Realistic Death & Injury Count on Sodor (S1-7) 

BestAverageGaming nah, they pay you if you survive

Camelback Studios Or their families in the event of death.

100K a day!

Sodor is between the isle of man and the uk so thats free healthcare you oblivious foreigner

D'oh!!!

And there’s probably way more In the “new” and cgi series

@@sobblefan8220 Nah there will prob be less crashes in the reboot than CGI and MODEL series

Yeah

@@sobblefan8220 Because its a true baby show now

@@seardadsdasd yea because Thomas and friends was a true adult experience.

Gotta make a video on the perils and deaths (alleged) of Thomas and friends SH

Hello, Shrouded Hand. Everyone here.

WTF SHROUDED HAND WHAT ARE YOU DOING HEAR

To be fair, some of us have a shocked type of laughter/chuckle that it’s not even funny. The type of shock that everyone would mistaken you’d find the craziest s**t funny.

pretty bad goof

After being crushed to death

That's assuming that the guard didn't jump before the van went to pieces.

2:11 That would make for an interesting new "grittier better remake" of Thomas featured in current year.

The people in the Le Mans disaster except go fast the cars breaking then those fans last words

He DID jump out! That one probably shouldn’t have been counted.

Austin love you Sam s. Trains

Do as a certain Welsh narrow gauge line did, for many, many years - they ran without any insurance at all, and were "always very careful"!

I can only imagine that all the sodor rail workers would be constantly protesting and striking since they most likely have no union protecting them from a complete lack of workplace safety measures and no health coverage since no one would be willing to insure workers in an extremely hazard-prone industry where people die and get injured like it was the steel mills of the late 19th century

Yep it must be lucrative

That or the fat Controller workers insurance policies are threw the roof

But they were killed.

That's the joke.

Basically.

Turbo711 they weren’t hurt. Hurting is pain. So due to the inertia they would die instantly

That could be higher, 35 is just the amount of fatal accidents

By switching Thomas off, you mean closing the steam valves, or extinguishing the firebox, or releasing all steam pressure?

Maybe she was just being sarcastic to contain herself. She almost lost her life with her family and now has extensive damage done to her home!

also, do you have ANY idea as to how big E2s are?? Fuckin chonky tank

That makes me laugh 😃

Dollars?

She really gets mad cuz the breakfast was ruined? Man, that lady and her family should be mad because they almost died

@@ILoveSuperVideoGames That's the joke 😅

Tv: Luckily no one was hurt Reality: every one was hurt

Let’s be honest with the amount of incidents on sodor if anyone actually got hurt the railway would a be shut down or b eventually run out of workers these trains used to crash like twice a week on a good week

tell me about it

If someone did get hurt, they would sue the railway.

I almost read that in Obi-Wan voice. *Oh I don't think so*

It's worth noting that the episodes in the first four seasons were all adapted from the books, so a lot of these crashes are Awdry's own doing.

Furious Sherman season three

@@furioussherman7265 Well, most of them

Is that his hand I'm seeing push Henry into the Flying Kipper?

The crashes from Series 1-4 are from stories written by Rev. Awdry, and he got them from real-life events in his own research. So I would think that the survival of persons in these accidents is realistic.

“So many 1000 ways to die”

More like "A million ways to die on Sodor".

More like 999 quintillion ways to die

More like "Infinite Ways to Die".

*O h m y g o d*

And making TV models of them would have been impossible!

That’s fair enough since the crashes are one of the best things about the Thomas franchise.

I mean also that and Godred being horrendously killed off

Godred 💀💀💀

Yeah, that's a fitting assessment.

Blue Eclipse 395 Imagine how rich the execs at the Sodor life insurance center are

Stepney Bulstrode Their safes are probably bursting at the seams.

Blue Eclipse 395 The amount of money in their banks has more zeros than the number of people who die in these crashes

Stepney Bulstrode Oh, definitely.

Sodor Wars: Attack of the Clones

RedRabbit 1987 “It’s over Percy, I have the high ground!”

"You underestimate my power!" (That's actually Revenge of the Sith BTW)

RedRabbit 1987 (Ah crap.) “Don’t try it.”

*jumps(?)* AAAAA

He’d be screaming like a little girl.

Ouch!

Bro nearly fell on the funnel!

Yeah, now that I saw real scale accidents on the news I know that if this were real there would be lots of injuries and deaths.

lol

a 12 year old after watching this: I wonder how my parents allow me to watch so much death

Turquoise Screen agree

A _scratch?_ Your arm's off!

I’ve had worse.

Crimson Dynamo You liar!

It’s just a flesh wound

The crashes in real life can cause death but not always. People can be badly hurt instead. The crashes in the actual Thomas The Tank Engine Show: Nope nothing but a scratch.

That's not meant to be taken seriously

You’d be pissed too if you had a really good cup of cocoa but a steam trains made you spill it

In the episode, the men did manage to get out just in time

@@zacharykim5596 The driver and fireman did. The guard isn't mentioned.

YEET!

They are probably well trained in escaping and landing on rough ground

Tyreek Murillo It doesn't make sense to me since the drivers control the engines

​@@florjanbrudar692 I know Right

@@florjanbrudar692 actually the engines control themselves

@@vincentikuomola2946 The engines can presumably control themselves but need crew for assistance

It's actually worth noting that in addition to being stupidly fragile. Humans are also stupidly durable. Utterly pathetic things that almost litteraly any other creature on earth would consistently come out of just fine cause major injuries or death with alarming frequency... But that the same time humans frequently walk off, or at least make fill recoverys with treatment from, mishaps that would be instantly fatal to near on anything else that wasn't so small that it would be functionally experiencing an entirely different accident. And most of both sides of that can be traced back to the advantages and limitations of the human brain and bipedal locomotion and the structures and systems needed to support both. A surprisingly high number of the deaths listed in this video would actually be survived with little or no injury (though the deaths by Crushing would almost invariably be fatal unless exceptional luck resulted in the individual getting off with a seveare maiming instead), though obviously not all of them, due to a combination of the above and the video's creator overestimating the speeds and hazards involved. Likewise, while many of the presumed injuries would be just that, a surprisingly large number would actually be a coin flip between "effectively unharmed" and "flat out dead" depending on exactly how things played out, with the in-between state of significant injury actually not all that likely.

If Thomas was rated R, episodes like Thomas and the Breakdown Train, The Flying Kipper, and A Better View for Gordon would be scarier than episodes like Thomas, Percy and the Dragon, Haunted Henry, and Percy and the Haunted Mine.

Yes.

@That Little blue tank engine also most likely injured/dead

George carlin

Yeah! George Carlin!

I mean, those would be helpful. Even Gordon’s Better View crash in season 5 was based on a real crash.

Percy’s promise was based on a real story and people did die in that instance

Sir. Topham hat:"Thats the 93rd body I've had to clone this month"

Has to be more than a pair anyway since the show takes place over several decades of the 20th century; hell, over the course of the story there's been three Topham Hatts because their fathers keep doing that "aging" thing.

Oh God let's not think of that

thomas would likely no longer even be sentient from the crashes hes been in

You know how people in comment sections of movies with a train scene say,"Luckily no one was hurt". Apparently they never gave Thomas a second thought.

@@harrisonofcolorado8886 yeah...........

@AI Iv same. Taking off the Nostalgia Googles really paint things in a different light.

For example, if the crew of the goods train Henry crashed into had remained in the brakevan, Henry would have crushed them to death.

Yep

I would say the same thing as you

The driver of 1996 canyon pass did survive after the half the train derailed...

He had to of still been burned. Also this reminds me of when my mom worked at McDonald’s and the maintenance guy had a seizure and his arm landed in the deep fryer and someone grabbed him and pulled him out but his arm was burnt pretty bad. He kept the arm at least, although the manager wouldn’t let them call 911 for an ambulance so the other maintenance guy wrapped his arm in a damp rag and took him to the hospital in the bag of his van.

There were. Sir Topham had them dealt with.

@@SgtChip Like any big industrialist railroad tycoon, you can bet that The Fat Controller had his share of regulators and politicians paid for in his pocket.

Sit Topham Hatt probably lets the health and safety inspectors choose their own bribe

ladies and gentleman, welcome to the Island of Sodor. Your all doomed. Or, what would you like your gravestone to look like... no reason. (okay the last one was a stretch XD)

@@jackswan3420 indeed!

It's probably just me, but I think that maybe TTTE (Model railway one) was more for grown up kids, like around 6-10, rather than like 2-4

@@dbzboi8389 nah. People just think "childish = safe".

There are more accidents considering Seasons 8 onwards

lmao

That actually made me laugh.

I suggest a thorough safety investigation and that Sir Topham Hat gets taken to court on account of his gross negligence for someone in a leadership role.

Or badly injured.

Surprising seeing you here

Make a video about this James!!! I'd love to see it!!

Oh wow :D James "is here" Edit: *PUN INTENDED.*

Hello James

Hello james

Casey jones him self holded the brake during that same crash. In the end he him self died in the crash but he did managed to prevent worse. Casey jones. Always in the hearts of many train enthusiasts (me included)

It depends on how many industries the Hatt family owns or at least have a controlling share in them. Assuming that they only have assets on Sodor and not anywhere else.

Yes.

Yeah. He would've run down anyone in his path. There would've been quite a few screams.

Who builds a chocolate factory at the end of a railway line at the bottom of a hill anyway??

@@gregkiteos1936 mr. jolly does

Maybe someone fell in the hot chocolate and died

And who put the barbershop at the end of a buffer

5:15 "well Gordon, i knew you wanted a paranomic view, but this is not the way to approve it

Your talking about the Montparnasse derailment right? (In the movie Hugo they made a perfect replica of the crash). Indeed a woman who was waiting for someone got crushed by falling masonry

5:56 Gordon forced it….. STAR WARS

Um yes they would be paralyzed in Accident 1. They would have suffered whiplash in Accident Two. Also yeah in Twin Trouble Crew would get badly injured. Possibly concussion if not paralyzed.

And if the crew was an unlucky enough to fall out of donald's(or was it Douglas') cab, which is likely since both of the twins have open cabs, they would cut them selfs on the scrap metal or fall onto the tender and sufocate on the coal

@@the_birb23it was Donald.

Lets not forget *My Eyes*

Vinyl Stash lol oh my god 🤣🤣🤣🤣

Someone please edit that.

@@BCRivers lol ask Thomas1Edward2Henry3 for permission lol

Considering they jumped out of engines that were traveling at high speed and most likely landed on concrete, yeah, most likely.

@@mercury7590 And the same when Daisy's driver fell out of her cap

Pretty much ye

Um not necessarily.

I feel like all of the crashes would make all of the engines look like bumper cars by bashing into buffers, rolling stock and other engines

Furthermore speaking of realism, I recently decided to update Sir T hatt III in my series for season 3 since I did the math of how old he currently is (He's 79) by added visible veins & wrinkles on his face.

why you liking my theroies?

Not in the RWS. He was thinking about how the other engine's fireman was complaining about his spilt cocoa (despite nearly losing his life). So it's different in the two series.

Breakvans guard would stay

Considering the time period the show takes place in i can asure you that even safety belts werent a thing really.

Hit to the crotch

I wonder many times the guy had to rehearse that without bursting with laughter.

Imagine getting nutted by a train

@@Kuriboh1008 Yeah imagine that

@@seardadsdasd yikes

I agree

They probably did know but it's a kids show so describing Henry's driver having his spine come out through his rectum or something wouldn't be appropriate, trust me I wish they could say that though.

I HATE HIM TO DEATH!

If there are Insurance Companies on Sodor, they're in SERIOUS financial peril from all the payouts! And if there are Accident Lawyers, they're going to make a FORTUNE!

RIP Unlucky Tug

@@user-sd7qo7qe4v what happened to him?

Harrison La time traveler He left RU-vid

Moussa Mains Roy I’ll consider it. S7 was weird for me cuz they put a few episodes on DVD in 2004 with the original music and then the rest didn’t air for like 2-3 years after, which at that point I had grown out of Thomas. Generally I feel like I like S7 a lot more than most fans.

So Was I.

There’d still be an accident. Since the trucks were light when going up, they stay down on the tracks. Since Percy is so heavy, he wouldn’t stick to the tracks or however you say it, *he’d fall into the coal hopper, and if engines have lungs, that would be the end for him- oh wait, he’s been buried in coal before and been absolutely fine.*
