The Incident Caught on Camera
The viral video was shared by Instagram page @6memes_hub. It shows a woman standing close to a sugarcane juice machine, likely while it’s in operation. Within seconds, her long hair gets entangled in the fast-moving rollers of the machine. A bystander acts swiftly, rushing to her aid and managing to pull her hair free before the situation turns catastrophic.

Online Reactions: Laughter or Lesson?
Despite the reel being posted in a humorous tone, many users didn’t find it funny. One user commented, “This is not a joke.” Another added, “Brother, do not make fun of anyone.” Some even demanded the post be taken down: “Delete this reel, there is no funny moment in it brother.”
The backlash reflects a growing concern over how dangerous situations are often repackaged as entertainment for views and shares.
A Stark Reminder About Machine Safety
The video has turned into a stark visual reminder of the dangers posed by fast-moving machinery like sugarcane juice extractors. Experts and viewers alike are urging people to exercise extreme caution around such equipment, especially when hair, clothing, or accessories can easily get caught.
The incident could have ended much worse had help not arrived in time. It serves as a critical warning: when around heavy or sharp machines, every second and every bit of caution counts.
