A bizarre video has emerged of a man walking on broken glass while holding five snakes in his mouth.

The footage, shot earlier this year by activist Arteval Duarte in the State of Para, Brazil, shows him holding the five snakes by their tails in his mouth while he walks on broken glass bottles.

“The Ninja of Serpents”, as he calls himself, is an advocate of the Amazon Rainforest and tries to raise awareness about deforestation through his work with dangerous and poisonous animals.
