A young man has been arrested by railway police at Borivali after a chilling video showing him performing a dangerous stunt on a moving train went viral; the clip—captured by a fellow passenger—shows the youth hanging from the outside of a carriage door and balancing perilously close to trackside poles and other hazards while the train was on the move, risking his life and the safety of others for a social‑media reel. Following the viral footage, authorities launched an immediate inquiry, reviewed CCTV and passenger footage, and detained the suspect; investigators say the act amounted to reckless endangerment and breach of railway safety rules. Commuters who witnessed the stunt expressed shock, and officials warned that such stunts can cause fatal collisions with trackside structures or provoke panic on board. The probe is examining whether the youth acted alone or under pressure to create viral content, and police are coordinating with railway authorities to pursue legal action under relevant safety and public‑order statutes. Officials also urged the public to avoid imitating risky behaviour and to report such incidents promptly to prevent tragedies.
