How’s this for a way to avoid your taxes? An Indian man has taken things to the next level by releasing 40 cobras in his local tax office.

The man known only as Hakkul, was angry that local officials in the state of Uttar Pradesh had failed to act on an application for land, and also accused bureaucrats of demanding bribes. He brought three bags of the very dangerous snake into his local Government Land Registry Office, and then let them go.

Check it out! Officials are jumping on tables, and the snakes looked angrier than the dude who dropped them. Take that, SARS.
