A striking video from Delhi has taken social media by storm, featuring an ex-army veteran who leaps into action to help a woman desperate to catch her train. Faced with heavy traffic that threatened her journey, he skillfully navigated his bike through the chaos, ensuring she reached her platform with precious minutes left.
We’re always told that small acts of kindness can change someone’s entire day. This viral video from Delhi proves exactly that. One thoughtful move by an ex-army man turned a stressful moment into a story of relief for a woman who was moments away from missing her train because of the never-ending traffic.
The clip, shared by the Instagram page Helping Soldier, shows a stranger coming to the rescue when it mattered the most.
The video begins with a man riding his bike through jam-packed Delhi roads when a woman suddenly stops him from an autorickshaw. She looks clearly anxious and explains that her train is about to leave. Stuck in traffic, she knows she won’t make it on time and asks if he can help her reach the station. The man hesitates for a second, then simply asks her to hop on.
What follows is a tense but hopeful ride through the traffic. The biker weaves his way through the chaos and manages to get her to the station just in time. With barely five minutes left to spare, the woman thanks him repeatedly, clearly relieved. Before leaving, the man asks if he can post the video online, and she agrees. That’s when she notices the army sticker on his bike and realises her helper is an army veteran.
As the video made its way online, people were quick to praise his gesture. One comment summed up the mood perfectly:
“A soldier is never off duty.”
And honestly, moments like these remind us that sometimes, heroes show up on two wheels, in the middle of traffic, when you least expect them.
