He lets out a celebratory shout after the stunt. There have been several calls on social media for action to be taken against the man for the stunt.
Here is how Twitter reacted:
Rather madness. The law enforcing authorities must take action against such people. Tantamount to attempted suicide (Section 309 of RPC). We lose our youth to violence, traffic accidents and other mishaps on daily basis. Can't afford further loss. — YusufJameelywsf jmyl (@jameelyusuf) January 23, 2018
Oh my goodness!! His pheran was flapping as the train went over. What if it had got caught in something?! Silly boys think they're invincible. — Hinna (@hinnac) January 23, 2018
These mad people should be put behind bars, this adventure could have been a reason for derailment. — Mah Shooq. (@MashooqAhmad) January 23, 2018
