A video showing a girl hanging from the top of a building in Pune, supported by a young man holding her hand, has gone viral on social media. The reckless stunt has drawn significant criticism from users, with many demanding strict action against those involved.
The video’s caption, translated from Marathi to English, reads, “All because of Reels. It’s the height of stupidity. They must have never read about security, care! Venue – It should be Daripool in Pune!”
The footage begins with a teenager lying on his stomach at the building’s edge. As it progresses, the girl is seen descending while gripping the boy’s wrist, suggesting a “grip strength check.” As she dangles precariously, the camera captures several people, likely their friends, recording the stunt from different angles on their smartphones.
