A PENSIONER who was urinating on a train track died in a freak accident when he was hit by a flying cow.

Shivdayal Sharma, 82, died instantly after an express train rammed the beasts and launched it 100ft into the air.

The odd incident happened in Alwar, India, where the cow had wandered onto nearby train tracks.

Another person was standing nearby and narrowly escaped being struck by the projectile animal, reports say.

The trains which run through the area where Sharma was can reach speeds of up to 100mph.

Railway Minister Ashwini Vaishnaw announced that measures such as garbage and vegetation removal had begun to cull the pesky cows.

The accident has caused many to rally for better regulation on the train route, which allegedly sees a lot of incidents with cows on the train tracks.

One railway even went as far to begin erecting metal fences along the train tracks to prevent wandering cows.

Earlier this week, a farmer narrowly escaped being trampled by a rampaging cow in a horrifying video.

Shocking video shows experienced farmer Dani Blair being attacked by the cow in a calving pen before her husband Matthew managed to intervene.

The horrifying CCTV shows the cow headbutting Dani into the wall.

As she attempts to regain control of the situation she is thrown in the air and lands on the floor of the barn.

When Matthew enters the ring the cow bucks her head once more before calming down as Dani manages to crawl out the gate.
