Who is a "snake charmer"?
A snake charmer is a performer who appears to control a snake, often using a flute-like instrument called a pungi. During the performance, the snake charmer plays music, and the snake, usually a cobra, seems to respond by swaying or rising from a basket. This act is a traditional form of entertainment in some cultures, particularly in South Asia and North Africa. Despite the appearance of danger, the snake charmer typically has extensive knowledge of the snake's behavior and often takes precautions to ensure safety during the performance. The act is designed to fascinate and intrigue audiences with its blend of music, movement, and the unique presence of the snake.
