There is no end to people's love for their pets, and many take all kinds of care of them. Bathing dogs and cats with soap or shampoo is nothing new. But have you ever seen a snake being bathed, and not just any snake, but a king cobra?

Surprising as it is, it has happened. A video shows a young man bathing the king cobra, black with white patches on its body, in a bathroom. The video has already gone viral on social media, although its authenticity could not be verified.

It would be hard to find anyone who is not afraid of snakes, and people always keep their distance from a snake like the king cobra. Yet the young man in the video bathes the snake with shampoo quite naturally, leaving many people stunned.

In the video he is cleaning the snake's body with shampoo in the bathroom. The snake looks quite calm and even seems to be enjoying the shampoo bath. Fearlessly, the young man rubs shampoo on it and then rinses it with water from a pipe. After the bath, the snake moves away on its own.

It is not yet known where or in which country the video was filmed. Since it came to light some people have shuddered and others have been astonished. Everyone is asking the same question: was the young man not afraid?
