Man survives train jump
By Ian Morris

A HEREFORD man bent on suicide survived after jumping in front of a train, a court heard.

The driver, who screeched to a halt, thought he had run down Michael Harwood but then saw him standing unscathed.

Ordered to get off the track, Harwood berated the driver and called him "a fat scouse".

Full story here

The shame of this story, is that Harwood is living in a different world, a schizoid concoction of his own mind, that is on a different plain from the rest of the world, and eventually he'll find a way by his own hand or with the help of society to send him to oblivion..
