One time, I was remembering my Mum telling me that she and her childhood friends put pennies on the track to squash them. I'm pretty sure they would have done it in the vicinity of a station with a train slowly trundling past, anyway...

I placed a 2p on the track and stood about 3 metres back, a train came past at about 70mph and as soon as it hit the coin there was a loud bang. After the train passed, I found three copper "stains" on the track and half the coin buckled against a rock. Never again!

I'm fairly sure the driver would have felt the bump from it too!

Fake? Real? Hard to tell. In the U.S. trains are required to slow down at crossings. Still, lethal accidents are common. Some guy just got ran over on Christmas Eve in my community. Walkin' his dog on the tracks, all Christmasy in the mountains. Poof.

From LiveLeak:

The incident in the village Voyskovitsy (Leningrad Region), June 15, 2012 around 7 hours and 15 minutes on the level crossing. Male, 25-30 years, passing on the railway signal set at danger, came under running at high speed freight train and died on the spot. The young man walked into the headphones, it was the cause of the tragedy. (translated by Google)

I think the whole thing is "skipping" its probably a file size thing on the in car camera. If it wasnt for insurance companies offering cheaper insurance for those with on board camera's we wouldn't be seeing such wonderful little clips like these :)

I don't think it's a fake, I was pausing frame by frame as he gets hit and he tries to run out of the way last second before gets plastered to the front of the tain. I think this one is real. Just My opnion.
