Social media captures a uniquely bizarre case of a man who stands on the roof of a Mahindra Thar. What is even more weird is the fact that the SUV is dangling in the air. It has been suspended mid-air using a harness for some reason. Now, there are many people who perform weird activities to boost their social media following. In a bid to get more views, they come up with questionable activities and stunts. This looks like the latest addition to that long list of cringy acts. Let us take a look at the details of this case here.

Man Stands on Roof of Mahindra Thar
This post comes from modified_mahindracar on Instagram. The visuals showcase a mighty perilous stunt. A Thar is suspended in the air using a harness. We are not sure if there is any other purpose of this arrangement. It is entirely possible that he has done this only to create a reel. Short-format content goes viral on the internet these days. Hence, people end up creating such content. The man is seen mildly dancing in front of what looks like a drone. That confirms that he just wants to make content to create Reels for his social media.

What We Think
We would like to highlight just how incredibly stupid this act is. There are chances of a tragedy. We don’t know how high up in the air the man actually is. In any case, he is inviting trouble by performing this stunt needlessly. It is high time we start taking such things seriously. We lose thousands of lives in road accidents each year. Most of these happen due to people failing to comply with traffic regulations. Jeopardizing the safety of yourself or the vehicle is never a good idea to create content. Unfortunately, that is the kind of content which people love. We hope that such videos don’t get enough attention so that people can quit doing these stunts.
