Most viral videos on the internet involve naked women or couples having sex. However, a clip of young men escaping death in the form of a raging train just went viral.

The one-minute, 41-second video shows four boys walking alongside train tracks. One of the boys took the video showing the rest approaching a tunnel. One of them picks a large stick from the tunnel’s floor, but they continue through the dark tunnel illuminated only by their mobile phones, Express reported.

The tunnel become darker as they move farther. The end of the tunnel becomes visible, indicating the daring boys are near the approaching train. The one filming the daredevil stunt begins to shout “train, train, train.”

He then orders the three to run. The train approaches them closer based on the hoot of its warning system. While they were three quarters of the way through the tunnel, the train finally comes near. The four dive out of the tunnel in the nick of time before it zooms forward.

Prior to the train caper, another daredevil biker leapt across a 15-foot-wide pond outside the Scottish parliament. Before the daring leap, the biker in blue t-shirt and dark shorts did a wheelie on the edge of the Holyrod pond.

In July, another group of boys from Dasna and Masuri localities in Ghaziabad jumped off a rail overbridge while a train sped on the Upper Ganga Canal in India. After the video became viral, the district magistrate of Ghaziabad, Vimal Kumar Sharma, said authorities would verify where the video was filmed. More district magistrates and the superintendent police were ordered to pursue action.

Rakesh Kumar, Pandey, superintendent of rural police, said he has warned the locals against sending their children to the canal to do daredevil acts. He contacted the Railway Protection Force to initiate suitable action, Hindustantimes reported.
