IDIOT's body likely would have killed others.
Glad the moron was caught on video.

naw
there wouldn't be a body left after a train moving that fast hit some one, not to mention the body would be drug under the wheels or probable smacked right into the station platform.
Two morons: train buff and engineer

I've been on such train/trespasser "collisions". He would likely be knocked into our videographer and other people behind the videographer, killing and injuring them.
The approaching enginner was an idiot NOT to sound his horn well before he arrived athe station where all the people were standing.
His warning was too late for anyone to even react.

really, you were on board a train that struck a pedestrian. Once you struck them what happened.
If you really hit someone you would know they get knocked aside or end up right under you and the force when hit is NOT enough to kill anyone else, injure yah but kill no.
Also in the U.K. use of the horn is NOT permitted in stations unless of an emergency and if you watch the clip AGAIN you'll see the crew was blowing the horn.
When a train is going 90MPH you wont hear the horn until the train is on top of you, unless their using 5 chimes and in the U.K. I don't think they use 5 chimes

In EMS I have been on several deaths.
The bodies were bounced off the the trains at great velocity.
Even when many of the bones are broken, a body still has lots of mass and hard bones.
Had the dummy been hit, his body likely would have hit the videographer and others at 90 mph - causing lethal blunt force trauma.
Oh, now I see the second video where the horn was sounded twice, still too late.
Should have sounded before the first train was passing and covering hearing the horn of the approaching 2nd train.
