Snakes have a reputation for finding their way into the weirdest of places but a video showing a team of medics extracting a reptile from a woman’s food pipe scared its watchers stiff.
In a video shared on a Twitter handle named Fascinating Facts, a doctor is seen using a tool to remove the creature as the woman lies with her mouth open. Just as the snake is half outside, the doctor makes a cringed face and backs off in horror as if she wasn’t expecting it to be that long.
The 11-second-long video then stops, leaving viewers curious whether the snake was a live one or it had died by then.
While many viewers wondered how the snake ended up there, the video’s description seemed to clear the doubts. “Medics pull 4ft snake from woman’s mouth after it slithered down there while she slept,” the description read.
The video, which was shared on Nov. 12, went viral on the microblogging platform with over 16 lakh views and more than 36,000 likes.
The scaly creature slithered into the woman’s mouth when she was sleeping with her mouth open in her yard in her home in Levashi village, in Dagestan, Russia, Daily Star reported.
The video also received an outpouring of comments from the viewers, some of whom poked fun at the woman for sleeping so deeply with her mouth open.
“And that’s why the blanket should go over your head,” a user wrote. “This is crazy, I wonder how someone could sleep so deep and a snake gets into your mouth, a 4-feet snake still you couldn’t wake till it was completely in your stomach. Come on, that’s crazy,” wrote another.
Another user, however, said it wasn’t a snake. “Not sure that’s a snake, I was always sick when I was 7-8 years but one night my dad pulled something huge like this from my mouth, and stopped getting ill since then,” they wrote in their comment.
In a similar incident in September, a viral video showed a doctor pulling out a snake from a woman’s ear with a pair of tweezers. The short clip showed the reptile peeking its small head out and moving its head side to side to foil the doctor’s attempts to remove it from the ear. The video, however, failed to show if the doctor was successful in extracting it.
