Russian friends Olesya Belmasova and Anastasiya Kirillova, who are both 16, suffered horrific burns after brushing against a live rail track in the Russian city of Taganrog.
They climbed on it because they thought it no longer worked but the train sat on tracks with thousands of volts running through them.
The friends were spotted by a passing worker, who witnessed the horrifying moment they were electrocuted.
"I was walking towards them to ask them what they were doing when they were suddenly blasted to the ground," he said.
"One was completely blackened and the other was on fire as if she had exploded."
The two girls were rushed to a children's hospital with 70% burns and several fractures.
