Selfie obsessed teenager fighting for his dear life after trying to take ultimate picture on top of train


    A teen who climbed on top of a train to take the 'ultimate selfie' is fighting for his life after suffering an electric shock.

    Ganesh Kumkumawati, 16, accidentally touched the overhead wire, sending 250,000 volts surging through his body, as he prepared to take the image on a stationary train in India's Mumbai.It came after a chat with pals over who could take the 'ultimate selfie'.Ganesh was rushed to hospital with 90% burns and is now in intensive care in a critical condition. Traumatised pal Shah Roshan, 17, said: "Ganesh was on top of the train when he touched the wire and collapsed in an explosion of light and smoke.


   "We climbed up to see if he was okay and saw his whole body was black and his clothes were burning there was smoke coming from his skin."It was absolutely horrible." Railway supervisor Bhatti Sharma said: "I had seen the boys taking pictures on the tracks, but when we try to stop such groups from entering the yard, they argue and fight with us instead of going away. Hence, I didn’t pay much attention to them and went into my office."The next I knew was when some children came running towards my office after half an hour or so and informed me that a boy had met with an accident."A hospital spokesman said: "His condition is critical and we are doing our best for him."
