Lucky only that he didn't end up under the wheels. Looks like a significant head shot on the side of the train, unconscious aerial pin-wheeling followed by a ground slam and the rider remained unconscious. I saw no proof he survived in the video, but if he did live, he has head trauma.
An electronic tech I hired a few years ago was in fact run over by the wheels of a train in Fla and it left him missing major body parts, he was highly reconstructed to be able to have a somewhat normal life. I believe a lot of alcohol led to falling on the tracks where he lay passed out until the train came by and ran him over.

The rider appears to also have ridden around the dropped gate--especially given that the biker comes into view across the centerline and given that there's a gate down (and a light station) on the opposite side of the tracks.

Definitely looked like head spatter ala the Zapruder film. No motion afterwords.

Either he didn't see the train or thought he could beat it. Either way, that's probably the most ridiculous accident I've ever seen.

Is this for real? I know a lot of *********, but nobody stupid enough to continue riding towards the track when an approaching train is easily visible.
PS: "Head splatter" appears to be bicycle helmet disintegrating before being ripped from aforementioned *******'s head.

According to the info on Youtube, the guy survived to be fined for running the light.

Yes, Darwin would be very disappointed. Modern medicine has now progressed to the point where we can revive people who would be better off culled from the human race by their own idiocy. It may eventually lead to the total demise of the species.

Yeah, if you slo mo through it, it looks like plastic coming apart. It was a glancing blow, so maybe survivable. But dang!

And what a tragic loss to humanity that would have been.
I was hoping Amtrak or whoever's train it was would sue him. I'm thinking dents, paint loss . . .

There once was a ****** who rode his bicycle into the side of a train.
Really? Wow! What happened to him?
He became famous on the internet and was mentioned on NBC News in the United States.
