An amazing story of how one boy "The Trainrider" handled his terminal illness. After been diagnosed with leukemia he decided to spend the last year of his life surfing on trains. Performing dare devil acts like surfing on the back of Germany's fastest high speed ICE train which can travel at speeds of up to 330km/h and which had never been done before.

This was indeed a very dangerous thing to do but this is how he choice to live out the last year of his life. Living life to the fullest for as long as he could. His true identity has always been kept secret to avoid prosecution but he famously became known as the Trainrider.

His motto: You can only be free.. When you have nothing to lose.
Respect and RIP.

This just goes to show you not to take life for granted. This great guy made it to a level that few of use will ever be able to reach and made it into the history books forever. I love the music and editing in this video. What a great memorial for a truly brave lad. RIP

Amazing! Has his identity been released since he died? Obviously he can't be prosecuted now.
