The quest to get likes and reactions on social media can make people do bizarre things. The flood of viral videos online is proof that there’s no limit to this trend of doing out-of-the-box things online. In another such instance, a video, shared on Instagram, shows a woman posing dangerously close to a moving train, just to get the perfect click. In the clip, the woman is seen posing for the camera with a moving train in the backdrop. But the act surely did not go down well with the train driver. As the video progresses, it shows the train driver pushing the woman just in time to save her life.
“Some people are oblivious to the world around them,” read the caption of the video.
The video captured the attention of viewers who praised the train driver’s swift action. Many chimed in to laud the train driver, while others criticised the woman for her reckless behaviour near the train tracks. A few users wondered why the person taking the woman’s photo did not alert her to move aside.
“Amazing survival instinct on both her and the dude she was speaking to who was FACING THE TRAIN,” a user wrote.
“That was a very gentle and nurturing kick, to be honest,” added another.
A person remarked, “The fact that his foot could touch her…she’s definitely too close!!”
“And they say the perfect job doesn’t exist. Great job as a train operator!” posted another.
A question that echoed through the minds of many, “That guy’s right there facing the train and didn’t warn her?”
“Some people are like on another planet. Common sense is becoming extinct,” said an individual.
The clip has received over 1.3 lakh views so far.
