footage shows the moment a young man diced with death as he staggered across a live railway track - just seconds before a train thundered past.
The shocking CCTV has been released as part of a warning to student freshers following the worrying near-miss in Lincoln city centre.
The video shows a young male, looking worse for wear, clambering over the barriers before stumbling across two live tracks on Lincoln High Street.
Just four seconds later a heavy freight train blasts through at around 100mph blaring its horn while the man seems oblivious to the danger.
