In an act of kindness, a man risked his life to save a peacock stuck inside a well. He climbed down a farm well to save the drowning bird - despite knowing there’s a snake swimming in the water.
The incident took place back in October in Thuraiyur town in Tiruchirappalli district of Tamil Nadu. A video of the rescue mission was captured and now it has made its way online.
In the video, a snake is seen swimming in the well water. Despite knowing there’s a dangerous reptile inside, a man rappels down the well with help of a makeshift harness while others stay up to help him to descend smoothly.
In some time, the man reaches the water, he momentarily freezes – probably due to the presence of the snake. Eventually, he regains his composer and continues his mission.
Finally, he reaches the drowning peacock, gets hold of it, and signals his associates to pull him back up.
The video further shows the man releasing the bird after coming out of the well.
