The saying “it’s not over until it’s over” holds true for many challenging and adverse situations, reminding us not to give up too soon, as there might still be a chance for success. This video exemplifies the incredible determination and resilience of a man who discovers a lifeless chameleon in the bushes. He sprays some water on the creature and proceeds to administer a gentle body massage and even performs mouth-to-mouth resuscitation. He takes the chameleon with him, providing it with all necessary medical care and procedures to bring it back to life, and he succeeds!

The video has garnered numerous comments, and here are a couple of them:

A Life Without Humans @alifewithoutus: This phenomenon is known as anhydrobiosis, allowing chameleons to enter a state of suspended animation when facing extreme dehydration. During this time, their metabolic processes slow down significantly, making them appear lifeless. However, when rehydrated, chameleons can be revived and resume their normal activities, showcasing an incredible adaptation that enables them to survive in arid environments with scarce water.
