We are always excited to share some bizarre news from the world of automobiles and this is a prime example of that.
The video we have shows a Force Traveller literally zip-lining across a river in Nepal. There are weird and perilous activities with automobiles in many parts of the world. On some occasions, people do it for fun or to create viral content for social media. However, in other instances, one is forced to do such stunts out of necessity. This latest instance seems to belong to the latter category where the passenger-mover is suspended in the air to be taken across the river to the other side using a harness. Here are the details.

Force Traveller Across River in Nepal
The post has been shared by chaudhary.sahul on Instagram. It captures a unique situation where a bunch of people are seen tying a Force Traveller full of passengers on a harness that is often used to carry people or luggage across rivers in mountains. We hope that this is a stronger version of that arrangement. Normally, a Traveller weighs over 3,500 kg but with passengers, it could very well weigh over 4,500 kg. To have that much weight suspended on just wires is quite dangerous. Not to mention, the lives of so many people are being risked since the fall below is quite steep.

We can’t comment on whether this is a healthy practice as we don’t know the specifics of this case. It must be understood that the rules for everyday situations in the mountains are quite different compared to the lives in the plains. Hence, there are tons of practices that people have to go through in order to carry on the mundane activities to survive. River-crossing is one such hurdle that needs to be crossed, quite literally every day to get across. If they are doing this for a long time, then it is a necessary evil and nothing out of the ordinary for the locals.

What We Think
We must understand the different needs of various places and people. Mountain roads and traffic conditions are totally different from the other regions. Therefore, unique solutions have to be devised to survive. This is clearly one such case. But we would suggest that people should not blindly imitate what they see on the internet. That is something that we must avoid at all costs because the consequences could be fatal. Stay away from these situations if there is no need.
