A brave passerby removed a snake lurking in the bushes.

A motorist witnessed the man removing the reptile, which was clinging to a small tree, in Kalasin, Thailand, on June 6.

Footage shows the doting local pulling the snake out by its tail. After freeing it, he immediately swung the snake above his head while walking toward a vacant area to safely relocate it.

The man said that he swung the snake to prevent it from attacking, knowing that rapid spinning can make the animal dizzy.

Snakebites are painful and can range from nonvenomous bites causing minor injuries, venomous bites causing severe or occasionally painless effects, to dry bites where no venom is injected, leaving little to no symptoms.
