Almost witnessed the train accident...

[DrRapid]

So yesterday was San Juan in Spain. A day which we celebrate with bonfires, fireworks and parties. It's one of those days which you really look forward to since you have so much fun. I love throwing the bangers and going out, it's great. Well yesterday or really, last night, I went to Castelldefels beach near Barcelona where loads and loads of people go to celebrate San Juan on the beach. I passed the train station at about 11:15 and over 1 hour later I found out that there had been an accident only 15 minutes later. About 30 people were ran over by a train as they were crossing the railway to the other side. 12 of them died and 14 are injured. Damn! I carried on having fun during the night after that but I kept on thinking about it. How close everyone in the beach were yet they were still all celebrating. And how close I was to see such a terrible thing happen. I met a guy later on who was acting rather odd. He was just staring blankly at a bonfire shirtless and talking to himself. I was told by some and later him that he had witnessed the accident and saw people die in a horrible way. He was going through post-traumatic shock I guess. I really felt for him, and for those in the accident and for their families and loved ones. I can't believe myself that I was so close to experience it, would have been terrible for me. I just felt like telling this really since it's something that has happened so close to me...

[Dark Blue]

[DrRapid]

I'm still quite shocked about it, I really hope those injured get through all right.

That's horrible man. It's always so weird when you think about stuff like that, that one night you can just go out like any other night having a blast and then you die. Well I'm glad that you didn't witness it man.

Thanks, yeah it's just sad not even getting the opportunity to say buy to anyone.

I am very thankful that I wasn't there to see it or even worse to actually be on the track, I probably wouldn't be able to deal with what I would have seen. It is crazy indeed because it happened in a town I know very well, that is very close to me and that I was in when it happened.

I saw this on the Dutch and Spanish news. It's terrible what happened, thank God that you weren't one of those people or the one to witness such a gruesome scene.

[ChronicJon]

That's crazy....be thankful you weren't involved in any way.

Hopefully, the injured pull through and my blessings to the families of the dead

That's insane. More insane than someone who likes Michael Cera. Titties. Fucking titties ON MY DICK!

[gutawafang]

Wow.

I feel so sorry for that train driver - even though it wasn't his/her's fault, they'll feel the guilt of that for the rest of their lives. It's porper fucked up.

I remember seeing some girl get run over once by a car and that shit messed with my head for months. Hitting and killing 20 people, regardless of it being your fault will ruin your life.

Most of my thoughts are with family of the deceased though - young lives as well. Terribly sad.
