Watch: Woman Lies Down On Railway Track, Talks On The Phone While Train Passes Over Her
The video, reportedly from Rohtak, Haryana, is a serious example of what one should never do. Messing around railway tracks can lead to serious consequences including death.
Imagine this - you are crossing a railway track and see a train coming your way. What do you do? Run over to the side to get to safety?
Now, that is what a normal person would do. But this woman had a different and extremely moronic idea - instead of getting to the side of the track, she lay down on the tracks while the train passed over her.

However, this woman was totally unfazed by the fact that she could lose her life, and instead, calmly stayed in place on the track while talking on the phone. The bizarre clip was posted on social media with the caption, "Phone par gossip zyada zaroori hai (Gossiping on the phone is more important.")

The video has amassed over 90,000 views on the microblogging website, along with over 3,000 likes.
Twitter users took to the comments section to criticise the woman's actions. While some people said such irresponsible actions cause pain to the family, others said they would feel no empathy for a person who would risk their lives like this.
"Whichever network she is using, they must reward her," joked one user. Another mocked, "Jaan jaye par phone na jaye." "India will never run out of content," commented a third user.
Last year, a woman, also from Haryana, saved herself from getting run over by a train by lying low on the railway track as the locomotive moved slowly over her. The goods train had reportedly halted awaiting a signal when the woman tried to cross over to the other side underneath the train.
She was trapped when the train suddenly began to move. The video showed the woman lying motionless between the tracks as the train passed over her. Onlookers were seen helping the woman stand on her feet after the train left the station.
