A student from Maharashtra has taken the internet by storm after a viral video surfaced of him using an unconventional method to ensure he arrived at his examination venue on time. Samarth Mahangade, a resident of Pasarani village in Wai taluka, faced the challenge of reaching his exam center with only 15-20 minutes to spare. Instead of risking delays due to heavy traffic, he opted for a unique alternative—paragliding.
The now-viral video captures Samarth soaring through the sky, equipped with his college bag and full paragliding gear. According to a report by NDTV, he was in Panchgani on the day of his examination running errands when he realised time was running out. Given the heavy congestion on the Wai-Panchgani road, particularly in the Pasarani Ghat area, he sought a quicker solution.
