Nagpur, India: Residents of a Nagpur home were left stunned after discovering a cobra hiding inside a pillowcase. A video of the shocking moment has gone viral on social media, leaving viewers alarmed and amazed in equal measure.
The incident took place earlier this week when the family heard strange noises coming from the living room. On closer inspection, a snake charmer was called in to check the sofa cushions. As seen in the now-viral video, the handler carefully unzipped a pillow and revealed a live cobra coiled tightly inside.
The cobra immediately flared its hood and attempted to strike, but the handler managed to capture it safely without harm. The dramatic footage, posted on Instagram by user @abhisheksandhu1126, has racked up over 16 million views and sparked widespread reactions online.
Comments ranged from “New fear unlocked” to “Never sitting on a sofa again,” as users expressed their disbelief at how easily such a dangerous creature could go unnoticed in an everyday household item.
The family escaped unharmed, and forest officials praised the quick thinking in calling a professional handler. Citizens are urged to remain alert and avoid dealing with snakes on their own, especially during the warmer months when such sightings are more common.
