(Jeff Swensen/Getty Images)A 52-car freight train derailed near Saskatoon, Canada on Tuesday . . . and somebody's dashcam filmed it.
They pulled up to the crossing just as the train was approaching. About half of the cars went by before things started going badly.
Some of the cars started wobbling, and then tipping over . . . and then they all started piling into each other. 30 cars jumped the track, but luckily no one was injured. It's not clear what caused the derailment.
