Czech Man Inches From Being Killed By Train

submitted by mintbbb

1 decade 1 week ago

A man almost got run over by a train while crossing the railway in the small town of Rájec-Jestřebí, Czech Republic. CCTV footage released by the Czech police shows the 77-year-old hurrying across the tracks, only to be clipped by an oncoming fast train. The man escaped serious injury, but will be receiving a fine for his reckless behavior. The worst thing is that none of the drivers stopped to help him (dailypicks)

YouTube Description:

Straší muž v Rájci Jestřebí nedbal stažených závor a červených světel a přecházel přes koleje. Měl obrovské štěstí. Projíždějící rychlík ho "jen" odhodil.

I used to wonder how cats could somehow think they could cross the street before you hit them while driving. This puts things into perspective.

Without that fro he might have gained a little more speed.

...except for the one that did. Did they not watch their own video before writing the commentary?

Adding video to channels (Eia, Wheels) - requested by ant.

I had three thoughts upon watching this:

Ripped his shoe clean off.

I'd of thunk it to be in Amurica with the way none of the drivers at the scene stopped to help.

After 77 years on the planet, how could he still lack so much in the common sense department. Yeesh.

Everyone who says "Why didn't they stop?" is completely forgetting that they were all probably going through emails or texting at the time. Wouldn't have seen him.
