Plenty of influencers have been criticised for risky shots taken in the name of creating breathtaking Instagram shots.
The latest to be slammed for their dangerous pic is Jean and Camille, travellers from Brussels, who pulled the stunt for their Instagram account Backpackdiariez.
In the picture, the couple was seen smooching while hanging out of a moving train travelling through Sri Lanka.
The famous train had been travelling from Kandy to small-town Ella and features stunning tea country scenery along the way.
So the couple couldnt resist going in for the perfect picture for the Gram and Camille asked her brother to capture the shot.
But many felt that it couldve been life-threating and may encourage copycat acts who may end up getting hurt.
The risk-taking couple doesnt seem too bothered though and has previously been pictured standing atop high planes and buildings.
Just last week a similar picture was taken on the same train by another influencing couple – and they were also criticised for the dangerous move.

In that image, traveller Racquel could be seen hanging completely out of the train while boyfriend Miguel planted a kiss on the forehead.
Both times, some of their hundred thousand strong followers had concerns.
Jean and Camilles post received more than 35,000 likes and more than 1,000 comments.
A caption was shared with the image which read: We couldnt think of a better picture to describe our couple: Blind trust in each other, no matter what, madly in love, living on the edge (sometimes a bit too much), having fun whenever we can, and organised chaos.
Followers werent convinced though. One person wrote: This is how people die, while another wrote: Wouldnt call this adventure, but stupid, risking life for likes on Instagram.
