Women escapes unhurt after train passes over her body; video goes viral

A video capturing a woman's astonishing escape after a goods train rolls over her body has gone viral on social media. The 30-second clip begins with a goods train moving slowly through a junction in Navandgi, Telangana's Vikarabad district. The camera zooms in on the tracks where the woman is lying flat as multiple train coaches pass over her.

The woman remains perfectly still on the gravel as the train's wheels move just inches from her. Although she tries to lift her head at one point, a man filming the incident advises her to keep it down. After a tense few seconds, the train passes and she safely gets up from the tracks. Her companion, another woman, is seen waiting beside the tracks.

ET Online has not verified the video independently.


Reports indicate that the woman fell while crossing the tracks with her friend. Realizing the approaching train, she chose to lie down on the tracks to avoid being hit, ultimately surviving the ordeal unharmed.
