Had this bloke walked across the road just one second earlier he would have inadvertently purchased a one-way ticket to the emergency room.

The man in question obviously didn’t want to hold up the cars that had stopped for him at the pedestrian crossing, so he quickly shifts it up a gear and jogs across the icy road. However, he didn’t see the oncoming tram that was heading straight for him in time, so he gets thrown off balance and slips at the side of the road. Thankfully, the Russian bloke managed to hold his balance just enough to prevent him from colliding with the tram, but we can safely assume that he needed a new pair of jocks afterwards.
