KANNUR: A drunk man's antics on road nearly costed the lives of a couple who were travelling on a motorbike. The shocking incident happened in Kannur where a couple, Babu and wife Sindhu, survived from getting run over by a bus after they fell on the road when a drunkard caused trouble on the road. A video showing the incident has become viral on social networking sites.

The video shows the drunkard dancing on the road near the old bus stand in Payyannur and creating trouble for motorcycle riders and car drivers alike. The accident occurred when the man, who was reprising Micheal Jackson's famous 'moonwalk' steps, forced Babu to move his bike aside in order to avoid hitting him. It can be seen that Babu failed to notice a private bus which was travelling parallel to the bike and thus went on to hit it. Luckily, both Babu and wife narrowly escaped from the bus' back tyre or otherwise, things could have been fatal.

It has been reported that police are investigating the matter and action will be taken against the man. Both Babu and Sindhu are currently undergoing treatment for minor wounds in a nearby hospital.
