An Oregon man was killed when he was struck by an Amtrak train near Kalama, Washington Saturday morning.

The man and another woman were travelling from Tacoma to Portland. They walked down to the river to have a smoke and then onto the tracks to snap some selfies.

They failed to notice a southbound Amtrak train that was approaching from the other direction.

The man's last moments were spent standing on the southbound tracks taking selfies as the northbound freight train whizzed by.

The woman escaped without injury but the man died at the scene. The man's identity has yet to be released.

Please remember everyone, walking onto the tracks is illegal, but if you must take a selfie, make sure you look both ways.
