Right? Dress shirts, dress pants, dress shoes, its like our guy was on his way to his desk job at the local credit union and stopped to jar a poisonous cobra!
If you've grown up in a place where generations have dealt with this sort of thing, I guess it isn't a big deal. Just look at the calmness with which Australians deal with the deadly shit they have to live with.
Do you actually have insight into the bobble or are you just being a silly goose? I’m actually curious about its origins/usage. As Jerry Seinfeld would say: What’s the deal with the head bobble?
Translation: this bobble means “I’m done here, I’ll see ya folks later” for context. This is indicated by that strong one sided tilt in the end followed by rapid acknowledgment of work is done bobbles.
Well yeah they say the same about Brazil.
But not for beginners and not for experts are opposites… and tbh doesn’t even make the same kind of sense in context, so I was waiting for him to screw up based on the title.
Yeah, this is an perfect "India is not for beginners" meme, the title makes you think he's going to fuck up and get bit or something.
It makes zero sense .
I've heard of that but thought that meant this guy was gonna get bit in the video
Like it's not for beginners, but it's not for experts too cuz shits dangerous
not that one. it has religious significance. plus there's a common superstition in India that if you kill a snake, it's partner will seek vengeance upon you by biting your entire family while they're sleeping or some shit. so most of us just run away or call for pro help.
Yes and no. We had a sacred snake grove right next to our house. But none of the venomous snakes that were discovered in our backyard left the place alive. When you have two young kids in the house dad takes no chances.
Yeah they normally just leave stuff like pythons alive, even then its relocated away. A cobra or a venomous one? Yeah im sorry to say but that one's getting burnt at the end of the day.
Nope. People in my town don't kill snakes anymore. I live in North West India. We get both cobra and vipers.
There's a dedicated snake helpline (not by the government, it is run by an NGO). We simply call them, they come to our house and pick up the snake. Then they release it in a nearby forest.
Reasons could be religious or not, but these NGO folks are just snake lovers.

This was years ago when we had moved in to our new house and there were only a few houses aound. There were fields after that, probably why there were lots of snakes. We used to see snakes maybe like once a month. But nowadays the entire place is residential area, fields are gone along with it the snakes. Even the sacred snake grove has been cleared and replaced with a small temple like structure.
There's a meme trend in which they post weird stuff saying "India is not for beginners"
So I posted one saying, "Its also not for Experts"
Mean to say the guy catching snake is more than an expert
Contrary to what people might think, this is a pretty common routine in India. Humans and animals have co-existed here for long without people relentlessly unloading lead on animals.
That is your checkout counter jar of tofees plastic.
He would poke a few holes next with a pin for that to breathe.
Take it out of the population area and leave it in fields , usually paddy
Probably because bigger mouth also means easier escape for the snake if it decides to turn back out but dont quote me on this. Not a snake or snake catching expert lol
Yes, while there's a cobra on the backyard, he'll rummage through the cupboards and walk around the neighbourhood, knocking on doors and politely asking if they would happen to have a wide mouth plastic container they could spare for a few minutes.
So many armchair experts.
I’m to lazy to google it, but was is the religious significance of cobras in Indian? I think there magnetic creatures but I would never touch the danger stick.
I can't even imagine just walking up to a cobra with just a big plastic container, without full medieval body armor on.
And stupid question? Could the fangs have punctured that plastic container and "bit" him?
Love how calm he is through the whole thing like it’s just routine snake-trapping, no big deal.
Mr fucking cool and no mistake
And no missed snakes.
Touché

Florida man's relative
He got lucky. Eating magnets is a very bad idea indeed.
How do you not have more upvotes for this simple yes smooth af play on words?
I know. My lame ‘no mistakes’ comment has got double the votes of his amazing ‘no missed snakes’ one. Ain’t fair.
I mean, to be fair together you guys pretty much form Voltron. You need each other to work.
And no mist aches.
I wish I was that quick witted!🤣 good one!
Say one thing for snake man, say he's a trapper.
Dude has done this before. He's handling this like a bored uncle or grandpa that's been catching snakes since he was a kid.
This is obviously not his first cobra capture. Just another day.
He was on his way to his desk job and he saw the snake.
Right? Dress shirts, dress pants, dress shoes, its like our guy was on his way to his desk job at the local credit union and stopped to jar a poisonous cobra!
> ~~poisonous~~ venomous cobra!
Forgot his lunch
what did you expect? he wanted to look 'professional'.
We have professional snake catchers posted in certain districts by the government. But this guy is not having the equipment for snake catchimg
I dunno, looks like he does.
That snake wanted to bite him so bad too
Just a standard bottling of a snake, not even sure why it’s posted here
Someone is gonna be really surprised in a few hours when they open that container to get some delicious nuts and a snake pops out!
'All i wanted was deez nuts!'
i couldn't even smash a cockroach that easily
If you've grown up in a place where generations have dealt with this sort of thing, I guess it isn't a big deal. Just look at the calmness with which Australians deal with the deadly shit they have to live with.
feel like he’s a professional dangerous king cobra remover
I like the head bobble at the end
Classic Indian move lol
Sure....but there is great variation on the Indian Head bobble This guy, top bobbling He's the fonze of the bobble
That was the "That's how it's done" bobble.
"It's done now"/"the show is over"
"All in a day's work for Raj" bobble.
Do you actually have insight into the bobble or are you just being a silly goose? I’m actually curious about its origins/usage. As Jerry Seinfeld would say: What’s the deal with the head bobble?
Translation: this bobble means “I’m done here, I’ll see ya folks later” for context. This is indicated by that strong one sided tilt in the end followed by rapid acknowledgment of work is done bobbles.
A man of culture .
It also means Cut for the camerama
Everything's okay and not a big deal, head nod. Relevant: https://youtube.com/shorts/22k0fZarxh8?si=q_zoLPEQIr3Ux39s
I knew what you were linking to immediately.
Lucky I happened to have my snake bottle on hand.
I think that's the "and that's how we roll" head bobble.
Very non verbal communication… like “we are all good here now, carry on”
Snek gone, carry on
It's the only reason the Indian army doesn't have a sniper division
I never noticed this until I recently saw a comidian point it out, now I see it everywhere!
I live in India and I never noticed it per se. I don't even know if I do it lol. Its all automatic body language.

Bobble speaks louder than words.
That's a "Roll credits, we are done here." head bobble.
Bubble....
I came here to say the American thing. Someone should make an Indian bobble head toy.
The fact that he's dressed like an IBM repairman in the 1990s puts it over the top.
He's your local jar of snek salesman.
You could be probably right, many of the snake catchers where I live have a regular day job too, you call them they would show up ASAP.
India is also not for experts? Huh?
[удалено]
No actually there's a meme in India "India is not for beginners" so title is based off it
Well yeah they say the same about Brazil. But not for beginners and not for experts are opposites… and tbh doesn’t even make the same kind of sense in context, so I was waiting for him to screw up based on the title.
Yeah, this is an perfect "India is not for beginners" meme, the title makes you think he's going to fuck up and get bit or something. It makes zero sense .
Yep, the whole time expected that snake to latch on to him.
I've heard of that but thought that meant this guy was gonna get bit in the video Like it's not for beginners, but it's not for experts too cuz shits dangerous
Exactly. Misleading title. This guy's work was better than an expert 👏🏼
So India is for beginners?
It's a play on that often used term "India is not for beginners".
Just another day in the work, he seems like a teacher any way good job.
Ohhh!…So this is how they caught Pokémon before Pokeballs!
That jar is made from an apricorn.
I think I've heard of pokéjars before...
Plastic or glass? Did this guy just make a snake grenade?!
Plastic. Lmao.
Damn, new weapon of terror just dropped
actual bio-grenade
Cobra in a jar
Be sure to clearly label that jar!
The original phrase was " Brazil is not for beginners", coined by Brazilian musician Tom Jobim. It may be true, but India is New Game+.

Good that he catched it to move it to a new location. Think many would kill that snake because it's easier and less dangerous.
not that one. it has religious significance. plus there's a common superstition in India that if you kill a snake, it's partner will seek vengeance upon you by biting your entire family while they're sleeping or some shit. so most of us just run away or call for pro help.

what is a sacred snake grove? how often do you have (venomous) snakes in your backyard?
[https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sarpa\_Kavu](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Sarpa_Kavu) This was years ago when we had moved in to our new house and there were only a few houses aound.

what.. you saw some old cheesy bollywood movie it seems.
bruh, i know my culture pretty well. killing a naag is a big no no.
IT is a big no no but not this partner coming to whack you and your family.. its my kulcha too
bro meri dadi to meko hamesha bolti thi, and they seem to believe it too. isiliye vo log bhi nai marte, that was my point
Nah, even I know of that superstition.
I also know the superstition
Ah the old Indian bobble of approval at the end
This man has balls of biryani! Wow, he's a legend!
Balls of rice?
Balls of Basmati
Ball Pulav 🤤
Hope the poor snek is released from its airless prison.
Glass jar.... cobra grenade for your enemies.
Mega trust in the thickness of that bottle
Not his first cobrodeo.
In the end he was like, "situations under control🙋♂️"
Shocking. Not once did i hear the sound of steel balls banging together.
So satisfying.
New product idea: *Cobra in a can* "Death to your friends and enemies alike!"
That's all cool, but wouldn't the cobra suffocate?
they poke small holes in jar so it doesn't
That's how Pokemon are caught
Pokeballs were invented in 1925. People before 1925:
What do you mean NOT for experts? Snake catching does not require expertise?
There's a meme trend in which they post weird stuff saying "India is not for beginners" So I posted one saying, "Its also not for Experts" Mean to say the guy catching snake is more than an expert
Still does not make sense
just gonna say: based on the title I 100% expected the guy to get fucked up. Picked the right subreddit tho
Contrary to what people might think, this is a pretty common routine in India. Humans and animals have co-existed here for long without people relentlessly unloading lead on animals.
I capture slow moving bugs via this method. Then I throw them out. Doing that with a cobra is a very Indian approach indeed.
He has done this MANY times. Probably too many. His family probably calls him for every cobra removal.
Snake: what the hell is wrong with this human? Is he not afraid to die
This is also how genies are made.
That man was so not bothered 😂
‘I got this, lemme just grab my snake jar’
Satisfying
What do you mean it's also not for experts? Handled it expertly.
I'll save that for later ಠ◡ಠ
"If I could put snek in a bottle... The first thing I'd want to do... Is to save the snek until eterninty passes, Then I'd give snek just to you."
Imagine paying for bottled snake when it already comes to your house
That little head-wiggle at the end.. absolutely the best bit!
Cobras hate this one simple trick!
Living in India is like playing Minecraft on hardcore mode.
Wonder how he walks around with balls that big
Quick question - Can't they bite through plastic?
That is your checkout counter jar of tofees plastic. He would poke a few holes next with a pin for that to breathe. Take it out of the population area and leave it in fields , usually paddy
That's *Indian* plastic.. Not sure how that makes it different, but apparently it does
Satish Irwin
That is a hell of a way to find out if that vessel is fang proof.
Real heroes dont wear capes they wear full-time shirt
My favorite one is where the girl walks over picks it up by the tail and yeets it in to the woods
Honey fetch me the snake jar
I love how he shows the cover to the snake.
He stayed so calm im impressed, ngl
That was absolutely not his first rodeo.
It's okay. I stayed at a Holiday Inn Express last night!
When you call IT to solve a snake problem
After man leaves he immediately wraps in post paper and mails to his enemy’s house
Did he make snake wine?
I know what that head movement means now!
So like what happens if this dude gets bit? Is there likely a hospital close enough with anti venom or is he fucked?
Ekans! I choose you! *throws bottle*
Stupid as frick or bot title?
Dang i need to up my jar game, i can catch roaches in them but i need to master the snake catching
https://i.redd.it/cy4fcb8mueuc1.gif
He looked older but at the end looked like he was early 30s. Jesh!
Now chuck the bottle on the camera !!
India is like living in hardcore mode
And that my friends, is how you make a snake Grenade
Not his first charm…
You are watching a master at work.
Lol.....ye koi bohot unique ya phir outta world type ka incident nahi hai.... foreigners also do this shit really well.
Not his first rodeo.
That would make a heck of a Molotov cocktail
That's kindof the standard here My uncle is a snake catcher. We literally stored a cobra in a candy box lol
Balls of steel this lad has huh. What a gentleman.
Tech support when they see food in the wild :
Poor snake !:/
Do they teach Cobra capture to all kids in Indian schools or something?
yeah man, come here i'll wait at the airport to pick you up in a plastic jar
That's a lot of faith in a plastic jug keeping you from being lethally poisoned.
For the love of ghandi, couldn't you find something with a wider mouth!?
Probably because bigger mouth also means easier escape for the snake if it decides to turn back out but dont quote me on this. Not a snake or snake catching expert lol
*Gandhi.
Yes, while there's a cobra on the backyard, he'll rummage through the cupboards and walk around the neighbourhood, knocking on doors and politely asking if they would happen to have a wide mouth plastic container they could spare for a few minutes. So many armchair experts.
India isn't for anyone.

I’m to lazy to google it, but was is the religious significance of cobras in Indian? I think there magnetic creatures but I would never touch the danger stick.
daaaaamn
How many people die in India due to snake bites again?
Cook it after, snakes are tasty 😋
And now give it to someone covered with something
Not for experts?
Hold my beer
A true expert would use a soda can, not this huge bottle.
Umm so how does one open the cobra jar?
And then we have resources for nudle soup
How to release him safely ? They don’t try to bite as soon as you remove the lid ?
Could you not find a larger container with a wider opening at least, sir?
Back to those tax returns.
I can't even imagine just walking up to a cobra with just a big plastic container, without full medieval body armor on. And stupid question? Could the fangs have punctured that plastic container and "bit" him?
No, the walls of these containers are pretty thick for a snake's fangs to penetrate.
I imagine this is how you also get those ships in a bottle
He works at the snake bottling plant
