Thread: Motorcyclist hit and killed by train(in Bangkok)

Only 16 years old.

Only 16 years old. Silly boy.

........ and life just carries on, the gates open and the cars continue their journey as if nothing has happened.

what happened to the earlier clip with all the bodies in the road?

Bit of a Darwin moment really.

Train crossing, barrier down because train is coming, all vehicles giving way, never mind - I'll just pootle across without thinking twice (or even looking once)


"I just felt the world get lighter"

Hard to feel any sympathy for the twit, really. I know some family are grieving but such blatant disregard for safety it's inevitable. At least he didnt hurt anyone else.

helmet didn't do him much good i see

Darwin award ??

Pretty awful. Show it at Driver Education classes. If there is such a thing.

That's the most disturbing part IMO....

I guess this euphemism for stupid people is in rather poor taste:

"The lights are flashing, the gates are down but no train's coming"

Certainly had the inbuilt inane thai cannot wait anywhere trait in him.

Feel for his parents and the train driver

Can't even believe he didn't glance. Music through his headphones from his phone mp3 player perhaps? Many stupid folks do that nowadays

Good job the train didn't swerve to avoid him.
Could have been real carnage.

Sum num na. At least he didn't cause the death of anyone else, thankfully.....

He won't do that again.

We had one less retard in Udon the other day in almost a mirror image of that one. He left a nice Jesus Christ pose on the road as his legacy to mankind.

I like how the cars waiting just drove off..

Can you imagine the conversation in the front car?

"Look Somchai, that biker just got flattened by the train"
"The power of Buddha was not strong with that one.. hehehe"
"Noodles or Rice for dinner tonight?"
"Noodles"

...and life goes on.

The final chapter closes the book of life for one unfortunate whilst the book of life continues for Somchai and his friend in a chapter on whether it's rice or noodles for dinner tonight....
Life is fickle , don't you think?

Sometimes i think there should be some kind of Star Trek "Prime Directive" implemented on planet earth between nations.

The Thai brain is nowhere near the level able to invent the internal combustion engine.. therefore they shouldn't have vehicles.. too dangerous.

Same with Africans and guns.. and the wheel.. hehee

In fairness he did look to his right, but he didn't look to his left.

The gate are down neal, i was taught many years ago sometime before BC, when the gates are down, stop behind the barrier.

I thought the barriers and lights were there to warn road users that a train is coming.

Still, Thais watching this will note that he did almost save himself a few seconds.
