WARNING: If you're a selfie taking douche-bag and are thinking about shooting your next photo or video next to a moving train, you might want to rethink that! This kid found out the hard way as he positioned himself close to the tracks, too close to the tracks, in an attempt to take an action packed daredevil selfie.
A Hudson Line Metro North train that departed from Poughkeepsie, NY derailed in the Bronx at about 7:30 this morning before reaching its destination at Grand Central Terminal in Manhattan. Multiple media sources report that 4 people have died and 63 others suffered injuries. NY Governor Andrew Cuomo addressed the press this morning and confirmed the deaths.
Filmed in Mawson Lakes, South Australia on CCTV, this harrowing footage shows a teenage boy brazenly crossing a track in front of an oncoming train and avoiding death by the narrowest of margins.
After a train killed his friend, Mark Anthony Bruce decided the best way to seek revenge was, well, to try to kill a train himself.
To accomplish this ill-conceived vengeance, the 47-year old Tennessee man allegedly approached a train that was stopped on the railroad tracks near where his friend, a deaf mute, had been struck and killed last month.
