We keep coming across questionable activities from people in an attempt to create viral content on a daily basis
In a rather bizarre turn of events, a man on a Hero Splendor tries to two a locomotive. Now, I have reported innumerable instances of people performing strange activities to create viral reels and videos for social media. Their aim is to boost followers and gain views. However, some of them are willing to go to any lengths to achieve that. During this time, they even risk their health and safety and the health of their automobiles. This is one such case. Let us delve into the specifics here.
Man on Hero Splendor Trying to Tow Locomotive
The details of this stem from new24official on Instagram. The visuals capture the man in action. He is sitting on his Hero Splendor. There is a colossal train compartment behind him. In fact, it has the Indian flag and even reads Tuglakabad. The man has tied the rear end of the motorcycle to the front end of the train compartment. Then he begins to accelerate hard. After a while, the bike stands on a single wheel and he comes off it. But he still keeps on accelerating.
As expected, the locomotive refuses to move. We have seen many cases where piddly bikes are able to pull large cars and SUVs. However, this doesn’t mean that they can tow just anything. It is relatively easy to pull a vehicle even if it is slightly larger than the vehicle pulling it. But to think that a bike will be able to pull an entire train compartment is nothing short of lunacy. Still, people attempt such acts just to make something that will circulate on social media easily.
Our View
I would like to encourage our readers to never attempt anything like this just for social media engagement. You must consider the consequences of your actions. Also, risking your safety and the well-being of others or your vehicles is not worth the temporary validation you get on social media. If you find anyone endangering the lives of others for reels, make sure to report them to the authorities so that appropriate action can be taken against them. That is the only way to safeguard our roads.
