Late for Exam, College Boy Paraglides from Panchgani to Exam Centre | Jist

A first year BCom student in Panchgani showed where there's a will, there's a way. Samarth Mahangade was selling juice, at
Harrison's Folly point near Panchgani, when he realised he had to appear for his college examination.

The exam centre was 15 km away at Pasarni Ghat. The traffic was heavy and time was running out. He hit upon the idea of taking a paragliding flight from Harrison's Folly. Paragliding instructor Govind Yewale came to his rescue.

Govind put Samarth on a paraglider and he flew down towards Pasarni Ghat, where he touched down near the examination hall. The video of the incident, which happened on December 15, 2024 has gone viral on social media.
