Students in India cross flooded river crawling on top of shaky pipeline

2018-09-25 1

This was the heart-stopping moment two students risked their lives to cross a flooded river in a village in northern India.

A video shows the students crawling on all four limbs on a pipeline, which is hanging over raging waters.

A small slip would mean a definite tragedy though fortunately both the students make it to safety.

The incident occurred at Koti village of Panchkula district in Haryana on September 24.

A video of their plight was shot by a man, who introduces himself as a primary school teacher of the same village.

He urges the viewers to share the video to put pressure on the government to build a bridge across the River Ghaggar, which links the village to the outside world.
