It’s so sad when some of us have to live suffer like this, humanity needs to step up like this woman who saved him from certain death

Unfortunately Barry it was this heroic woman. Not an imaginary man fairy in the sky.

I’ve got goosebumps on goosebumps. She not only saved him but also his family and the driver from unspeakable horror. Well done that lady!

And she could so easily have been pulled in to certain death. She leaned back enough to overcome his heavier body weight and inertia. Incredible split second technique and bravery. She is amazing!

Maybe he didn’t want to be saved.
I know how that sounds. I do. But my first reaction might have been “who are you to step in”.
It’s horribly complex and not at all straightforward.

I don’t agree, but she certainly saved the train driver from trauma too!

Some people thought it was fake, but nothing conclusive.
I’m wary of this clip Dan – it originally surfaced in December but no mainstream news outlets have reported on it… I’m sensing a hoax, especially as that account has already retweeted one or two other hoax stories

And yet.
Fake or not, a sentiment worth pushing.
