would they think you are merely taking a sun break or admiring the moon… ?

Ur question is a multiple choice one , sun break or Admiring moon ?
I would go with Admiring Moon , cause lying on tracks is only action of madness ....
and Moon -since ancient times- is so Related to madness that they sometimes called the insane ( Moon Slain ) , and that doesn't mean the moon killed him , it just means he got Cuckoo from admiring (starring) at the Moon ... !
P.S. I sometimes hate myself for doing that , assuming what other people mean ( I assumed ur Q. is multiple choice) but no escaping from ones Self .. right.?

Well the psychological concept of the bystander effect states that if the observers know that someone other than their self has observed your behavior they will do nothing. People will assume that someone else will help.
I strongly suggest you read the account of Kitty Genovese, she was attacked and stabbed twice, several people witnessed this and did nothing to help. The attacker returned 30 min later and attacked her again, and once again no one called the police. Over a dozen people witnessed this attack, no one saved her life. This is the most famous example of the bystander effect.
After all, how many times have you personally seen someone stranded on the side of the road with a flat and said to yourself that someone else will help them?

There's always gonna be some 'do-gooder' that'll want to 'save' you. But it raises an interesting question: 'Ownership' of a thing implies the right to destroy that thing. If I want to go out in my driveway with a large hammer and beat my Porsche into a shapless bass of twisted metal, I've broken no law(s) (as long as I don't endanger or harm any one else or try to bilk the Insurance Company into buying me a new car).
So..... If suicide is illegal, then do we --really- own our lives? And, if we don't, who does?

I lied down across the tracks so my dog could walk across my body to get to the other side so he would'nt get his paws caught in the tracks. Unfortunatly i was unable to get up in time and the train severed my body. My dog Kelly walked over and took a package of crackers out of my pocket and just walked away.He just walked away.

they probably just assume im drunk and ignore me other than that. I dont think neone would make me get off the track, unless they were one of my friends or family.

Three kinds of people and so three possible acts.
Ignore you.
Hurt you.
Help you.
