@Ishemarw commented:

''Bro, he swam over an animal he didn’t know was there and it stabbed him in the heart he wasn’t playing any games.''

@themasonius observed:

''Notice how it never Flared its hood? Cuz It’s a captive-bred animal that’s overfed. Prolly used to some handling when cleaning the enclosure. It’s too large. Probably defanged too. It’s a common practice to do that in the illegal animal trade. In the wild, this would be impossible.''

@kaiser_kostbar said:

''That cameraman gets mind, I go dey the next street zoom the camera. See the size of the snake bro.''
