Do u know it is comman in India even in big cities

The fact that his friends and others have the nerve to blame Network Rail because they didn't know about the risks involved, I honestly just find staggering... It's quite worrying when you hear something like that said - some people are beyond clueless.

I imagine that they are acting dumb on the advice of ambulance chasing lawyers - no-win no fee - so no risk to the grieving parents. If they live close enough to an electrified railway for their kid to have been behaving brainlessly on it, then its pretty unlikely to succeed. To agree to try for some compensation money on the back of such an incident smells rancid anyway - though of course we don't know all the facts. Could be the kid was visiting from an area where there are no electrified lines.

@@alanmusicman3385 no, the teenagers involved were all local. No doubt they had been on the tracks plenty of times before. When I saw teenagers doing this at my local station they laughed at me when I tried to warn them how stupid it was. I couldn't stand back and not tell them, but it makes you think, has anybody actually ever told them the track is electrified? There was a 16 year old girl who crossed the tracks at a large station just down the line from me "because it was quicker" than using either the footbridge or underpass. She was electrocuted in front of her friends, lots of waiting passengers and several members of railway staff. Her heart stopped numerous times at the scene and on the way to hospital. She was disfigured and disabled by the incident.... She now campaigns for education about electrified tracks because she too, "didn't know" crossing the tracks could kill her. Despite the signs in every station warning of electrocution, passing trains and that trespassers will be fined £2,000. At least she is doing something good with her time now, trying to educate. Sadly, the incident traumatised staff who went to the aid of a girl they thought was most likely dead and realised she wasn't.

@@underwaterdick Awful for everyone involved. You can only assume that there are people who think that the rails are only live when there is a train visible?

I worked at CLJ as an RO2 I’m with you on this ,makes my blood boil we had one women who’s husband got struck by a Gat Ex why was the train going fast and why it didn’t stop in time or swerve for goodness sake

@@marksinthehouse1968 It is unfortunate it happened but Gatwick Express is the fastest train on that line, it only stops at three stations Victoria, Gatwick and Brighton.

@@marksinthehouse1968 This has to be a troll comment. Swerve?

@@carlisroy6666 I think he meant that the woman whose husband was struck said that

I did 20 years on the railway starting on the Eastern region , it affects the driver , his family , his misses , his kids , . Then there are staff who have to pick up the bits . The persons family . It goes on and on .

*they didn’t deserve the middle finger you mean

@@seemorebeer2848 i think they mean the guy on the tracks deserves it. In an ideal world the driver deserves therapy and chocolate cake

@@seemorebeer2848 and what exactly is wrong with saying he/she? that's completely correct.

@@MichaelWatson21600 there’s more pronouns then just “he” and “she” so they used “they/them” as it’s neutral.

@@prodofine373 I mean in my views I disagree, scientifically there are only two but of course everyone is entitled to their own opinions and I completely respect yours 100%

It's a train station. The train is supposed to stop there.

@@gert-janvanderlee5307 It's an Express it won't stop here.

@@Grumpycat1611 I doubt that. Express trains here would go much faster and wouldn't have been able to stop there.

@@gert-janvanderlee5307 It's the UK. Expect everything to be slow.

@@gert-janvanderlee5307 You can see at 0:26 that the nameboard says 'Layton'. Layton is a suburban stop in Blackpool which would not be served by the Blackpool North - London Euston express, which this train is. However, it is only about a mile or 2 from BPN so trains are not up to full speed at that point.

Bro stop complaining u making it seem like he did it as the train was close to him the train was so far that he fully crossed the platform before the train even reached the platform

@@urbexfloxks1641 ...are you seriously trying to justify this situation? 🤨 You clearly have no idea how rails and electricity work.

@@dez3540 are u fucking dumb he can't get electrocuted

@@urbexfloxks1641 HAHAHAHAHAHA, oh I so wish you knew how much of a dumbass you sound like right now 🤣

@@urbexfloxks1641 are you fucking serious? Where the fuck have you been living? Neptune?

Nah “YOOOOUUUUUUU TWWWW@@@@@@@@“

thats sad i feel sorry for the driver

trespassing is illegal so that should teach him a lesson in the first place i could see a 8 year old child behaving better than this brain damaged mistake

I'm pretty sure he was flipping off the woman who called out to him, not the driver.

@@djunior874 To me it looked like he was pointing the finger in the direction of the Pendolino and not the woman that called him out.

@@icecoldassassin8531 oh yeah now that I rewatched it I think you're right! What a douche

​@@djunior874Either way it wasn't deserved.

lmao that police chase was funny

it was a range rover or something

if that pendolino was at 125 mph he wouldve been vaporized before he could say cunt. some people are just so ignorant they take risks that are un necessary and could cause their death. people dont think about the passengers on the platform or the train drivers when they do stuff like this, imagine how the train driver or the people on the platform would've had to deal with if they saw him get hit.

@@amazing_avocadoo7881 your saying it like he should care, its a fucking police chase bro😂😂😂

If it was a pendolino at 125 mph he probably would've run and made it. If it was a Eurostar at 185 mph he probably would've experienced trauma, if it was an ICE 3 at 205 mph then there's a small chance he would've been done for since ICE 3s are pretty quiet aswell.

show off

Lucky the line is only about 70, otherwise he would of been toast, Possibly going 50 as thats coming out of Blackpool

@@FMGfootballmadgamer nah mate that particular stretch is 115mph I believe train was approaching at a slow speed probably due to signals

@@Lowse1345 Wow, is it? When did they introduce that, I've never been on a train which goes over 75mph from Blackpool to Preston. Think you need to research the line more.

Trespassing fine on the railway in the UK is £1000 minimum

It was an emergency stop 🤦

@@North_Wales_Trains fr?????????

@@North_Wales_Trains r/wooooooosh

r/dumb

Eesh what an idiot that person was

What? Did he refuse to leave the tracks or what?

As it’s an unscheduled stop he would have to report it I suppose, perhaps a driver can tell us

He’d report it to the signaller first (I am one) and then his control if he felt it necessary (he can inform his control at destination or relieving point if the issue wasn’t severe, to minimise delay). My next role is to stop any other train in the area to then enable a caution of those trains; unless it is proven the trespasser has clearly and fully left the railway. I also attend to the driver ensuring they are okay and able to continue forward or possibly not. I would then speak to my Ops controller informing him of the incident and the actions taken. Said controller may despatch a MOM (Mobile Operations Manager) and/or the BTP and they would speak to the relevant TOCs control. This happens regularly I’m afraid, even more so with young kids these days, I’ve dealt with some fatalities and very near misses in the past. Always a trying, upsetting and anxious time.

Simonise41 thank you for you reply it’s good to know for us non railway people thank you

@@Simonize41 Thanks very much for such a detailed response.

@@Wakajce Jeez 😬

*brakes

@@pingpongpung whatever my point is clear.

Yeah it doesn't justify it, it's just an excuse for bad practices. People shouldn't every do this unless...idk their child decides to jump on a track But doing absolutely risky stuff like this is so dumb. It dosent just endanger the person, but possibly others who may try to jump in after you as a reaction. Delays accords the network as the driver needs to probably assess the situation, and also because they probably use an emergency break depending on the distance of the train Its silly

@@bb-3653 I agree and it takes over a mile for an Electric High Speed Train to come to an Emergency stop.

@@turnipgaming9747 yep, if its going over 100mph , and it weight a shit ton, then yeah it will do. High speed trains tend to be relatively heavy .

@@bb-3653 High Speed trains Weigh over 460 tonnes depending how many Coaches there are, some 16 car High speed trains weigh around 867 tonnes.

The fact is, the train stopped. once the emergency brake is applied it has to come to a full stop and wait two minutes to release the brake and then accelerate back to its previous speed over the next few miles. he just made this train, and every train behind it at least five minutes late, because he didn't fancy using the footbridge.

So they died?

I can't believe anyone would be that stupid?

TaksimRde are but people are that stupid

Ikr people are freaking out over nothing. People here cross like this all the time and its pretty chill

@@bukamamusic Lmao so true

@@bukamamusic whattttttt??? U high or something?

He had enough time, I'm not saying she should've but like I said he had enough time and maybe he was in a rush...

@@charliefoxmusic8744 No excuse.

@@Wirralspotter can u read? I said: I'm NOT saying they should've done it...

@@charliefoxmusic8744 I know, but you then said “he had enough time and maybe he was in a rush” which isn’t an excuse

@@Wirralspotter Which I was correct in saying so, I'm saying that his life wasn't at risk... I'm not saying it's an excuse.

Especially when impressionable kids can watch this and think it's safe to play chicken with a high speed train.

i think that was to tell the guy to move lol

@@IseyWasTaken yeah is was, but still a sick one tho.

*can can begins playing as train travels 135mph into idiot*

In a nice way, especially in this situation, it isn’t the person crossing the line I’d be worried about; it’s the poor driver who will have had to take very fast, decisive action to safely stop that large, heavy, fast and dangerous piece of kit out of course.

@@alexwood295 Yeah that too

Yes that is true but it could lead to many people around like the driver maybe experiencing trauma and bad mental health conditions like maybe PTSD maybe? It could have lead to repercussions giro the people at the station

@@anastasio_giorghio “hE DiDnT LoOk sUiCiDaL”seriously mate you have no idea, you’re the kind of person that causes suicides

You say that "The safety of anyone trespassing on the tracks is not the driver's problem and they should not feel any guilt for hitting anyone" but I don't think you completely understand, something like that would completely change your life if you were the driver, you cant do anything but sit there and watch it happen. I don't think the driver would even have time to think of the passengers when they are in control of a train which they know cant stop in time. Its not like its something you can prepare for in any way, it just happens and before you know its already too late.

I doubt he would have cared

I don't think hitting a person is going to be heavy enough to derail a train. Even something like a car would be enough to derail a 125mph train, for example the 2004 Ufton Nervet rail crash.

@@kyleJohn1997 Exactly - sad, isn't it?
