The moment she was hit by the train was caught on camera and her friends can be seen reacting immediately.

They are said to have been walking along the tracks in Purjworejo in the Java province when they stopped to pose for a picture.

Ely Hayati, who can be seen standing behind the group, was struck on the head by the passing train as one of her friends took the pictures using a selfie stick.

She was rushed to a local hospital by the police and pictures show her scalp having been sewn back together.

She will require further medical attention and doctors have yet to report whether she will suffer from any long-term brain damage.

Local authorities did not clarify whether the girls were walking in a restricted area next to the tracks.
