A soldier was caught on camera as he tackled a King Cobra that had confronted him on a country path by pushing it to the ground before grabbing its head. The footage was captured by an onlooker as the Malaysian soldier, from the Tentera Darat Army, walked down a dirt road surrounded by foliage. In the video, the agitated King Cobra can be seen with its head raised to the man's waist level. Eventually his hand reaches the head of the cobra and as he applies pressure to it, the snake slowly bows its head. The video ends with the man smiling at the camera with the snake safely within his grip.
