In the UK, we’ve been known to have a bit of situation with crabs getting on and off trains.

But in Indonesia, they’ve got more serious predators to deal with – like this snake, which ended up slithering around a luggage rack after apparently getting out of a passenger’s bag.

The reptile looked at least a metre long and was causing panic in the carriage, until one man stepped in as the saviour of the moment.

If you are feeling sensitive look away now, because he killed it with his bare hands as others could only stand back and watch:

Wearing glasses and a shirt, he didn’t come across like some kind of animal wrestler.

But he picked it up and whacked it on the floor of the train, killing it instantly, then chucked its limp body out the door.

Everyone carried on their trip from Jakarta to Bogor without injury.

The video has now been viewed more than 100,000 times after it was posted two days ago.
