Man risks his life for train selfie

Taking dangerous but spectacular selfies has become an extreme sport in China.

A middle-aged man stood in the middle of the tracks while a train was approaching just to take a selfie in Kunming, Southwest China's Yunnan province on May 10, Chuncheng Evening News reported.

According to a witness, surnamed Zhao, the man crossed the guard railings to take photos the moment the train came. Fortunately, the train pulled up two or three meters away from the man.
