The incident took place in Thailand back in 2017. However, the video, every now and then, makes its appearance on various social media platforms.
The clip opens to show a gecko sitting on a pole biting a snake that is coiled around it. The scene continues for a few seconds before a man intervenes. Initially, he gently tries to remove the snake from the gecko’s mouth but fails. Eventually, he yanks away the snake and throws it on the ground. The video ends with the gecko climbing the pool and the snake slithering away, after being separated. What is extremely fascinating to watch in the video is that he does all these with his bare hands.
