In a recent case, a video uploaded on TikTok (@qrdhawi) went viral after it captured a terrifying yet somewhat comical moment involving a group of men and an unexpected passenger, a snake.

The clip recorded the sound of screams and frantic voices from several men inside a car after spotting the reptile clinging to the outside of the driver's side window. The snake appeared to be resting under the rain guard, with its head moving up and down.
Based on the patterns on its body, the reptile is believed to be a type of python. Although not very large, its estimated length of around two meters was enough to cause panic among the passengers.
During the ordeal, the men inside the car could be heard yelling and questioning what they should do. In the midst of the chaos, one voice stood out, urging everyone to stay calm and not panic. Another passenger suggested driving straight to the Civil Defence Force (APM) office for help.
At that point, the vehicle was stuck at a red traffic light. Once it turned green, another video showed the car moving forward. However, the movement seemed to startle the snake, which then slithered towards the front of the vehicle before it was believed to have entered the bonnet.

The driver eventually stopped by the roadside, but it remains unclear what happened afterward or how the snake was removed.
Many who watched the clip found the chaotic situation amusing, particularly because all the passengers in the car were men who reacted with panic.
While the outcome of the incident is unknown, the video has certainly left netizens both entertained and sympathetic toward the unlucky group of men who found themselves face-to-face with a slithering surprise.
