    Level crossing risks at four year high

    1st one was close, 2nd not really but the 3rd…
    Science isn't about why, it's about why not. You ask: why is so much of our science dangerous? I say: why not marry safe science if you love it so much. In fact, why not invent a special safety door that won't hit you in the butt on the way out, because you are fired. - Cave Johnson

    There's only one winner between a 1000tonne train travelling at speed and...

    Well pretty much anything really.

      I'm not convinced about the first one. For a start it's in Wales, and for another, the red flashing lights aren't. I reckon they speeded up the film.

      Where I used to live, there was a level crossing, but also a footbridge so pedestrians didn't have to wait.
      Down with racism. Long live miscegenation!

        Maybe but there's no doubt about the 3rd, the train took his shoe off.

          I used to have to cross one of three crossing every day to get to previous ClientCo's office, and typically the gates would close at least 5 minutes before the train arrived. And often they'd stay closed because there was another train 5 mins away.

          I think they're making it up.
          Will work inside IR35. Or for food.

            I've never seen anybody so determined to win a Darwin Award.

              Photoshopped.

              1st looks like a fake to me.

                Hell of a good PhotoShop job then.

                The shadows are right, the reflections are right, it all looks right.

                The only thing I'd say is that the frame rate seems rather accelerated.

                Not a fake IMHO.

                You've come right out the other side of the forest of irony and ended up in the desert of wrong.
