On his Instagram page, Rahul Gupta has shared several similar clips showing his unusual ways of train travel. This particular viral video has clocked over 19 million views so far on Instagram. In the comments, many people responded with sarcasm. Some joked that he didn't manage to get a seat so he decided to ride on top. Others wondered what would happen when the driver would use the horn - whose sound is usually almost deafening. A few were curious to know if he still paid for a ticket given his unusual 'seat'.
