In the world of the internet, where peculiar trends often take center stage, a recent viral video has managed to capture the attention of netizens worldwide. The video in question shows a woman in a seemingly peaceful coexistence with a menacing King Cobra, even going so far as to plant a kiss on its head. As the video circulates, sparking intense reactions, many are left scratching their heads, labeling the encounter as nothing short of bizarre.
Even while those who perform stunts or are daredevils are often recognized for their daring and courageous talent, it's important to remember that some acts are just "too much" to be called stunts at all. In the video, the woman was seen kissing a massive King Cobra on its head—of all places—proving something strange. Her audacious act of planting a kiss on the serpent's head challenges conventional perceptions of risk-taking and prompts questions about the welfare of both human and reptile.
Known for its powerful venom and characteristic hood, the King Cobra is a poisonous snake that may be found around the world. They make a defensive display by raising their bodies and spreading their hoods when they feel threatened. They mainly use the strong neurotoxins in their venom to immobilize victims.

The user "Aulia Khairunisa" posted the video on the social media site Instagram. "Have you been romantic yet?" was the caption for the post. More than 17,000 people liked the video when it was first uploaded.
As usual, many users offered their opinions in the comment area. One wrote,This is absolutely amazing but it’s very stupid idea 👎 to kisses 💋 a king cobra 🐍."
“The King Cobra teeth (fangs) are obviously removed,” a user said. “Me with my ex. Also, this is so dangerous. Please don't do these stunts. Also, you must be removing the snake’s poison. So that is also animal cruelty,” added another person. “You risked your life with a cobra, no, okay! It's ok with your mouth,” another wrote.
While some condemned the act as cruelty towards animals, speculating that the woman may have extracted the snake's venom beforehand, others criticized her motives, accusing her of exploiting the encounter for the sake of internet fame and validation.
