A brave villager stuns his neighbours by grabbing wild cobras with his bare hands.

Tha man, nicknamed uncle Tammy, was seen holding the pair of 4ft long monocled cobras with while his family were gathered in the front yard in Kampong Thom province, Cambodia.

He had caught them from nearby bushes and brought it into the open to show his relatives.

In the video, Tammy can be seen holding aloft the reptiles, which were expanding their hoods like they wanted to bite him. He then returned them to wicker cages, where they are kept until he can release them miles away in the jungle.

Tammy's niece, Phary, said: "I have been looking up to uncle Tammy for many years. He is my role model as a reptile professional. He can pick up the snakes and stay perfectly calm without them biting him.''
