- premedios, on 10/16/2009, -9/+263What train platform is that slanted that a carriage goes off by itself! FAIL for the train station!!!!
- veggity, on 10/16/2009, -1/+229Holy crap! Those must have been the worst few minutes of that woman's life not to mention the babies.
- alanocu, on 10/16/2009, -3/+193Here's a news item - just did a search: http://www.theaustralian.news.com.au/story/0,25197 ...
"Having watched in horror as a three-wheel pram holding her infant son rolled off a suburban railway platform into the path of a 250-tonne train, a Melbourne mother took him home with injuries no worse than a bump on the head."
The pram and baby were dragged 30 meters. WOW, that is one lucky kid. - Shawn4168, on 10/16/2009, -6/+176For my fellow stateside dwellers, a "pram" is a stroller. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baby_transport
- kubedawg, on 10/16/2009, -18/+172wtf is a pram?
- Wakeboy1337, on 10/16/2009, -25/+165It's a homosexual name for a stroller.
- falser, on 10/16/2009, -5/+138Give the lady a break. She probably got an important text message.
- shamesh, on 10/16/2009, -10/+123Thank God for the Pram company for Awesome Quality,
- m4gic9, on 10/16/2009, -3/+110"our Pram is TRAIN PROOF"
- duk0r, on 10/16/2009, -0/+87I have lost all faith in Youtube.
"This video has been removed due to terms of use violation." - cygnus2112, on 10/16/2009, -2/+89Yeah.. I heard that place has strollers and wheelchairs and fat kids rolling into trains all the time.
- protodon, on 10/16/2009, -10/+94haha Pram
- tinkafoo, on 10/16/2009, -3/+81Mind the gap.. Mind the gap.. MIND THE.. ah *****.
- hilanderiam, on 10/16/2009, -0/+78And the driver, the people seeing it happen, me... *cringes*
- Awwzm, on 10/16/2009, -0/+77Now that she has a second chance, I'm sure she'll be watching her baby like a hawk.
- gizmo12688, on 10/16/2009, -1/+77That baby is like Bruce Willis in Unbreakable.
- anagoge, on 10/16/2009, -2/+66"HAY UR BABY IS ROLLIN AND IM LOLLIN TXT BK"
- Deltron03030, on 10/16/2009, -0/+59turns out the carriage was empty.. the baby was hiding in the attic
- kylescousin, on 10/16/2009, -20/+79Who leaves a pram with a baby that close to a railway unattented? O_o
Lucky he survived, but unlucky by having such an un-attentive mother! - thaprinze, on 10/16/2009, -0/+56Pram - Australian for baby force field.
- cyoder, on 10/16/2009, -10/+61You know, I understand that accidents happen, and the lady was just looking down at the approaching train and didn't see the stroller rolling, but-
Seriously, there's a ***** train approaching, and your child is in a wheeled vehicle meant for easy mobility. Why the HELL would you let go of the stroller at that point in time?! She's surely learned a common-sense lesson from this and likely won't let something like it happen again, but FFS, dude. - Ryan0617, on 10/16/2009, -0/+49Just found this video which is longer and has a news report- http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yQ24Mw_r0eo
Looks like it was a windy day. - roflbrothel, on 10/16/2009, -3/+51FOOKIN PRAMS!
- twiztidsinz, on 10/16/2009, -2/+49♫ I have to push the pram-a-lot ♫
- palehorse864, on 10/16/2009, -1/+48How did you squeeze 60 seconds into those 3, and on a 35 second video with almost half of it being replay.
I'll be honest sir, I don't get as much done in a day, and I think life is precious and should be savored. If you give me your secret, I could stretch my 70 something years into 1400 years. Please, don't keep this wonderful gift to yourself, tell others, tell scientists, tell everyone! - IKORKYI, on 10/16/2009, -10/+56WHAT THE ***** IS A PRAM
- holychicken, on 10/16/2009, -3/+46Honestly, people like you are why we have CPS taking kids away from parents for the dumbest reasons.
Parents are people. They aren't perfect. They make mistakes. They aren't paying attention every second of every day. Coincidentally, and horribly, she "picked" a bad time to very very brief avert her attention from the child.
Not to mention, they weren't "that close." She was almost all the way back. It is not like she was holding the baby on or past the line.
People like you need to relax and realize that accidents happen. . .and sometimes those accidents have horrible outcomes. but just because something bad happened does not mean someone needs to be blamed. - ZoomBoy, on 10/16/2009, -2/+42I THINK ITS THOSE THINGS FROM THAT DISTRICT 9 MOVIE!
- emecks, on 10/16/2009, -1/+39An incredibly lucky ending to that! Everyone gets distracted at times, but it just goes to show what can happen when you're not paying attention!
- joe573, on 10/16/2009, -6/+43so a pram is a stroller?
- mcphilip, on 10/16/2009, -0/+37Huh? More than one baby was involved? It's a miracle all of them survived!!!
- andrewh7, on 10/16/2009, -3/+39Video on Youtube that hasn't been taken down: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=th85V7g9rKk
- anagoge, on 10/16/2009, -1/+36Or like a Falcon.
- Myztry, on 10/16/2009, -0/+35I know an ex-train driver. He quit because a few people chose his train to commit suicide. He could see them and there was nothing he could do to prevent the train he was driving from killing them.
Slowing, slowing, slowing, crunch... - Crozz, on 10/16/2009, -2/+34I guess drains aren't invented yet down under.
- Greengoo, on 10/16/2009, -0/+31Last time I was in London I saw a pair of panties for sale with an underground symbol that said "Mind the Gap" on the crotch.
- mike42979, on 10/16/2009, -1/+31Sales will probably sky rocket now.
- sambaynham, on 10/16/2009, -1/+31AskOxford:
Pram
• noun Brit. a four-wheeled carriage for a baby, pushed by a person on foot.
— ORIGIN contraction of PERAMBULATOR.
Perambulator coming from perambulate, meaning 'walk or travel from place to place'
There you go. - Zoshchenko, on 10/16/2009, -2/+30I can see this story on Fox News: Obama Fails to Kill Baby with Train
- bigteebo, on 10/16/2009, -1/+28Any luckier and the baby wouldn't be hit by a train whatsoever.
- Stupidumb, on 10/16/2009, -5/+30How is babby foOHHHH FUUUUUUCK WATCH OUT!
- Kronos6948, on 10/16/2009, -1/+25I have to push the pram-a-lot.
- bnorman, on 10/16/2009, -0/+24I'm going to guess something along the lines of FUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUU
- Wakeboy1337, on 10/16/2009, -1/+24PRAM PRAM PRAM
- veggity, on 10/16/2009, -0/+23People really, really need to think twice before killing themselves with trains. If you really must do it, find another way. The impact on the train driver is life long.
It is one of the most horrible ways to die as well. Instant death is fairly rare. - palehorse864, on 10/16/2009, -1/+23I am so thankful this baby was okay.
For some reason though, when I heard Pram, all I could think of was the Monty Python Camelot song. - costumemaker, on 10/16/2009, -1/+21It's an expression, lighten the hell up
- merreborn, on 10/16/2009, -1/+21That level of slant is totally unnecessary for drainage.
Hell, you can have proper drainage with no slant at all. There isn't a single train platform in the bay area that's slanted, and they drain fine. - ItsMyWii, on 10/16/2009, -2/+22They put brakes on those for a reason.
- mikebites, on 10/16/2009, -0/+19I was on the london underground when someone threw themselves under the train. On average it happens somewhere in london once a week. You can actually feel the train go over the body. It's not nice.
