Cyclist survives after being hit by high-speed train on level crossing

A cyclist survived after he was struck by a high-speed train on a level crossing.

The 26-year-old was captured on CCTV ignoring the lowered barrier in Poland last month.

The footage shows the cyclist being struck by the train and landing unconscious a few feet away from the tracks.

Officials have now posted the footage online as a warning against reckless behavior on railways.

A spokesman for the railway said that the man survived the incident and had been fined by the police.
