Amazing footage shows a man playing with a deadly cobra he tamed and kept as a pet.

In the video, reptile lover Christopher Shannon is seen lightly pecking his eight-year-old pet cobra named Aspire in the chin inside their home in Southern Thailand on May 16.

He said: "Aspire has become used to me, so there's a type of trust that is mutual. You don’t hurt me and I don’t hurt you. We aren’t on their menu so they have no reason to bite us."

King cobras are among the most deadly snakes in the world and are responsible for thousands of deaths every year in Southeast Asia.
