VIDEO: Dozens of train passengers band together to help man whose leg was trapped

Approximately 50 or more passengers banded to together to assist in rocking a train back and forth to free a trapped man.

The footage shows the man slip down a small gap while attempting to board a train in Australia this morning.

From the AP:

A passenger alerted railway staff who stopped the train from leaving, local media said. When railway workers realized the man couldn’t move, they called on other passengers to help.

The footage showed dozens of people rushing to help tilt the car to free the man, who fell at least thigh deep into the platform gap.

“It’s really heartwarming I think, to find an incident like this where everyone pitched in,” transport authority spokesman David Hynes said.

The man wasn’t named, but local media reported that he was believed to have escaped injury and caught the next train.
