In 1986, Raghunath K. Singh, a skilled snake handler and animal enthusiast, set an extraordinary world record by spending 72 hours in a cage with 72 of India’s most venomous snakes.
His aim was to show that snakes generally don’t attack unless they feel threatened or provoked.
The cage housed species like cobras, vipers, and kraits, all known for their venom.
Throughout the 72 hours, Singh remained calm and respectful, handling the snakes with care.
He emerged from the cage unharmed, inspiring people worldwide with his bravery and spreading the message that snakes bite only in self-defense.
