Moment a pensioner is hit by a train on a level crossing - VIDEO

This is the incredible moment a pensioner is clipped by a train - and he lives to tell the tale.For reasons known only to him, the 77-year-old decided to walk around the barrier after it lowered on a level crossing in the Czech Republic.Despite the fact that cars have stopped on either side of the level crossing the man is seen scurrying across the tracks.He begins his crossing gingerly enough but speeds up when he sees the train approaching.The front of the train appears to miss him by a hair’s breadth – but a carriage clips his foot and he is seen falling to the ground as his shoe is catapulted across the ground.(metro.co.uk)BakuDaily.Az
