It is not yet clear what caused the man to fall onto the tracks, but when someone asks the woman who saved him, ‘Did he faint or something?’, she says yes.
She told those on the platform; ‘I’m walking and he’s stumbling, and I’m looking at him, and then as he’s gone towards the train, he just slipped through the gap. And the doors are about to close and I’m shouting, “Don’t!”‘
