Man Takes a Selfie in Front of a Speeding Train, Gets Kicked in Head

A young man's viral video he uploaded to YouTube teaches an important lesson: one should not attempt to make a self-portrait photograph in front of an oncoming train.

For unknown reasons, the man, identified as Jared Michael, decided to take a selfie right in front of train tracks as a locomotive passed him by. In the video, a train engineer can be heard yelling at him and seen sticking out his leg and kicking him square in the head.

Jared Michael posted the action-packed 10 seconds long video to YouTube, with a short summary of the events: he explains he attempted to take a selfie while a train passed a 'safe' distance behind. He then admits he still might have stood too close and 'messed up'.
