:looroll: Unlucky pants; you know he messed in his.
There wouldn't have been anything left if that train had whacked him; he would have been vaporized:D:p
I'd love to see what kind of look the conductor had on his face right before the guy jumped out of the way? I bet he wanted to hit him.
They're like that here too... The Acela I ride on alot tops 150mph

A few years ago I read a story about a new type of train they're testing out in Germany. The tracks are changed; it's some kind of supermagnetic track and the thing is supposed to top out at over 200 mph.

I think they're capable of like 300mph
I've read somewhere that this was inspired by a science project of a student.:cool:Quote:
