Commuters push train to save trapped man in Perth.

Commuters in Australia teamed up to help free a man whose leg was trapped between a train and a platform, by lining up alongside the carriage and pushing the train. The man became stuck after he slipped and one leg became wedged in the gap, as he attempted to board a Stirling to Perth train on Wednesday morning. In dramatic CCTV footage, commuters can be seen rushing to the man's assistance and tipping the whole carriage in a bid to free the trapped commuter. Passengers were originally asked to move to one side of the carriage in order to transfer the weight of the train away from the man. Sadly that plan failed so passengers exited the train, lined up alongside the carriage and started pushing. An ambulance was called to the station but the man did not sustain any serious injuries. Report by Claire Lomas.
