Man jumps in front of train to become "Internet sensation"
A 28-year-old Chinese man has been arrested after jumping in front of a subway train. The man leapt in front of the moving train with a camera because he thought it would be 'exciting'.
He did the stunt because he wanted it to become an internet sensation. CCTV footage shows the man leaping from the platform and onto the tracks in front of a oncoming train on the Shanghai subway.
He continues rolling the camera even when on the tracks and when the train came to a halt over him. He lay down between the tracks and avoided injury.
The man then calmly climbed back onto the platform, while still filming the train. An anxious train conductor came out to investigate. The man told the train operator that he had accidentally fallen onto the tracks.
When questioned by police, the Chinese man admitted that he did the stunt for fame - hoping it would become an Internet sensation.
