Imagine being mid-climb when you spot a snake where your next hold is supposed to be. Jay (jompanjat on Instagram) recently had this experience on the Nanyang Climbing Wall in the Batu Caves of Malaysia.

“Jumpscared by a smol snake,” Jay wrote in his Instagram post sharing the video. “Sorry for disturbing you!”
