With YouTube growing fast, content creators are popping up everywhere. That means competition is fierce, and creators often try wild ideas to stand out. But the stunt pulled by Moroccan YouTuber Tohamy Majid is definitely one you shouldn’t try at home.
The incident happened late May when Tohamy Majid posted a video showing himself setting up chairs right on a train track and chilling there. The crazy part? A train actually came toward the 21-year-old YouTuber and stopped just in time before hitting him. This reckless video quickly blew up across forums and social media.
Just when people thought it ended there, news broke recently that Tohamy Majid was sentenced to 3 years in prison for his actions. Police reports confirmed the train stopping was not staged at all. His survival was purely because the train driver braked just in time.
Given the seriousness, the court handed down a 3-year jail term. On top of that, he must pay a fine equivalent to 1 billion VND to the train company and related parties. After the news spread, many viewers even said the punishment was too light since this kind of video sets a terrible example for young people.
