Foreigner stunned after seeing 6 people on a single motorcycle in India [Video]

6 people riding single motorcycle india

As we have said so many times before, India is not for beginners. This particular statement gets proven each and every day of the week. Recently, a video has been shared on which six people were seen riding on a motorcycle. Yes! You heard it right, six people on one bike. This spectacle even shocked a foreigner who was heard laughing at this unique scenario.

Six Men on Motorcycle Shock Foreigner

This video of the six people riding on a motorcycle has been shared on YouTube by NickKTravel on their channel. In this very short clip, the foreign traveler recorded a very unique scene. He spotted five people riding on a Hero Passion motorcycle. Now, the shocking part for the foreigner was that there was a sixth man standing.

He quickly realizes that he was also there to board the already full motorcycle. In the video clip, an elderly man was also seen coming from behind. After this man, the foreigner thought that he might suggest to them not to do such a risky task of carrying six people on the bike.

However, to the foreigner’s surprise, this elderly man helped the five men sitting on the bike. He helped the sixth man in getting on the side of these five men. As can be seen in the video, these five men were seen holding the sixth man. After a while, he was held by four men behind the rider as the rider had both his hands on the handlebar.

Is it Safe?

The answer to this question is pretty straightforward and that is No. This type of riding is absolutely unsafe. There are so many things that are wrong in this video. First, there should not be more than two people on any two-wheeler.

Any two-wheeler has a maximum loading capacity. And if this load capacity is exceeded, it can cause unnecessary wear on the mechanics of the vehicle. Additionally, not a single person in this video was wearing a helmet. This is another huge safety issue, and all six of these men were violating this traffic rule.

Coming to the method by which the sixth man was riding on this bike. As can be clearly seen in the video, he was hanging on the side of the bike with four pillions holding him. Now, although he does not get hurt in the video, most likely they could not have gone very far without dropping him.

If the man got dropped in a road with heavy traffic, most likely he would cause a huge accident. He could easily sustain heavy injuries and also cause harm to other riders and drivers on the road. Unfortunately, people like these are very common in India, and they regularly post videos of them doing stupid stunts like this.

ASC Tornadoes Stunts

Now, although we have mentioned that there should not be more than two people on a two-wheeler, there is a group in India which is known for carrying a lot more than six people on their Royal Enfield motorcycles. We are talking about the famous Indian Army Service Corps (ASC) Tornadoes.

On every Republic and Independence day of India, we see these army officials performing some of the craziest stunts. These officers use the Royal Enfield Bullet motorcycles and train each and every day to perfect the art of stunting. These men are seen forming human pyramids and driving through fire along with many other elaborate stunts.
