New Delhi: There have been several reports of persons dying on railway lines as a result of carelessness. If a person becomes stranded on a railway track as a train approaches, they may rush and leap to save themselves or freeze in horror. However, a video clip of a lady calmly conversing on her smartphone moments after a train went over her stunned the internet.
Dipanshu Kabra, an IPS officer, tweeted the video on Twitter on April 12 and it has garnered over 1 lakh views in the last three days.

The video starts with a cargo train crossing a railway station. As soon as the train passes across the camera's field of view, a woman is seen laying on the railroad track, her head wrapped in a dupatta.
After the train departs, the woman stands up and continues a phone call while still sitting on the railway track.
She then walks off the track and inside the station as if nothing unusual had happened. The woman was seen going away and spoke with the man who took the video.
Twitter users were taken aback by the video.
"This is serious! The girl should be located and psychologically counselled," one Twitter user said. "So dangerous," added another.
Earlier, a vigilant RPF policeman saved the life of a passenger who slipped and collapsed while boarding a moving local train at Mumbai's Wadala railway station.
The Central Railway released the video on its official Twitter account, urging passengers not to board or disembark from a moving train.
