This video is from Madrid a couple of years ago, but is well worth a viewing and shows how a man had a lucky escape from an oncoming train.

By Declan Whooley

The man fell onto the train tracks and while many of the passengers waiting for the train tried to motion for the oncoming train driver to slow down, one person bravely rushed to help the stricken passenger.

The hero of the day, who happened to be a policeman, got there in the nick of time, dragging him off the line just as the train speeds past. A near disaster averted in just the nick of time.
