Bangkok, A man who laid on the tracks in front of an oncoming train yesterday lived to tell the tale.
In fact he was completely unhurt despite CCTV appearing to show he must have been cut in two in the apparent suicide attempt.
The drama was caught on two different angles of CCTV at the busy station.
In the first clip the man in a green shirt and jeans emerges from some platform plants to lie down on the track as the train arrives.
People move away in horror not wishing to see what they deem as inevitable.
But in a second clip from another angle the man gets up and runs out of the station. Someone viewing the CCTV can be heard to say in Thai: "That's incredible!"
Medics arrived at the station expecting to find a corpse but they found nothing. But police found the man concerned sitting by the road nearby.
He is 23 year old. He was largely incoherent and unable to say what had happened.
Locals told police that he had been wandering about the area for the last 2 or three days and had tried to harm himself before. He was rambling that he had no work and was stressed out.
Police took him to nearby Hospital where he was found to have just a slight cut on his leg and no internal injuries.
Doctors assessed that he was suffering from depression.
he could have either gotten out of the way really quick or there is some sort of guard that pushes shit like that out of the way... Im guessing the latter?
