Darbhanga: A youth who was trying to film Tik Tok videos in a flood stream died as the currents washed him away in Bihar’s Darbhanga.  Afzal and his two friends decided to make TikTok videos in the flood-stricken area. 

It took NDRF divers three days to find his body at that same location where he was performing the stunts.

This is not the first time that people have lost lives while making content for Tik Tok videos.

In April 2019, 19-year-old boy Salman Zakir fron New Delhi was accidentally shot by his friend Sohail in the cheek while trying to make a TikTok video.

In February 2019, a college student from Tamil Nadu died as his scooter rammed into a bus as they were trying to shoot a video to upload on TikTok.
