People Known him As Malaysia's 'Snake Whisperer' until A Cobra Fatally Bit Him

A Malaysian man who became famous for his snake-handling skills has died after being bitten by a cobra. Abu Zarin Hussin, a firefighter, first shot to fame after British tabloids published a story incorrectly identifying him as a Thai man who'd allegedly married his pet snake. Mr Hussin had trained other firefighters on how to handle snakes. But he was admitted to hospital on Monday after being bitten a cobra during a snake-catching operation.

The “snake whisperer,” had been bitten by snakes several times before and even spent two days in a coma after being bitten by a cobra in 2015.
Last year, he was a contestant on a TV show "Asia's Got Talent," rattling judges and viewers by pulling out a large cobra on stage. The dangerous performance involved bumping his nose against the reptile's head but was not enough to convince the judges to advance him to the next round of the contest. This week was not the first time Hussin had been bitten by a snake. A cobra bit him in 2015, placing him in a coma for two days.
