  Most of the time, we're able to complete the circuit unless you're wearing rubber material shoe which naturally insulated you from the currents. Is he in his rubber boots?

  The electricity is only at the 2 side of the rail-way. The bottom is just normal wooden planks with gravels. I've walked on the rail-way before during a President Challenge few years back. The person brief us on how the rail-way works.

  Oh yah. Maybe he had a high resistance and the current didnt flow through him.

  Why not just run to the side of the track? If you fall, chances are you still need to orient yourself to ensure non-contact with the train.

  Last I know, I still can't fit between the gap the train's PA system always nags about.

  oh .. just face the ground and use the erected lan jiao to dig a hole in the gravel.
  
  Be thankful it is not an underground station ('cos no gravel).

  He was depressed and he was unhurt except for some slight swells on his right arm...
