This rescue was no small feat — the man who had fallen couldn’t hold himself up, so these men had to lift him with some serious strength to free him from the tracks.
They got him off the tracks before the subway came, and all was well.
What an incredible life-saving act! Thank goodness these police officers and this bystander were around and aware of the situation.
The man who fell onto the tracks surely appreciates this kind and incredible save.
