Anantapur, November 19: In a miraculous incident, a man escaped unhurt after lying down under a moving goods train. The incident that happened at the Anantapur railway station on Sunday was caught on a cell phone camera. The video of the foolhardy stunt was going viral on social media. Passers-by later reprimanded the man for his recklessness.

Instead of using a foot-over bridge, the man got down on tracks to cross over to the other side of the railway station. When he was crossing the tracks, a goods train parked on platform number one suddenly started moving. Upon seeing a train moving towards him, the man laid still between the tracks and let the train go over him. Delhi: Three People Run Over By Train Near Nangloi While Drinking Liquor on Railway Tracks.
