Earlier in January another video of a man performing dangerous stunts on public roads went viral. In this video, a man was seen standing on a motorcycle while riding on a public road, with a pillion behind him. The video which also went viral on Instagram, showed the man riding a Royal Enfield Bullet with a female pillion who is supposedly his wife behind him. As the video progresses, the man starts standing on the motorcycle while riding. It was noted that both he and his pillion rider were not wearing helmets, putting the lives of both at risk. The video concludes with the man standing fully on the Bullet, while the motorcycle was still in motion and in a fairly high speed.
