 A 16-year-old boy in Chennai was injured after being hit by a pillar while dangerously riding on the footboard of a moving train.

 The boy, Abilash, a Hotel Management student, was attempting a stunt with his friends, which was recorded on video and has since gone viral on social media. The incident happened on October 9 between Royapuram and Washermanpet.


Abilash, from the Madhavaram area, regularly travels to college by train. On this occasion, he was hanging out of the moving train and trying to dodge pillars as the train sped up. Unfortunately, he misjudged the speed and was struck by one of the pillars, causing him to fall from the train.


He was quickly taken to Stanley Government Hospital, where he is receiving treatment for his injuries. Thankfully, his condition is stable, but he remains under medical care.


The Royapuram Police have started an investigation into the incident. Authorities are also warning against such dangerous behavior, reminding the public that riding on the footboard of a train is illegal and extremely risky.
