No One Get All Pissed Off At Me For Linking This, Okay?

I didn't film it. And I'm not "encouraging" it.

But it is going to bother a lot of you.

For reasons I cannot fathom, some snake handlers/parents thought it would be a pretty cool idea to square off a baby against a cobra.

If there's any good news here, it's that babies are apparently indestructible and this particular one has mongoose blood in her. She's not afraid of the cobra; quite the opposite.

Bad Taste/Child Endangerment Content Warning. No jokes on this one; it's a nasty crime in progress.

Defanged? Readers who are smarter than me point out that this, being a "performing cobra," is likely defanged. I thought the baby just had a tough noggin.

Obviously, that's still pretty bad. But a hell of a lot less bad. Guess I should have figured that out myself.

Thanks to dri, who also had nothing to do with this.
