Train didn't wake drunk Russian
A Russian who fell asleep between train tracks had drunk so much vodka he failed to wake up when a 140-tonne cargo train passed over him.

Vladimir Rasimov, 23, passed out and fell between the tracks as he took a short cut home after boozing with pals in a pub in Dmitrievka in the south-east of the country.

Train driver Vladimir Slabiy said: "I saw a man lying between the tracks and tried to stop, but it was too late. The train went right over him and I thought he must have been killed. "But when I got out and checked he was still lying there fast asleep. "If he had woken up from the noise of the train he would have lifted his head and been hit by the undercarriage and that would have been the end of him. It was lucky he was so drunk."
