Special Relativity: Train/Lightning Paradox and Simultaneity

In this video, I resolve one of the common special relativity paradoxes relating to simultaneity.

Really well explained needed it was thank you

Sir, Thanks. Because of this Paradox Enistein deduced that time slows down.. is that correct...
Please help make complete video how Einstein deduced that to explain this paradox.

This implies that the presence of the moving train it the cause of the apparent non-simultaneity for the person on the ground.

A person is 10 m apart the right glad and another 90 m apart the first so the first person sees flag on left first while the one at 90 sees 2nd flash first here too time dilates am I right the no motion how can this be possible

Sir Einstein deduced General Theory of relativity to answer another paradox as below. Please explain this in another video if possible... this goes above my head



"General relativity is a theory of gravitation developed by Einstein in the years 1907–1915. The development of general relativity began with the equivalence principle, under which the states of accelerated motion and being at rest in a gravitational field (for example, when standing on the surface of the Earth) are physically identical. The upshot of this is that free fall is inertial motion: an object in free fall is falling because that is how objects move when there is no force being exerted on them, instead of this being due to the force of gravity as is the case in classical mechanics. This is incompatible with classical mechanics and special relativity because in those theories inertially moving objects cannot accelerate with respect to each other, but objects in free fall do so. To resolve this difficulty Einstein first proposed that spacetime is curved. In 1915, he devised the Einstein field equations which relate the curvature of spacetime with the mass, energy, and any momentum within it. "

The person on the ground says a light strike happens before the other one. OK, but what is the difference with the classical (Newtonian) mechanics explanation ?

How fast is the train moving? Is it close to speed of light? I mean if the train move at a speed << speed of light, the distance traveled by the lightning at the back of the train( as seen by the standing observer) is fairly negligible righht?
