Men Lift Scooter on Shoulders to Escape Heavy Gurugram Traffic, Video Goes Viral

What do you do when stuck in a never-ending traffic jam? For two men in Gurugram, the answer was simple carry their scooter on their shoulders and keep moving! A video of the unusual scene has gone viral, leaving social media both amused and impressed.

The clip shows the duo carefully balancing the scooter as they wade through a sea of halted cars and bikes. An X user who posted the video quipped, “In Gurgaon, a man carried his scooter on his shoulder to avoid traffic.”

Social Media’s Take

Naturally, the reactions poured in fast. One called them "The New Bahubali in town," while another dubbed the scene "Deadlift final boss." Some, with a dash of sarcasm, wished for more strength for car owners, while others joked that office-goers might soon have to do the same.

The Bigger Picture

Behind the viral humor lies a harsh reality. Heavy rainfall recently turned Delhi-NCR roads, especially in Gurugram, into a nightmare. Commuters were trapped for six to eight hours, with endless queues of cars stretching across highways.

Stories from the Gridlock

Many frustrated residents took to social media, sharing experiences of the chaos. One woman revealed that her driver dropped her in the middle of the road fearing his car might stall. Yet, amid the gloom, one post stood out a woman praising her Rapido driver who didn’t give up and ensured she reached home safely.

The viral 'scooter lift' may have made people laugh, but it also highlights just how desperate and inventive commuters in NCR are becoming in the face of worsening traffic woes.
