The video of the men attempting to face a dangerous snake showed how quickly the tables turned. One of the men in the video had an unconventional method to try to protect everyone from the snake.

In a TikTok video by @zibuyilesikhosana people were gathered in a room after realising there was a snake. One of the men tried to use a slingshot to get the snake out of its hiding spot.
