Personal trainer killed while filming on train tracks
1. Personal trainer killed while filming on train tracks
For the second time in two months, a
freight train has killed a personal trainer
who was filming too close to the tracks.
And it happened in Georgia, less than 13
months after Sarah Jones was killed by a
train while filming "Midnight Rider" in
Jesup, GA, and only a week after the films
director, first assistant director and unit
production manager were convicted on
criminal trespass and involuntary
manslaughter charges.
Achilles Williams, a popular Atlanta-area personal trainer, was hit and killed by a train Tuesday in
the suburb of Buckhead while filming a YouTube workout video. His death comes exactly two months
after actor and fitness expert Greg Plitt was killed by a train while filming a sports drink commercial
in Burbank.
According to police, Williams was skipping rope near
the train tracks when he was sideswiped by a speeding
freight train. A friend who was filming him was
knocked to the ground by the impact but was not
seriously injured.Its not known if they had permission
to film on the tracks.
