Man Risks Life for Selfie with Moving Toy Train in Darjeeling; Incident Goes Viral

In a shocking display of dangerous behavior fueled by the quest for social media fame, a man risked his life to take a selfie in front of a moving toy train in Darjeeling. The man stood on the tracks of the famous toy train, attempting to capture a picture as the train approached. Fortunately, he managed to avoid serious injury, but the incident has since sparked widespread criticism online.

In the age of social media, many individuals are driven to take extreme measures for the sake of a photo or video to share online. While such stunts may attract attention, they can often pose life-threatening risks. This latest incident is a stark reminder of the dangers involved in such reckless behavior.

Netizens were quick to condemn the man’s actions after a video of the incident went viral on Instagram. One user commented, “Where do such dumb people come from?” while another added, “Zero survival instincts.”

This is not the first time a social media-inspired act has led to a risky situation. In a similar incident, a man from Telangana boarded the Vande Bharat Express to take a selfie, only to find himself locked inside after the automatic doors closed before departure. The man was seen frantically trying to open the doors before a ticket collector arrived to inform him that the exits had been sealed.

Both incidents serve as cautionary tales, highlighting the potential dangers of prioritizing social media content over personal safety. Authorities have advised people to be more mindful of their surroundings and to avoid putting themselves in peril for the sake of a photograph.
