Joanna Gaines sure is grateful for Chip Gaines and his bravery.
This week, the former HGTV star took to Instagram and shared a heart-stopping video of quite the scary discovery in the family's stunning garden.
In the video, the Magnolia founder shares a glimpse of her sprawling flower garden featuring rows of flower beds with a myriad of colorful florets, before zooming into Chip, who is holding up a still moving snake that could be nearly as long as he is.
The video was aptly set to the Foo Fighters song "My Hero," and Joanna wrote: "It was such a pretty evening in the garden until…" along with a snake emoji. "Thank you @chipgaines for relocating the rat snake!" she added.
Fans were then quick to take to the comments section under the post and marvel over Chip's courage, with one writing: "I love how insanely comfortable Chip looks doing this, might as well be a piece of laundry to pick up," as others followed suit with: "Yep, always after the eggs in the [chicken] coop. Yay for hubbies!" and: "The way I was like, this song is a usual choice for the flower garden. Then Chip appears with a snake and it clicked," as well as: "Yikes! That would end gardening for me!"
