[Video below.] A crowd of people pushing together managed to lift a train carriage in Perth, Australia early this morning to free a man who was trapped between the platform and train. The man was boarding the train at 8:50 a.m. when he slipped and got stuck.
“He stood in the doorway and as he was sort of taking up his position there, one leg slipped outside the door, slipped outside the gap, and he was stuck,” a Transperth spokesman said.
The staff at the station then organized the crowd to push the train back while it was stopped. The man apparently did not sustain any serious injuries. Read more at ABC News.

We call that team work!!
it probably only had to move a fraction of an each to free his leg
Everything that occurs is for us to learn how to be closer to Hashem.
Comment #1 “Another Lakewood Resident” spoke well: Hashem is teaching us that through achdus we can overcome what appears to be an unsurmountable obstacle.
Amazing and inspiring. Immediate inspiration and action can be so corrective,
it is inspiring to watch beautiful achdus when the world seems to be losing itself!
