Crazy story - rsx - Mar 18, 2018
So this happened 2 days ago when I was walking to work, that it was just too crazy not to share. One of the most shocking and crazy things to happen in my boring life.
So I live pretty close to my work, and I walk to work sometimes when I can't get a ride. I walk along the train tracks with no problem mostly. That day I was walking, and I noticed that there was a mom and her son (no more than 4 years old) trying to get over to the train tracks. Between the train tracks and the woods there is this crick type thing which is really muddy, so she was trying to walk along a log to get over with her son. As I was walking by she stopped me and asked me to hold her sons hand and help him over, so I did. As we were waiting there for his mom to cross over, I hear this train horn blaring behind me. Without even thinking or looking, I grab pick this kid up and jump over this crick, getting my shoes muddy but making it over safely. Nobody was hurt. Got over within 3 seconds of the train passing us. Heard the conductor yell at me "IDIOT!!" as he went by. Yeah I know man, I should have gotten him to the side of the track but we were only standing there for a few seconds.
We didn't even hear this train coming until it honked its horn, and me and the mom were just standing there in shock about what just happened. Before I left she said "thank you for saving his life".
Was the craziest thing i've ever experienced.

Oh shit. I'm glad everything went well.
I'm glad you managed to save someone and even more, you did it instinctively. Gratitude is also nice. Both for you, kid and the mom. All 3 of you were saved that day.

Shit was crazy man. I keep thinking like what if I didn't instinctively grab the kid, and just jumped over myself. It makes me sick thinking about it i'm just glad that it all went down well.

You are lucky considering how many deaths happen on the tracks. People usually freeze when they hear the horn and the train hits them.
Good job on handling it and not panicking.

Glad everything turned out ok. But now you always have a crazy story to tell of how heroic you were.

Just imagine the sorrow that mom would be engulfed in if you had selfishly saved just yourself. I bet she is telling the story to everyone who cares to listen. ha! Jesus wept!

Oh man, sounds pretty crazy and exhilarating, thankfully nobody was injured.
Odd that you couldn't hear a train approaching though, as those things can get really loud.

That is crazy, I am glad that nobody was hurt.
