Have you ever seen a dead or dying snake and thought, maybe I can save that snake. I’ll try CPR. No? Well a viral video out of India shows a man attempting to do just that. In fact, it appears his heroic (albeit eccentric) efforts actually worked.
Desh Gujarat reports that a young man, a “rescuer” named Yash Tadvi, rushed to the scene in Vadodara, India after someone found a snake “in critical condition” and called for help. “Upon arrival, [Tadvi] found the snake seemingly lifeless but promptly began performing CPR,” Desh Gujarat claims. “Remarkably, he succeeded in reviving the snake.”
In the video, you see Tadvi holding a lifeless snake, then he puts his mouth around its head and starts puffing air into the snake’s body. Pretty soon, that snake begins wiggling around.

Is this for real? Would that even work? We have so many questions.
Tadvi said: “The snake appeared dead, but when I held it, I sensed it was still alive. I then started performing CPR. I felt immense relief and happiness when the snake revived, and I safely handed it over to the forest department.”
Bravo to this man for even thinking to try CPR on a snake.
