This is the moment a woman was hit by a high-speed train while posing for snaps - and somehow survived the collision.

Nini Lomidze said she was miraculously unhurt in the horror incident at a railway track near Tbilisi, Georgia. 

Footage shows Lomidze, who was wearing a figure-hugging red dress, approaching the track as she prepares to pose for a photo. 

The train driver can be heard sounding the horn to apparently warn the woman that she was too close whilst she stood by the tracks fixing her hair and straightening her outfit. 

She struck a pose when the train was just a few feet away and within moments, the vehicle hit her upper body and viciously knocked her to the ground.

Two friends were heard screaming in shock as the woman was sent flying. 

Commenting on her narrow escape, Lomidze said: 'I'm fine, and thanks for your messages, they were very touching.

'It was just an accident.

'I did not know the track was in use and trains were in operation again.

'I really didn't know there was a high-speed train coming.

'When I heard a sound and looked, it was nowhere to be seen.

'Suddenly, in a split second, I looked up and realised it was going to hit me.

'It isn't the driver's fault or anyone else's.'

This comes after a 29-year-old mother was killed in a Mexican town by a vintage steam train back in June after standing too close to the track for a selfie. 

Dulce Alondra, who was accompanied by her young son, was struck by a locomotive known as The Empress. 

In a chilling video, she can be seen telling the child to stay low and away from the train. 

But the single mum-of-one, who was standing up on a small hill, posing for a selfie, got a step too close and was decapitated.

Just prior to the woman being struck, a voice can be heard warning people to stay far away from the train.
