This is the moment a snake catcher in the Indian state of Tamil Nadu removed a massive cobra from a residential house.

Footage filmed on July 24 in Cuddalore shows Selvam, the snake handler carefully picking up the dangerous reptile with his bare hands and then coaxing it into a plastic bottle.

Swathy Reddy, the filmer, told Newsflare: "It was three feet long and initially immobile as it swallowed a big rat.
