Heart-stopping footage shows daredevil jumping from a moving train into river below

This heart-stopping footage shows a daredevil jumping from a speeding train into a river below.

Yaro Panchenko, 18, is seen 'surfing' the subway car as it moves through his home town of Kiev in the Ukraine on August 1 this year.

Not content with just surfing the train, Yaro then leaps from the carriage as it crosses a bridge into the water below.

However, it didn't go entirely to plan as his Go Pro camera hit him in the face on impact and knocked out a tooth.

Yaro said: "The danger of this trick was that at the speed of the train and at a sufficiently high altitude, I could break my rib.

"I managed to avoid these injuries but not everything was so smooth.

"As I hit the surface of the water one of my GoPro cameras hit me hard in the teeth and knocked one out. I dropped the camera which sank to the bottom.

"The feeling after the jump was bad, my back hurt terribly, but as I said earlier, there were no fractures."
