This is how it is, and I agree with the person who said it's safer there than in America - because the drivers actually know how to drive and are totally aware of the space they're in. I got pretty good at crossing the streets, and only once I had to give up and get in a rickshaw just to cross the street and go a block to the hotel. Most of the time, though, you can get across - just like the filmmaker did.
That said though, I must admit that this guy's a bit of an idiot standing in the middle of traffic. He should've waited till a gap can, even if it was really small, then ran like hell across! Which city is this in?
I've just come back from India and I can say if anything, this is an understatement! It was sheer hell and fuckin terryfying and I tried to avoid doing it whenever I could. The drivers are so rude and will push through at crossings even though you have the right of way. When I crossed at a crossing, a car could clearly see I was making my way across, but made no attempt to slow down and avoid me. Another time, I would've died under the wheels of a bus if the guy I was with hadn't pulled me away.
This is not an exaggeration one bit. Actually a lot of the places I saw when I went to India were even crazier. And to whoever said "they's just honkin cuz that aint a crosswalk!" your wrong. In India they honk at everything and everything is a crosswalk.
In India faster and bigger vehicle gets the right of the way (not by law though).. I've two sides to my driving, when I am riding my motorbike and when I am driving my SUV.. on bike I try my best to yield to the bigger vehicles, trucks, buses and all.. when in my SUV its opposite..
yes, I get it, but those beeping the horn are only making a bad situation worse. He does know what he is doing. Whatever happened to pedestrians get the right of way? Why isn't the traffic stopping? I know why.

You'd have to be insane or have a death wish to do this on a regular basis. Or even once for that matter.

Glad they both made it! Was that two people crossing a motorway or was that a regular road that people need to cross everyday?
Um, perhaps some kind of overhead pedestrian walkway might be an idea?
