Shocked when the Indian girl used her bare hands to catch the giant king cobra

The king cobra (Ophiophagus hannah), the world’s largest venomous snake, is found mainly in forests from India through Southeast Asia to the Philippines and Indonesia. King cobras can reach 5.6 meters in length, making them the longest of any venomous snake. When confronted, they can raise up to a third of their body off the ground and still move forward to attack.

The king cobra’s venom is not the strongest among venomous snakes, but the amount of neurotoxin they can release in one bite up to two-tenths is enough to kill 20 people, or even even an elephant. Fortunately, king cobras are shy and will avoid humans whenever possible, but they are aggressive when cornered.
