Children's playful and curious nature often leads to accidents, and sometimes a single mistake can have life-threatening consequences. A similar incident recently occurred in Maharashtra's Virar East area. A  viral video has surfaced on social media showing a young boy who falls onto a live electric transformer while trying to pick mangoes from a tree. According to reports, the boy slipped and landed on the transformer.

Fortunately, a few auto-rickshaw drivers came to his rescue and managed to save him. The exact location of the incident, however, remains unclear. The video, shared from the Instagram account @virarmerijaan with the caption "Child falls on a live electric transformer," has garnered over a million views. It has sparked mixed reactions from viewers. One user commented, "I hope he's safe," while another criticized, "Instead of saving him, they are filming the video." A third user questioned, "How did he even end up there?"
