Remember The Train Selfie Video That Shocked Everyone? Turns Out It Was A Prank!

The youth was never hit by the train and the entire video was staged!

Hyderabad: A few days ago, a video of a guy at the MMTS station taking a selfie with a running train had shocked the nation. Multiple news websites, including us reported that the man was hit by the train after which he suffered grave injuries to his brain. But now there is a new twist in the tale which will make you even more angry! Apparently, the video was a prank and was entirely staged. According to ABN Telugu, a regional news channel, the video was faked by Shiva and his friends.
