Cobra pose seems like a very simple yoga pose and even a three-year-old can fake it. But to do this yoga asana correctly, you have to understand the dynamics of how the arms and shoulders affect the spine.

Watch this video a few times and pay special attention to the C-curve/backbend in the upper back and you will C the difference (see what I did there...? ๐Ÿ˜‰).
