Trains kill father, son at same spot

Passion 07-12-2006

train has run down and killed a man at just the spot where his father met the same fate eight months previously, a Malaysian newspaper said on Saturday.

The 34-year-old man, V. Marathai, was cut in half when a moving train hit him early Friday in the northern Malaysian town of Ipoh, the Star reported.

His father, N. Veerapan, 64, died at the same spot last November when he crawled under a train he thought was stationary.

"My father used that track as a shortcut to his friend's house," the paper quoted V. Chandran, a brother of the bachelor Marathai, as saying.

I had a friend who got killed in a car accident along with her mom, but 9 months earlier one of her bros died in an accident in the same intersection and 11 months before that another bro also at the same intersection. Just the dad and one bro are left!

That is some seriously messeed up karma right there. I would be too superticious and have to move to another city if not state.

Oh my that's tradjic. I agree with Pussy, if the same thing happened to another family member in the same spot I would seriously move away from there. I would be too afraid of it happening again to another family member.

No matter how much you run from it fate can always catch up to you. If its your time then its your time, and there is nothing you can do about that.

That IS some crazy karma.

Well karma will just have to catch up to me.

This kinda reminds of the movie Final Destination, but I tell you right now I'll be the last one standing!
