Re: Cut in Half by Train and Still Alive!
Just seems like alot of work for no fame or money out of it, the ground by the track is packed down so tight with the trains going over it that it would take alot of work just to dig the hole and dont forget you can fit under a train without it hitting you like these people who lay between the tracks as a train is coming and it goes right over them.

Re: Cut in Half by Train and Still Alive!
I'm a professional railroad locomotive engineer in the US (or a "driver" in the UK), and I've seen my share of these incidents. My first take on the video was... 100% REAL! My second and 3rd take, still think it's real. It would be nearly impossible to dig out a hole sufficient to completely hide the man's lower half, plus, the distance between tie (sleeper) centers is insufficient to fit an adult man's hips. The track in question appears to be 'broad-gauge', most likely the Indian gauge of 5'6" between the rails leaving approximately 18" between tie centers; not enough room to hide a person's lower extremities. PLUS, digging along the track would be very difficult.... PLUS PLUS, I've seen stranger things than a man survive a total bisection, PLUS PLUS PLUS, I've seen a hot steel wheel (actually the brake rotors) in effect cauterize an amputation. My take... 100% real. 100% odd, but still, 100% real. J1 Reduction Pissneck |
