Video: Man narrowly misses on-coming train

NEW YORK (FOX 5 NEWS) - A man in Melbourne, Australia is lucky to be alive after making a very bad decision.
Take a look at this video. 

At the top of your screen in the video,  you can see him jumping onto the train tracks, trying to get to the other side.
Just as he gets there, another train pulls into the station.

With seconds to spare,  the man turned around and narrowly avoided being struck.
Officials say they released the video to show people the dangers of crossing train tracks.

After a spike in similar near misses, the video is being released to warn commuters of the dangers of trying these stunts.
