VIDEO: Man Escapes Sure Death By Train Onset

The Network Rail surveillance camera footage was published as part of the promotional project which aims to warn citizens of the dangers if they do not honour traffic signals on railway crossings.

This VIDEO CLIP shows a crazy attempt of a Briton to run across the railways before the speeding train comes. The Briton was just seconds away from sure death. The train stormed past the man so close, that it removed his tennis shoe.

The campaign was initiated because of defeating figures from 2008, when 15 persons died in train onsets, while over 3,400 offences were recorded.
