Mooning Man Dragged 200 Yards by Moving Train

The joke was on a 22-year-old German man when he mooned a departing train and got his pants caught in the door, dragging him half-nude off the platform and onto the tracks for over 200 yards.

According to police in the north Germany city of Bremen, the man was kicked off the train for not having a ticket, which caused him to press his butt cheeks against the windows as a form of protest. But the train got the last laugh when he was left dangling by his pants while the train pulled out of the station.

"It's a miracle he wasn't badly hurt," a police spokesman said, noting that the man's legs could have easily gotten caught in the train wheels. "This sort of thing can end up killing you."

A passenger eventually pulled the emergency brake and paramedics were dispatched to rescue the mooner, who was left with only a few scrapes and bruises. The man now faces charges of dangerous interference with a locomotive, insulting the staff and causing the delay of 23 trains.

Let this be a lesson to anyone thinking about mooning a moving train: Always remove your pants completely before doing so.
