One GoPro owner decided back in 2012 that it was a good idea to place his camera in the middle of train tracks to see what it looked like underneath the train. Granted, that sort of thing needs to be set up well in advance of an oncoming train for safety reasons, so you can get stuck with a whole lot of nothing before the train rolls in.

But once it does, it’s like getting hit with a gust of wind before being completely engulfed in rushing sounds and flashing lights.
