Re: Fake or Real?
I say fake. If he had shown himself while the train was going over him, that would have made it more believable.

Re: Fake or Real?
Fake because you never heard breathing and you never saw him. Especially when he turned the camera. The only real quality to this is the fact that the camera moved. I was really hoping that something would have hit his camera and broke it.

Re: Fake or Real?
I voted real, until I realized there is no body showing.

Re: Fake or Real?
Fake...I think he was holding the camera as the train was comming...but set the camera down and stepped aside and turned it arround after the train passed! Don't you think if he woulda got hit, the camera would've fell to the ground and prollly not land perfectly straight and then turn around by itself?!

Re: Fake or Real?
Technically I believe it's easily possible since trains sit pretty high. But the fact the train never honked or hit it's brakes tells me the guy wasn't with the camera. I don't know how he turned it around while the train was over head though. Probably a remote controlled tripod.

Re: Fake or Real?
If you've ever looked at a train track you will notice the rails are only a few inches tall above the railroad ties. Underneath today's diesel-electric train engines are the fuel tanks which are nearly level with the top of the rail. If you think a person can lay down and have a train pass over leaving them unscathed, please think again.

Re: Fake or Real?
Not to mencion the vacuum from the train would suck a person into it.

Agreed. If you've ever seen the Myth Busters they did trying to suck people into a speeding train who were standing on the boarding platform, it blew them all over the place instead. Chances are it would blow whatever is on the tracks up and around under the train.

Re: Fake or Real?
Fake. The train would have sounded its horn when he saw someone in the tracks, and the camera was not even shaking enough from all the wind and suctions of the train. And there is no way he could have turned around and he would have to be really small to fit under one.
