The video sparked a heated debate, with some admiring her fitness, while many others condemned the stunt, citing its dangers. Users criticised the risk involved and questioned the intention behind the act, highlighting the potential consequences of such reckless behavior.

One user wrote, “The girl will die… don’t do this just for views. When you can run normally and properly, is this even necessary? The path you’re on, one day you’ll get stuck — or worse, die.”

Another commented, “Does she even realise one wrong step, and it’s over?”

A third said, “Still thinking, what was the point of running with the train?” A fourth added, “Don’t risk your life for a video.. Life is precious… Run on the field only.”
