P.S. Mentioning COVID-19 is considered cheating in this thread (just kidding, fire away).

    This is similar to what they train Swedish train drivers to do if they are about to run someone over.

    They are taught to close their eyes hard, cover their ears and scream as loud as possible.

    This to distances themselves from the impact as much as possible

        Yeah, it is grim, but on the railroad, the question isn’t IF you are going to kill someone, but rather, when.

        So stuff like this is sadly needed.
