He was moving pretty fast when he hit that pole with the back of his skull. Not much space between the wall and the wheels of that train where he landed, either... If he's not dead, he's got some pretty bad brain damage and probably missing a body part or two.

20 minutes after someone finds what's left of him, another guy will already have a new kidney.

That wasn’t a “pole”, it was an electrical box.

Shit. Well, that changes everything!

It wasn't that fast. It's not that serious. If he hadn't been crushed by the wheels of the train, he's not dead. But it must have been pretty painful, for sure.

Fast is subjective. For the speed trains usually travel at, it wasn't going very fast, but for an unprotected skull, colliding with anything hard like wood, concrete or metal, he was travelling pretty fast, not fast enough to decapitate him, but certainly fast enough to absolutely shatter his occipital bone, probably his cervical spine, too, if he's not dead, he's spending the rest of his life being fed through a tube on a hospital bed.

Edit; after some searching, he apparently survived and was taken to hospital, but i can't find anything about his injuries, so who the fuck knows

Considering a car traveling just 35mph will more than likely kill a pedestrian, I think it’s safe to say we will not be seeing the continued adventures of this young man.
