A video of a man getting bitten in the groin by a snake has recently gone viral.
The clip was reposted by wildlife influencer Mike Holston and showed a man — allegedly from Brazil — seated on the ground as the snake held on firmly to his trousers.
The man tried to remove the reptile, but it refused to let go, causing him to scream in pain.
Others nearby attempted to help by prying the snake’s jaw open with a stick and pouring water over its head.
It’s unclear what transpired before the video and how it ended.
Some netizens pointed out that the snake might be a king cobra — a highly venomous species of snake.
The video has since gone viral, with many netizens sharing their thoughts in the comments.
One netizen joked the snake was engaging with another competitor, referring to the man’s genitals.
