A woman’s fearless move to drag a monitor lizard out of a restaurant in Bachok, Kelantan, has caught the attention of social media users.
In a video that has gone viral on TikTok, the woman is seen rushing towards the reptile before pulling it out of the restaurant.
Her bold handling of the animal surprised many, as monitor lizards are not creatures most people would readily approach.
The clip also drew amused reactions from netizens, with several joking about her courage in confronting the reptile.
“Don’t you dare act like a living monitor lizard. If your brother-in-law marries your younger sister, he’ll throw you straight into the jungle,” one user commented.
“Girl, you must be the second child, right? That’s not a house lizard,” wrote another user, @seliparjepun007.
Others called on social media users to show their appreciation for the woman by giving her post more attention.
“Please offer this woman a high dowry. Don’t even think about bargaining,” one netizen joked.
Another user praised her actions, suggesting that a person’s fear or disgust towards certain animals could sometimes trigger unexpected bravery.
“Hahaha, amazing. Sometimes, it’s because we’re disgusted by something that we become brave without realising it. Once it’s over, she’ll probably wash her hands repeatedly before finally feeling disgusted,” the user wrote.
