30 miles per hour on a narrow indiana bridge slows down but can't stop. the two women, helpless, try to run. finally this woman lies down on the tracks between the rails with the train just 30 feet away the second woman does the same. >> the engineer assumed he was calling into our dispatch office to let them know he had killed two people. thankfully they crawled from underneath. >> reporter: these women survived uninjured by being as flush with the tracks as possible. there are just ten inches of space between the train and the track. you can see from the video just how close the trains are. >> it can take a train, a freight train, over a mile to stop. >> reporter: from 2011 to this year, trespasser fatalities are up 36%. there have been 167 so far in 2014. compared with 128 deaths in all of last year. for these women it was just a close call. the only thing bearing down on them now is the law. both women will likely be prosecuted for criminal trespassing.
