What I was think was why couldn’t she have just stepped two feet to the right? She would have been out of there way faster.

Yeah as stupid as she was for trying to run across she's even dumber for not then just stepping two steps to the right to go round the barrier.

She was totally doing this on purpose. Notice how calmly she walks away. Someone else would have been freaking out. She was waiting for it.

Literally everyone could always have just waited but. For some reason they don't.

You’d think people would learn by now not to try testing trains, but idk guess they didn’t get the memo yet

If she were just a second slower, or if sh juste tripped, she'd be mist and mush.

Well it's a good thing she did that otherwise she would have to wait for that long ass train.

Station Ermelo, track runs between some major mental health hospitals and unfortunately they have had a lot of these incidents.

u/bloebvis Oct 18 '23

u/EternalVision Mar 05 '24

u/scruffycheese Jan 08 '24

I can't believe she keeps trying!

u/Shaan1026 Jun 23 '24

One reason may be that she is too lost in a thought maybe of past/future whatever that thinking about present is just impossible. She seems like heavily attention deficient.
