BANGKOK: A woman in southern Thailand got away with no serious injuries after her head struck a pole while she was leaning out of a moving train.

In a video circulating on social media, the woman is seen from inside a train carriage, leaning out of an open door. She then moves onto a step outside the train cabin and, holding on to the train’s grab bars, turns around to face the train and leans backwards.
