In 1992, Rolyn J. St. Louis , a homeless man in Columbus, Ohio, died while pennying the tracks. He'd placed a penny on one set of tracks, then stood on another, unaware that the oncoming train he'd heard was coming down the set he was standing on. at the Cramlington station in Northumberland, England. He'd been trying to flatten pennies after getting the idea while drinking with friends.
