Spiderman and Spiderwoman Arrested for Performing Bike Stunts
Delhi influencer couple arrested for performing motorbike stunts violating traffic rules, caught after viral video flagged by Delhi Traffic Police.
A Delhi influencer couple, Aditya (20) and Anjali (19), found themselves in trouble with the law after their Instagram reel, featuring them dressed as superheroes and performing stunts on a motorbike, went viral.
The reel, titled "Spiderman Najafgarh Part 5," showcased Anjali as "Spider-Woman" meeting Aditya, dressed as "Spiderman," at a metro station. The duo then embarked on a joyride through the streets of Dwarka, Delhi, performing stunts and dance moves, including the famous Titanic pose.
However, their attempt to gain online fame backfired when the Delhi Traffic Police took notice of the reckless stunts depicted in the video. Aditya and Anjali were swiftly located and arrested, with multiple traffic rule violations under the Motor Vehicle Act, 1988, being levied against them. These violations included riding a bike without a number plate, mirrors, license, helmets, and engaging in dangerous driving practices.
Aditya, also known as the "Najafgarh Spiderman," is no stranger to uploading videos of his stunts while donning a Spiderman costume. While he typically shares such content on his Instagram account "Indian Spidey Official," the viral reel was uploaded from his alternate account, "Your Friendly Neighbourhood Indian Spidey," boasting over 9,800 followers.
Apart from stunts, Aditya's Instagram feed features a variety of content, including playing badminton, riding a tractor, and dancing to trending songs. His popularity extends beyond social media, with appearances at college fests, cosplay events, and gatherings of anime enthusiasts. Notably, he even visited a Delhi school and attended the National Film Awards, albeit without his Spiderman attire.
The incident serves as a cautionary tale about the dangers of prioritizing online fame over safety and adherence to traffic regulations. As influencers continue to seek attention through daring feats, authorities remain vigilant in enforcing laws to ensure public safety on the roads.
