Chinese Daredevil Jumps Under Train and Lives
Sunday, August 8, 2010 at 6:53AM The man hoped to achieve fame online. I think he accomplished it.
The 28-year-old performed the stunt one night at a deserted station on the Shanghai subway.
He filmed a train pulling into the platform and jumped onto the tracks as it drew close.
He then lay flat on his back and carried on filming as the train passed overhead.
The whole incident was captured on CCTV.
The train conductor slammed on the brakes and, fearing the worst, went to check under the train.
To his amazement the man he had just run over was standing before him alive and well.
He told him he had slipped off the platform but confessed it was a stunt after he was arrested by police.
He said: "(I thought) if I filmed from under the train, I would get a great view down there as the train passes over.
