Drunk French teen falls asleep on a railway track, has a train running over him and survives.

A drunk French teenager narrowly escaped death after falling asleep on a railway track and slumbering undisturbed as a high-speed train roared over him. The 19-year old, whose name was not released, remained fast asleep face down on a stretch of track near Saint Nolff in southern Brittany, as the Quimper to Paris train passed, leaving only a few grease stains on the back of his jacket. The driver saw the body lying on the tracks and slammed on the brakes, but was only able to stop a few hundred metres further on.

The teenager was making his way back from the Saint Nolff music festival when he stopped to take a nap on the railway line. Roused by police and fire fighters who attended the scene, the young man gave a one-fingered salute before rolling over and going back to sleep.
