Horrifying video shows 2 women about to get ran over by freight train
Two women trespassing on railroad tracks in southern Indiana narrowly missed a fatal encounter with a freight train when they were caught in the middle of a bridge as the train approached, authorities said.
The action, which unfolded on the morning of July 10, was captured on a camera mounted on the train, and authorities released the video today.
When the train engineer spotted the women in the middle of a 500-foot-long bridge known as Shuffle Creek Trestle, the engineer immediately applied an emergency brake and repeatedly sounded the horn. At first, the two women try to outrun the 14,000-ton freight train but when they realize it is catching up too fast, one woman lies down in the middle of the tracks.
The other woman runs off to the edge of the 80-foot-tall bridge as if to contemplate jumping off, then runs back into the middle of the tracks just as the train catches up with them.

The two women survived and fled the scene. They were identified by police and it's now being treated as a criminal matter.
Although the women survived, the video is still disturbing to watch...
