This is the moment a group of diners enjoying a relaxing evening meal flee in terror when a large snake enters the restaurant where they are sitting.
The footage was reportedly shot at the location in Yunnan, which is an inland province in south-western China, on 8th June.
The silver-coloured snake was difficult to see on the grey-coloured floor, despite wriggling a lot, and people only fled when one of the men screamed as it glided over his foot.
One member of the family group that quickly fled, not named in local media, said: “At first, my cousin felt something cold on his feet, then he looked down and jumped up in fright.
“To be fair, the snake was probably also frightened, so it ran to the pickle jar nearby, and finally it was caught and put into a sack and sent to a distant mountain to be released.
“We were all absolutely terrified.”
Online commentators like ‘Good Fortune’ said: “Hahahaha, the group of people next to them all run in the same way, hahahaha.”
And user ‘Sad Melody’ said: “Oh my god. You are lucky that you didn’t scare people to death. Some people become mentally ill after being frightened too much.”
While the user ‘User Ao1k3mq’ said: “Almost made you a long jump champion.”
