The patients and onlookers stood at a distance from the man, fearing that the reptile would attack them.

A man was seen holding Prakash's hand, and he was guided to an isolated area to ensure the safety of everyone on the premises.

The man's next move was even more unexpected as he was captured lying on the floor, tightly grabbing Russell's Viper with his right hand.

Another video showed Prakash lying on a stretcher with the snake. Even though he seemed to be in pain he did not let the reptile go out of his hand.

The doctor treating him said it would be difficult to treat him if he continued to hold the snake. He finally let the snake go. The condition of the man is unknown, but reportedly he is still under treatment.

The Russell's Viper is a highly venomous snake from the Viperidae family. It is found in open areas from India to Taiwan and Java.
