A woman faced one such incident when a turtle attacked her while she was giving it water. The clip of this heart-pounding incident is going viral online and has left the internet completely baffled.

In the clip posted on Twitter, the turtle is seen be drinking water which the woman is providing through a transparent water bottle. The animal looks quite thirsty and continues drinking water peacefully. A fence separates the woman and the turtle, as seen in the video. She says in the short clip, "He is so thirsty, look." After a few seconds, she pauses providing water to the reptile and pours it on the animal's face. As soon as she does this, the turtle opens his mouth and launches an attack on the woman. Fortunately, she was not hurt due to the fence.
