The video is posted on an Instagram page with a simple caption that reads “Snatch and grab”. The video opens to show a man climbing up a flight of stairs when suddenly a monkey jumps in front of him and snatches his glasses. Taken aback, the man looks confused about the situation but eventually tries to take back his specs. Expectedly, the monkey refuses to give it back. However, a woman comes to his rescue. She gives two fruits to the monkey and when the animal gets distracted, she quickly takes back the glasses.
