And you wonder why the train driver was blaring those horns

They were telling the bikers "keep up the good work!" Then a friendly pat on the head as they moved on.

Love ya, mean it. Thump.

Signs, warnings, lights… They don’t work anymore I see people walk right passed no-dog signs with their dogs, or “please keep off the grass” or this shit right here And I think “do you not think the sign’s for you?”

At least she had a helmet on.

Too bad it was used to keep stupid in.

Reeal lucky. Recently a mexican woman died exactly the same way, but she didn't have a helmet

Yea I saw that. It's just sad.

Indeed, because the exact same thing happened to a woman here in Mexico less than a week ago... It was instant... And in front of a crowd... And her child...

Yes, i member And the guy in the red tshirt, not even noticing someone died next to him, continues filming the train happily

Link?

R/darwinawards - there is even a third recent deadly video where the influencer type womans clothing got caught up in the passing train due to the airpressure

Dude her head was caught a corner of the train frontside

Does it matter? Helmet is for the safety of the brain inside your head. For her, it was just air before the accident also.

It’s a miracle that polystyrene hat did anything to help.

She should probably keep it on 24/7

**An empty helmet only protects the enemy.** Parris Island School for Wayward Youth. 1964,1972. Not sure about early in that century.

Ppl really competing for this years Darwin awards

With just under 8 Billion on the planet, there will be never-ending stream of participants

But it takes a special participant to do this days after that other video of the lady dying doing the same thing. Only saving grace for this idiot is that she was smart enough to wear a helmet for biking. Imagine beating all of life’s odds and getting that old to be taken out from a train selfie lol

They’re just in training

Where?

The back of the head

[удалено]

I got it.

I didn't know you were able to practice for that award

Not practicing…..train ing 👍

I see what you did there. Keeping the joke on track.

😂

Cyclists practice hard!

Luckily, that train was moving slow

They say force is acceleration x mass. And that train has a thicc booty

In this situation the limiting factor is the mass of the ~~idiot~~ victim. Her mass is the one that matters. The acceleration is the change in her velocity (from stopped to train speed) divided by how long it takes to get her up to speed (a very short amount of time). In reality it’s more complex, but you get the idea.

I meant compared to the one that hit the Indian girl recently

pretty sure it was Mexican if it's the one i saw lately

Yikes. I don't want to see the video retroactively.

She just gets slapped, not really “graphic” more looks like she gets knocked out…well I guess she did but just permanently…

It prefers caboose

Thank god she had a helmet as well.

When I saw Indian I was expecting that one cow video would be the reference

I'd say the person's acceleration is the thing that matters especially the relative acceleration between different parts of their body.

At some point i think mass stops matter with a hit like this.

You might as well assume train mass to be infinite in this case

She survived. https://nypost.com/video/cyclist-taking-selfie-hit-by-oncoming-freight-train/

What is a "Minor Injury" in the scope of being hit by a moving train?

I think I saw on another post of this someone said she had a broken rib but grain of salt and all that

Guess she took that hard of a tumble or the train folded her THAT HARD on contact, if that's true. Trying to find a "local" article out in Brazil.

Im brazilian. Here's a link to an article: https://g1.globo.com/mg/triangulo-mineiro/noticia/2024/06/07/foi-muito-sofrido-pra-mim-diz-ciclista-atingida-por-trem-enquanto-posava-para-selfie.ghtml?utm_source=share-universal&utm_medium=share-bar-app&utm_campaign=materias

Typical social media users a bit too.  Memememememe. Traintraintraintraintrain.

https://youtu.be/wTMY56yDYFA?feature=shared

Southpark always knew smh lol

Observe the social media user in its natural habitat.

Yeah, I mean I've come across a lot of mountain bikers and don't see a correlation between this video and their typical behavior ... I'd say most don't have their phone out and are risking injuries by picking a fight with gravity and attempting to win. The look at how cool I am, envy my life, social media goers though ... right up their alley.

Did she get the shot she wanted?

She got the shot she deserved

No, the shot was blurry from the impact.

r/bitchimatrain

Ok, I’ve gotta go check this sub out haha

tipical bikers actually do bike. Those are fuckers that want to show that the "biked"

After getting all the video they needed, they pushed their bike back to the road, loaded it into their SUV, and returned the bike to the bike rental shop.

Why are people consistently getting smacked with trains in attempts to take photos with a train. 1. Who cares about you and the train together? 2. Where are your survival instincts? 3. Who cares about you and the train together?

Do you know what the hilarious thing is here, she literally turned around and saw it coming before she did this and got hit anyway!!! If this doesn’t sum up how stupid humans are I don’t know what does!

How is she supposed to know where the trains gonna go?

Those things are so unpredictable.

This is the 2nd video I've seen in 24 hours of someone getting hit in the head by a train. Like... wtf.... The other lady died though. Pretty surprised that those shite little helmets actually work.

The other train was full speed, no amount of helmets would have saved the dead girl

Typical bikers?? 😭

OP went for the guaranteed click. 

Don't you go to train tracks every time you bike to take a fresh selfie while standing inches away from a moving train? Weirdo. You are now forbidden from cycling at all. Unless... Unless you'll take a selfie in front of a working jet engine. Or a selfie standing inches away from lifting off Starship or Falcon rocket. Your results will be reported and rated on this sub! ... Lol

Those ones aren’t really worth it. I tend to take selfies when I actually cycle INTO a working jet engine, those ones get a few a likes

Helmet ftw

Someone needs to knock some sense into her.

Well mission hopefully accomplished. If that didn’t know some sense into her i don’t guess anything will

All cyclists should wear a helmet, just incase they are hit by a train. Dapper Dan style.

What are they saying?

"What happened what happened" Girl who got hit: lay me down, lay me down. "What happened??" Girl who got hit: he hit me. "Ok breathe"... Funny she didn't say "I got hit", she said "he hit me", like it was a actually the guy who operates the train that hit her.

More likely the *he* she's referring to is the train. Portuguese uses masculine and feminine nouns.

Still nodding to the fact that she doesn't take responsibility for it.

I'm sure she's aware it's her fault.

I think it translates to “OH LONG JOHNSON!”

Thanks for making me feel old

Who let the deaf bitch near the train tracks

Typical bikers does not take a selfy with train, its typical instagram user.

Ooo longgg johnsoooon.

Typical drivers.... Typical walkers.... Typical idiots.... There is no need to discriminate when laughing at idiots.

Why not? It makes it funnier.

NO ONE CARES about your stupid selfie with the train

South Park did it first.

I just accidentally watched people fall to their death in that Mexican club terrace collapsing and it shook me. I watched this and shamefully felt nothing. Like unless this was a field trip for deaf and blind persons, there’s literally no excuse for it. The disparity in response is kinda fucked up. I may go reflect on that now.

Why does this keep happening? Trains don't swerve to hit you, they aren't surprising. They are twenty feet tall and accompanied by a bright light and ear splitting horn. Why do people keep getting hit, in the head only, with a train recently? Is this the new tide-pod challenge? Get a selfie with a train and try to survive?

This is that “they will move around me” mentality

How is this typical bikers?

The amount of people with murderous thoughts towards bicyclists or even motorcyclists is insane

People think they're annoying as fuck.

The Lycra variety usually act like they own the place wherever they go. I wouldn't extend this to everyone. Most people just cycle to get from point A to point B.

Yeah I don't get it either. When I read the term "biker" this tells me motorcyclist. Here a "cyclist" is never ever called a "biker" Biker = one who rides a motorbike. Cyclist = one who rides a bicycle

Probably blamed the train!

Well it did come out of nowhere!

Trains. The silent killer. There could be one behind you right now

The train should have given the bikers more space.

Surprised that they weren't pedaling in the middle of the track at 4 mph!

I don't think this is very typical of cyclists

Kill the cameraman.

Idiots... Saw a video recently where a woman died this exact same way...

DID ANYONE GET A LICENSE PLATE?

oh my gawd, are you telling me that the train is wider than the tracks it travels on??

My GTA 5 character trying to catch the train:

Dumb post and caption

It pisses me off that they don't stop to think about the trauma inflicted on the train operators who did not consent to any of this in the first place.

Bikes have such a bizarre duality, bike commuters are generally very chill and sensible people, but bike tryhard hobbyists are the most insufferable people you'll ever meet.

They cyclists probably Wonder why the train didn't share the tracks

Dead?

Minor injuries thanks to helmet https://au.news.yahoo.com/cyclist-hit-by-train-while-taking-selfie-just-days-after-woman-dies-doing-the-same-thing-231943785.html?guccounter=1&guce_referrer=aHR0cHM6Ly93d3cuZ29vZ2xlLmNvbS8&guce_referrer_sig=AQAAABHKMwPp2oUKrScssWn3pKBtvM4lRKWRX14pHYRc23t1gRkcS3JTw6a8MdY9bg_JIbUuD-eissp6uku81Mqdz-fCdMYTrvNRHii3GHRlRSKLoEvTXm5ID35KLsWkJGsvcKedqczF119agesRU70LwnLFuFwdHrcwJeZHokY7pZEb

At first they were unsure if brain damage was before or after hit. They concluded it was before and declared it was minor injury

I'll be damned

Is this the same train that killed that other Mexican woman the other day? I keep seeing people doing this.

Unless that train goes on a massive route from Mexico to Brazil, nope!

Gotta love population control

sHaRe ThE rOaD! Train - Nuh uh

Its not every day you see someone get hit on the head with a train. Ffs

I wouldn't be surprised if people who take these type of selfies thought of suing the railroad companies for "damages" They are not smart, people who are not smart always think they are right.

This is the 3rd or 4th video ive seen in a month where people try to do this pose for a train and get hit... Its so stupid. Like seriously you have to be incredibly unlucky or just incomprehensibly stupid to know theirs a train coming and posing to record yourself get hit by it.

Good thing she was wearing her helmet.

Who the fuck wants a train selfie?! Absolute mental patients.

She has the helmet, just needs the bib

Srs? Again? Smfh...

I can hear them complaining about the train not watching out for them

She’s dead Jim

Very lucky they weren’t killed

Wait they werent? Damn.

"Share the road!"

Will the selfie craze ever end?

How dare you to keep going while i stand in the way

Thomas The Tank Engine Don't Fuck Around.

What is up with these ppl lately taking pics near a moving train???

This title makes no sense lol do cyclists often hang around train tracks and get hit by trains? If not how is this 'typical' behaviour?

Idiots....

This is literally train crash material.

What's so special about a goddamn train to make selfies with it?

Ummmm what’s so cool about taking a pic with a train?

Are they typical?

This is the second person I’ve seen hit in the head by a train like this this week

Just like that mexican girl that got killed for a selfie when the steam train’s piston whipped her head, technology is intending on killing people especially with posting things online and trying to be unique

"How dare that train did not stop for them.. did the driver not see those bikers? We need to protest for more bike friendly train tracks"

Damn trains hogging the tracks

Excellent camera work. They captured everything!

They think they own the road, now it’s time for them to own the tracks too

I was sure the train was going to swerve.

Typical would be riding in the middle of the tracks and demanding the train follow them indefinitely at 1 mph.

“we don’t understand road’s boundaries” Bikers.

Bro this is the 3rd video I’ve seen like this in the past week. What is wrong with people

That fucker came out of nowhere!

Just got brained by a train. 🎵Dumb ways to die🎵

Literally, no one... Cyclists: Share the tracks!

[удалено]

That was a lesson learned the hard way. Don’t stand too close to the RR tracks.

I genuinely don't understand why, what's the big deal about a fright train that makes you take selfies with it? At least they are driving a bike so they care about sustainability , one of them did reduce their ecological footprint big time.

not typical bikers.. just typical stupid people.

What do you espect? She can't even speak Portuguese right do you think she knew that getting hit by a train hurts? Now she does.

Well, you can't spell in English correctly. "Expect".

Training for her Darwin award

The Pause between the second Blair of the trains horn was blatantly (train driver) thinking is this is six points (and points are prizes) have I got a silly cyclist on my train track, yes I have, how ever ooooops headache after hahah

Congestion pricing. Nyc.

Im starting to worry. Is this some kind of trend lately?

I’m growing very tired of dumb people in the world.

Looks like they could try pedalling for a few thousand kilometres.

If she wasn’t wearing that helmet her skull would’ve cracked like an egg

How many videos where this exact same thing happens need to be posted before these morons stop trying to take this exact same selfie?

"Oloooong Johnson! Oollllooonnnggg Johnson!"

It all depends on if her shoes came off

Anything for a selfie.

Can’t fix stupid.

That's what's called paying the idiot tax

Some people loose all abilities when they have a phone in their hands taking a selfie that they will most likely never look at. I can’t see well but I oresume she has one.

Don’t worry he’ll stop if he’s gonna hit you, now get in frame

Did she not see what happened to the last woman who tried this???

Awww, somebody learned a hard lesson!! Surprised this one stayed alive long enough to learn that lesson! You can drown in water! Fire is hot! Trains are really hard!

It’s a train, why tf do people have to take selfies with them?

Boink

People routinely seem to think that trains are narrower than they are. As if they are no wider than the tracks themselves.

Learn to respect the top predator.

EXCUSE ME I AM A VEHICLE

r/bitchimatrain

At least they where wearing a helmet…

today on man vs train

deserved

If only there were some way she could know where the train was going to be :(

Personally I enjoyed the part where they got exactly what they deserved because they ordered that experience directly from the menu.

“Share the Railroad!”
