Man tries to karate choptrain,fails

2010 Reader Submission
Pending Acceptance

A 33-YEAR-OLD man has come off second best after trying to karate chop a moving train at Eagle Junction station last night.

A Queensland Rail spokesperson said the man failed to jump onto the moving train about 8.10pm, injuring his head and falling back onto the platform.

But police said the man tried to karate chop the train and his leg fell between the train and the platform.

He was transported to hospital in a stable condition with a laceration to his leg.

Police are investigating the incident.

What WAS this dolt thinking? Karate chopping a train is bad enough, but a moving one? Thanks, Glenn!
