I'd say he took a fairly calculated risk :/ The only dumb thing he did was cross back across the tracks. |

the train was able to slow down and stop very quickly. i think it woulda hurt like hell if he was hit, but i dunno if he woulda died. |

Mike Grier would have stopped the train instead of pushing the van. |

I think he gets titanium balls for running back into the path of the train. |

When I think of "balls of steel" I think of every time I "sack it" on a handrail while skateboarding. Balls meeting steel is not quite as fun or herioc as pushing a van away from a train. Props to this crazy mf'r |

It sure would have hurt to been hit, but the train wasn't moving too fast and stopped quickly. |

To the people saying that since it was moving slowly he wouldn't have been killed - wouldn't he still have been killed? The train is huge, and all the force and momentum? I don't know. |

Fall on one of the rails when you're struck, and you're definitely dead. |

I don't know. Probably...but I was thinking the same thing. The train had pretty much stopped ten feet past the intersection. But it was still dangerous and required a good sized sack to do it. . |

I don't know. probably not at that speed. likely, he would he been knocked to the side, battered, bruised, scared, but for the most part ok. maybe broken ribs? |

Doesn't matter if the train was going at a fast enough speed to kill him or not, the dude still ran in the middle of a train intersection when there was an oncoming train in the distance to push a van out of harm's way. Balls of steel, indeed. |
