Right? I've always wondered how it is that people are still getting hit and killed by trains in 2012. I've never been near train tracks and not been aware when a train is coming. Now I know, I guess.

Time mark 0:58 doesn't seem physically possible. Had to watch frame by frame.

That motorcycle racing crash was pretty much the way that we lost a local rising star, at the track but substitute steel guardrail for the airbags, and the bike didn't miss his head.
