A man has survived clinging to the outside of a high-speed train in Austria, the state railway said, after it reportedly left while he was having a cigarette break.
The man grabbed on to the outside of the train at St Poelten, west of Vienna, late on Saturday, said Austrian railways spokesperson Herbert Hofer, and was later taken onboard after the train performed an emergency stop.
“It is irresponsible, this kind of thing usually ends up with someone dying,” Hofer said.
“And you’re not just putting yourself in danger, if you end up under the train there’s rescuers, there’s police, fire service that come.”
The railjet train was on its way from Zurich in Switzerland to the Austrian capital and left Sankt Poelten on time but arrived in Vienna with a seven-minute delay, Hofer said.
Railjet trains have a maximum speed of 230km/h, but it is not known what speed the train was moving at while the man was clinging on.
Smoking kills in more ways than one, apparently.
He won’t survive smoking either way.
Maybe it’s time to reconsider that Smoking addiction.
Also wie man so saudeppad sein kann, nicht für ein paar Stunden oder bis zum nächsten längeren Aufenthalt auf die Tschick zu verzichten zu können, werd ich selbst als Raucher nie verstehen. A ganze Reise zum Teufel hauen wegen dem Dreck – traurig.
Wenn der Zug Verspätung hat, wird der Aufenthalt gekürzt. Nix neues.
Well procedures will have to change. It’s the entire job of train dispatchers to make sure there isn’t anyone trapped in the doors or clinging on before giving the driver the Right Away (or whatever the Austrian term is)
He probably only survived because austrian high speed standards (230 km/h) do not match the high speed standards of other developed countries
Who knows if this story about that he was smoking and that his luggage was on the train is even true. At the moment it appears that this guy has no legal status in Austria. Maybe he was just trying to illegaly hitch a train ride and wasn’t aware that it’s actually a high speed train!? (the high speed trains in Austria look pretty regular compared to high speed trains in other countries)
Edit: i’m seeing i’m already being downvoted for this commment, but honestly, I think you must be really stupid to cling on the outside of a high speed train because of your luggage (and yes, if he already was in the train before, then he’d know that the train goes +200km/h). So, either it’s just a complete moron or something fishy was going on here, just saying. 🙂
Man’s favorite movie must be Bullet Train.
Pity tobacco advertising is banned, that would have made a great advert….
Need to know this man’s grip strength.
Someone should tell him he is not Tom Cruise.
This guy was really insane. He really needed to take that train, I guess. xD
He was probably like shiiiii can’t be late for my minimum wage job! Best hang on to this high speed train and hope I don’t die”
When I was a teenager me and my friends bummed this guy for a smoke. I kindly asked if he could share a smoke and he said “I’ll give you a fucking smoke”. Then he proceeded to cut me and my friends with razor blade which we didn’t even notice till we saw blood everywhere. While driving an ambulance to the hospital I shared what happened with medic. He calmly said “smoking kills” and it stayed with me.
So did he make it? Did he finish his cigarette? I’m going to Austria next week I need to know. I’m a greek chimney.
I was about to say that this likely wasn’t “high-speed rail”, but funny enough that guy tried this exactly on one of the very few high-speed rail sections (limited at 250km/h) in Austria.
From St. Pölten to Vienna-Meidling. So theres a chance they were going 230km/h, as that is the top speed of the railjet. Though, they did stop just 2km into the journey, so it probably wasn’t at full speed.
lol, what an idiot.
