WATCH: Man Jumps on Railway Track to Stop a Moving Train, Here's What The Loco Pilot Does Next

While Indian Railways is doing everything in its power to make railways safer, some things are just out of their control. This clip shows a young man casually stepping onto the track and waving before getting off the track as the train looms closer. While the train driver pulled the break and no one was injured, that is not where the clip ends. The train driver takes it upon himself to teach the reckless man a lesson. He gets down from the train, rushes to the young man, and slaps him hard enough to make him tumble.

Social media users expressed their disappointment over the video. Not only were they put off by the reckless behaviour of the man, who looked drunk to most, but they were also disheartened by the reaction of other people present on site. Instead of pulling the man out of the way, all of them choose to make a video first. A Twitter user wrote, “I don’t know what is the intoxication of alcohol, which becomes life-threatening. Alcohol should be banned because we can’t expect alcoholics to stop drinking. Even if drinking comes at the cost of their or their family’s life. Can some gentleman please explain why alcohol not be banned?”

“If the cameraman wanted, instead of making the video, he could have moved that person earlier,” read another tweet.

Another user tweeted, “The funny thing is, there’s also a reporter and cameraman in the back, and instead of moving that person, they are busy making videos. News is important but a person’s life is not important. It was the prudence of the train driver that saved his life. Otherwise, the man would have died.”

In a similar incident, an SUV narrowly escaped from being crushed by a train. The clip shared on Instagram showed that the car misses getting hit a few moments after being pushed by a truck. The SUV can be seen waiting at the train track crossing, but moments later a truck appears and pushes the SUV onto the tracks. While two men get out of the car to confront the truck driver, the driver of the car pushes the accelerator and saves himself and the car.
