‘Real-life BGMI’: Paraglides Over Traffic to Reach Exam Centre on Time in Maharashtra

In a turn of events, Samarth Mahangde, a B.Com student from Maharashtra, paraglided to his exam centre after realizing he was running out of time, avoiding heavy traffic.

In an unexpected turn of events, Samarth Mahangde, a first-year B.Com student from Maharashtra, took to the skies to reach his exam centre on time.

On December 15, Mahangde, who runs a sugarcane juice stall at Harrison Folly Point, was serving juice to tourists when he suddenly realised that he was running out of time to make it to his exam. "I was busy serving customers when I realised I had only a few minutes left before my exam was set to begin," Mahangde recalled.

With heavy traffic on the roads threatening to delay his arrival, Mahangde made a daring decision: he chose to paraglide to the exam centre instead. Harrison Folly, located in the picturesque Pasarni Ghat section, connecting Panchgani and Mahabaleshwar, is known as a popular paragliding hotspot.

Govind Yewale, an adventure sports expert from GP Adventures in Panchgani, quickly stepped in to assist. He arranged the necessary paragliding equipment and ensured Mahangde’s safe flight over the congested roads.

The student glided through the skies, carrying his bag, and made a smooth landing near his college in time for the exam.

Social media users couldn’t stop themselves from praising and commenting on this weird yet amazing fight of the student for his exam, and filled the comments section. 

Users Reaction to the Viral Video

One of the users said, “Everything is zero in front of the Satarkar.” Another user said, “Did you study but.”

A third user commented, “Don't know that it's a college paper means you are not eligible to go to college.” Another commenter added, “Real-life BGMI,” referencing the popular game PUBG Mobile India. 

A few days ago a video went viral in which a girl entered the exam premises by gliding through the closed gates. She went inside the center after crawling under a closed gate to gain entry. The woman ran to the main gate of the exam centre, where there was a gap between the gate and the ground. In the video, she is seen crawling under the closed gate, assisted by a few bystanders.
