A holidaymakers was left in shock after spotting something moving behind her as she was posing for a photo bythe iconic Victoria Falls.
While the best part of most holidaysis living in the moment and soaking up the time we spend in a new place, or maybe spending time with friends and family, it can be a nice idea to make sure to get some photos taken so you can look back on your trip when you get back home. Many people also enjoy sharing images and videos on social media for friends, family and followers to see. However, it can be a good idea to look around you before you pose for your camera to avoid any surprises.
Jess Melu from Switzerland was enjoying her visit to the Zambianside of the Victoria Falls when she spotted an unexpected photo bomber when she was looking back on a video of her posing by the cliffs.
"POV: When you try to take a cute cliff video... but Africa has other plans," she wrote on the overlay text of the video, which showed Jess sitting close to the edge of the cliff, wearing a red bathing suit while the large, gorgeous waterfall was seen behind her.
However, not everything was as calm and idyllic as it seemed, as Jess hinted that there was a snakeslithering behind her, without her or the videographer noticing.
Looking just over Jess' right shoulder (the left side when looking at the video), eagle eyed viewers quickly spotted a small snake slithering from the corner of the video so it gets behind the holidaymaker's back before the video suddenly ends.
"Can you spot it? how would you react sitting on the cliff?" Jess asked in the caption of the video. She then added: "In case you didn‘t spot the snake check the left side of my shoulder. I think she was about to attack me"
She continued: "This was one of those moments where you try to enjoy the view… until nature reminds you who’s boss."
Viewers were quickly baffled by what they had saw, with many wondering what Jess' reaction was when she noticed the snake behind her.
"I would fell of the cliff," one person said, while someone else wrote: "I'm so glad I didn’t see any snakes up there! Pretty sure I’ve fallen off the cliff trying to get away!"
However, another person said: "So epic!!!"
"Well played, you’re so beautiful the snake wanted to say hi," a fourth person wrote.
Some viewers also wondered what happened when Jess had spotted the snake. To this, she replied: "lucky I only saw it after the video was taken."
