PSA: if you see a snake, do not touch the snake.

YouTuber Brian Lucas uploaded a video of his "friend's mom" who was messing with a large snake in Alabama.

The woman thought it would be a good idea to touch the snake's tail. You can probably guess what happened next.

Thankfully, the woman and the snake look unharmed.
