The train in the clip is the German Inter City Express top speed is ~300 KMP/H. It's the second fastest train in Europe after TGV.
The Indian train won't even run more then 30Km/H with this much load. Top speed of Indian trains < 150 Km/H |

| That look crazy. I was wondering what he was holding until I saw the suction cups and rope. At least he had "tools" instead of just jumping on. He had nothing to lose. |

I guess it's not stupid when you consider the guy had blood cancer. Still, I wouldn't wanna wipe out at 250km/h. They'd have you wipe you off the tracks with a sponge and that ain't no way to go out.
Still, the man obviously had balls for doing what he did. I think it's a hobby i'd recommended only if you have a terminal disease. |

when you sky dive or do stuff like this you can breath through your skin via osmosis |

| Exactly what is dangerous about this? He is secured safely, the train window is secured safely as well. The worst thing that can happen is if you swallow a bumblebee at that speed. besides that, there is absolutely nothing dangerous. |

How do you know he was ill? And how did he die during this video? I'm confused... |

He didn't die during the video. He had cancer and he was enjoying his life by doing extreme things. He died naturally and it says in the beginning or the end somewhere and also in the description of the video it explains. |

"How do you breath in freefall?"
-- Through genetically developed gills.
This falls into the realm of urban folklore. One CAN breathe in freefall - if
it were necessary. However, due to the high speed of terminal freefall (and
much higher speeds in vertical freefall dives), the jumper's body is exposed to
O2 molecules at a much higher rate than someone walking around on the ground.
The body is able to absorb the necessary O2 through the skin. This is why
jumpers flap their cheeks in freefall, it presents a larger surface area to the
airstream for oxygen osmosis. Once under canopy, the jumper resumes breathing
normally.
This is also why jumpers do not jump on cloudy days or when they might risk
going through clouds. The moisture in the clouds can condense on their exposed
skin surfaces preventing the absorption of the necessary oxygen resulting in
suffocation. AADs are recommended for jumpers in climates where weather is a
factor. |
