Hats off to people.

 In Australia. :)   

WATCH: People lift train to save man who was trapped - Rediff.com News

A** commuter whose leg became trapped between a train and the platform edge was freed by his fellow passengers, who collectively managed to push the entire train up and away from him.**
**In dramatic CCTV footage, commuters can be seen rushing to the man’s assistance and tipping the whole carriage away from him until he managed to free his leg. Shortly after they boarded the train and services resumed as normal.

Thanks Arleitter. Yes us Australians are creative, giving people who are humanitarian to the core.
It’s the best country in the world according to me. Natural beauty, fresh, clean air, friendly people with great humour and far away from the world’s problems. It’s a perfect island paradise.

Re: People push train off to save a man whose legs trapped in a gap.

wow…great collective effort by commuters. kudos to them

there was a similar incident when an Indian girl fell in the gap between the train and the platform…people tried their best to free her but when they did [after they broke the edge of the platform with hammers], it was too late. the girl lost her battle and died on the way to hospital.

this trick of tilting the carriage is not possible because Indian railways’ rolling stock is made of 100% steel which makes it very heavy to tilt while the Australian coaches have good amount of fiberglass in them which makes it lighter and a lot easier to push in order to tilt.
