A man got his leg stuck while boarding a train in Perth, Australia today – and passengers helped to free him.
Video released by the Public Transport Authority of Western Australia shows the man’s leg becoming wedged between the train and platform at the city’s Stirling Station. Workers were alerted and spent the next 10 minutes trying to free the man.

I'll be back in 17 mins to give my opinion.

Only in Australia. No way people here even think of doing that

Why do you say that? People anywhere would be willing to help a stricken person like that if you ask me. It's just human nature.

Just seems like everyone gets too caught up in their day to take notice of what's going on around them. Maybe that's just in the northeast

HOLY shite
i bet a million things ran through that guy's head in the 5-10 seconds after his leg got caught..999,999 of which were how horribly was he going to die.
quick thinking all around here to stop the train from leaving and then figuring out 75 people pushing together could actually tilt the train enough to get his leg free

Well the dude was delaying their travel, a lot of them had some self interest.

Now that guy has to make small talk with all those people in the same cabin with him. What a nightmare.

It's funny cause it's true. What if it was like a 1 hr trip. Thank you's only last a couple minutes. Awkward.

Definitely not. It's not like anyone actually ran to the explosions when the bombs in Boston went off....
