Men sent flying after being clipped by speeding train
Two men were sent flying through the air after they were clipped by a speeding train while trying to cross the tracks.
The heart-stopping moment was caught by security cameras at the train station believed to be in Otrokovice, Czech Republic.
In the grainy footage, the men can be seen taking a shortcut to the next platform by walking across three sets of train tracks.
As they approach the platform, they see the speeding train headed directly for them but instead of turning back, they continue to hurry across.
The men climb up the platform just a fraction too late as the train hurtles past, clipping them both and sending them flying through the air.
One man lands off screen while the other lies on the empty platform withering in pain.
Witnesses quickly comes running over and one man can be seen calling an ambulance.
The men are believed to have survived the incident, although the extent of their injuries is not known.
