Woman falls from train while making selfie video

A Chinese tourist narrowly avoided serious injury after falling from a moving train in Sri Lanka while attempting to film a selfie video.

The incident occurred on the coastal railway line, where the tourist was leaning out of the train’s door and holding onto the railings when a tree branch struck her, causing her to lose balance and fall.

The alarming moment was captured on video, showing the tourist flailing her arms in panic as she fell.

Fortunately, she landed on a bush, which helped break her fall and prevent any major injuries.

Once the train stopped at the next station, fellow passengers rushed to assist her. Local authorities later confirmed that the woman did not sustain any injuries.

The video of the incident has gained significant attention online, sparking a mix of reactions.

Many social media users expressed concern over the dangerous behavior, with one comment reading, “Ignorance above all else.” Others pointed out the woman’s luck in landing on a bush, with one user remarking, “She is fortunate that it is merely a bush.”
