams which is weird given the scary predicament he was in! Talk about bravery and nonchalant behavior!

Snakes can be anywhere, from the arid deserts of Australia to the tropical backyards of Florida residents. Those who are unfortunate enough to be bitten by snakes have described agonizing snake bite symptoms such as difficulty breathing, vomiting and nausea, numbness, and organ failure. And even thought here is an anti-venom which has been responsible for the survival of many, if not treated, bites from venomous snakes can still claim lives. From Russell’s Viper to the Black Mamba, there are many venomous snakes. And just to be clear, most if not all venomous snakes are not out to get you. More often than not, they just want to be left alone. A desire that you should heed if you ever come across one. That is if you value your life.

Can you imagine coming to your house one day and finding a huge not very pleasant surprise in the form of a snake at your door? It occurred on February 28, 2016 in Mato Grosso, Brazil. Well, this guy here not only found this giant anaconda crossing the street to get home, but decided to take it! Scary, right? Apparently, snakes are no strangers to this man. To make things even weirder, it turns out he really loves snakes and is not afraid to stroke them! How often do you witness sights like this?

Anacondas are a group of large snakes of the genus Eunectes. They are found in tropical South America. Four species are currently recognized. Although the name applies to a group of snakes, it is often used to refer only to one species in particular, the common or green anaconda (Eunectes murinus) which is the largest snake in the world by weight, and the second longest. The name commonly used for the anaconda in Brazil is sucuri, sucuriju or sucuriuba. Ever wondered what’s the most poisonous snake in the world? Technically snakes aren’t poisonous rather their venom kills you. Some of the most dangerous bites are known to come from snakes. Although not all snakes are venomous, the ones that are may have the potential to inflict a death sentence within 30 minutes. This is the power of one of the world’s most venomous animals.

However, there's more to the story that it meets the eye. After taking it inside, the man called the nearest animal rescue station. As they quickly responded, the snake was back to its natural habitat in no time. Can you think of any similar event in your neighborhood?

Watch as the ignorant man casually films the slithering intruder in his home, and even reaches out his hand to pet the beast, only to compare its body to his hand. Moments later, the snake makes a sudden mode, striking towards the friendly man who obviously overstayed his welcome, ironically in his own house, and goes full attack mode, but fortunately misses. We stopped breathing for a moment! What a spooky encounter!

The ignorant man was peacefully filming a video of the slithering beast, when the crawler decided to go attack mode by curiously jumping on him out of nowhere! Creepy right! Fortunately, the cool man didn’t lost his mind and was quick to act, so he managed to avoid the serpent attack by taking a step back from the big-mouthed enemy. Interestingly, he continued filming the serpent as if nothing had happened! How crazy is that!
