EYAAA......Popular snake handler dies after he was bitten by a deadly cobra

A popular snake handler has died after he was bitten by a deadly cobra. Abu Zarin, whose skills saw him progress to the quarter finals of Asia’s Got Talent, was attacked by the reptile in Betong, Malaysia.


The 33-year-old was a firefighter and he taught his colleagues and so many other people on how to handle dangerous snakes without harming them.
His turning point in his career was when he impressed millions of people on TV after he kissed an untamed venom-filled snake.

This will not be the first time that Abu Zarin will be bitten by deadly snakes. The Star in Malaysia reports that he went into a coma back in 2015 after he was bitten by a cobra when he made an attempt to capture in the wild.
The fatal bite happened shortly before 8pm on Monday, and he died at the Sultan Haji Ahmad Shah Hospital. He is believed to have been on a snake-catching operation when he was bitten.

Abu Zarin had earlier been reported in the Thai media to have married a snake. A story which he immediately debunked and claimed it was the work of rumor peddlers that plan on tarnishing his image.
According to the story, which circulated across the country, Zarin was reported to have had the belief that the snake was the reincarnated form of his girlfriend that had earlier been dead girlfriend.
It was subsequently picked up by media all over the world.
In the aftermath while speaking with the BBC, he mentioned that it was all a made-up story:
He said

“They used my photos and started making up stories, saying that I married a snake. How can I be so daft to have done that? I am a learned person and my religion does not even believe in reincarnation”

News of his death has however circulated across the country and a lot of people are already paying their tributes to him on various media
