fake or not?

It might be real. He's hardly being kicked by the train though, but more like the train driver.
You can see a foot and everything.
(The foot does look somewhat superimposed.)

Not fake.

There's campaigns going on atm here in Holland to prevent people from "walking the train tracks" (wich is also a 300€ fine here, if you get caught doing it)

Because people do stupid things nowadays for some attention. And in this case it also got him fairly rich.

Damn, I have seen this video for days on the front page on YouTube but never watched it. That must've hurt him.

In my opinion, that is one hundred percent real. I can believe his intention was to video the train passing behind him.

wow, I just thought he was kicking him to be a jerk, but basically saved his life and the train operator had very good judgment by knowing that little bar would hit this kid

30mil views doesnt give you that much. I think. Maybe.

More like 60-100k. But there is no ads so he made 0$

If one has a YouTube partnership may one receive around $2.5 for every 1000 views.

31 534 507 / 1000 = 31534,507 X $2.5 ≈ $78 806 ≈ 56 854 €
