A frighting video that was posted to YouTube in October of 2013 that shows a baby sleeping in-between four poisonous cobras has re-emerged on the Internet this week.

In the video, the baby can be seen sleeping on a cot as four cobras take a clear defensive stance all around the few month old child, almost as if they are protecting it. The cobras do appear to have their mouths sewn together though, a cruel practice that stops them from being able to bite. Why did this even happen?

Watch the shocking video for yourself below.
