A video of a dangerous bike stunt performed on the streets of Mumbai prompted action by the city police after the clip went viral on social media.
In the video, a man is seen performing a wheele with one girl sitting in front of him and another sitting pillion. The man is seen lifting the front wheels off the road and riding on for several meters.
While the video could be absolutely scary for someone watching it, those on the bike seem thrilled by the stunt they were part of. The women, specifically the one sitting in front of the rider facing the back, appeared to be waving, smiling and even showing off gang signs mid-stunt. Neither of the three passengers had helmets on.
