The footage starts with the snake slithering toward the entrance of a house. Moments later, the woman and her son came out of the main door. The snake was also seen crossing the pathway at the same time. While the reptile crawls next to the step outside their house, the boy crosses it. Fortunately, the snake detects human presence. Instantly the cobra recoils and spreads its hood in self-defence. 

Watching the uninvited guest, the boy gets scared and attempts to go back inside the house. However, his mother's quick thinking and presence of mind grab and pull the boy away from the deadly reptile. The woman carries her son on her shoulder and runs to safety. On the other hand, the snake slithers away.
