Death wish: Masked man lies on rail track as train speeds over his body – video

Whilst I cannot condone such apparently reckless behaviour, I also think that YouTube's censorship is excessive too. The account associated with this video has been closed, says YouTube. I make the assumption that is because YouTube, as self-proclaimed custodians of public morality and behaviour, cannot tolerate this video and the example it might set to others to try the same thing. Perhaps it's an issue of legal liability if someone repeats the act and gets killed, with the dependents then suing YouTube.
