The 57-year-old man was on holiday with two relatives, enjoying a traditional show when he was enticed by the snake charmer performing at his hotel in Hurghada on the Red Sea. 

Two snakes were draped over the necks of other audience members, Bavarian police said. 

The snake charmer then let one of the snakes crawl into the trousers of the German man, where it sank its teeth into his leg.

The victim immediately showed signs of poisoning and went into shock. He was resuscitated at the hotel before he was taken to hospital.

The man, who was not named in the police statement, came from the Unterallgäu district of Bavaria. 

Police and prosecutors are investigating his de@th and are awaiting the results of a toxicology test. 

There have been no arrests, so far in the investigation.
