In Spartanburg, South Carolina, a man has escaped what should have been a sure fire death.
The unnamed local chose train tracks as the best place to lay his head down for the night, and remained sleeping even through all the noise and vibrations of an approaching train.
In fact, the man was so deeply asleep that he had to be woken up by police officers who had to search under the engine and then three rail cars down just to find him.
