Baby survives being run over by a Train! Wow, just wow!

This kid has it all over balloon boy.

The video is shocking, but all comes out good if you are squeamish.

3. This video bothers me because I have a Thing about women wearing the wrong shoes
If you watch carefully the mother fails to stop the stroller because she slipped on whatever cute little shoes she was wearing instead of decent walking shoes.

I know, I know I'm a jerk. That poor child--(both of them)

11. True--That's just what it looks like to me. Pardon my opinion, I know it's naughty.

4. Brake? It's such a hassle. And what could possibly happen?
Mommy learned an important lesson today.

9. Blows my mind. Paranoid me, I always used the brakes and parked the stroller
horizontally on the platform so that if it rolled, it would take longer to roll anywhere dangerous.

10. Well, the train most certainly rolled over the top of the baby.

15. No part of the train was over the baby?
It we're going to nitpick, let's go all in. The front wheels of the train are roughly 6 to 10 feet back from the front of the train, and that portion of the train rolled over the carriage with baby inside.

Damn.

12. Tell you what. Let yourself be dragged/pushed for 100 ft over 3 inch screened "metal"...
...and get back to us on the nuances of the experience.

16. I dislike sensationalism. And course it's called a "miracle".
Edited on Fri Oct-16-09 12:22 PM by redqueen
Do you agree with that verbiage too?

8. Lucky Baby
Lucky Mom. I'm glad everything turned out OK.

Why do I want to slap the mom upside her head and say: "WTF? Pay attention." ???
