A 6-year-old fell from the platform at a train station in India, and was unable to climb back to it while a train was speeding towards him • Suddenly, a local worker ran up to him, rescuing him at the last minute
A train worker in India rescued at the last minute a 6-year-old boy who fell to the track from a train speeding towards him
.
Documentation published on the BBC News website shows the boy trying to get on the platform on his own, but unable to climb back while a passenger train is speeding towards him.
Suddenly, the worker ran up to him, lifted him to his mother and moved off the railroad tracks at the last minute before she ran over him.
Only in retrospect did it become clear that the boy's mother was blind, so she could not help her little son herself.
After the tense rescue moments, the mother began to cry and thanked the train worker.
