Two women walking down railroad tracks in Indiana are lucky to be alive after nearly being run over by a train.

The two women were walking down the tracks and were crossing a bridge when the train caught up to them. There was no place for the women to go, so the only thing to do was to lie down between the rails and let the train go over them. With only 11 inches of clearance, the women escaped with their lives.

Yet, another reminder of why it's a really bad idea to walk on railroad tracks.

Here's the video taken by the train's security camera.
