Always thought trainspotters were strange but what on earth is this guy doing?

Love the fact that the folk behind him (AND the cameraman) do sod all about it.

Nice.

They were doing something, they were filming him. A superb youtube moment that must be captured on video.

It's what society is like these days. Film the impending doom rather than do anything about it.

Whoosh indeed! Just posted the link in the Lounge (now deleted). I guess there would have been more hits on the web-page if the chap had been obliterated by the train - sad but true!

What program was that from?!!

No idea but, at a guess, would say that it was taken from one of the train-spotting enthusiasts. BBC News covered it this evening on the six o'clock news.
