Tube passenger's head crushed when they urinated between two moving carriages | The Sun

A TUBE passenger's head was crushed as they tried to urinate between two moving carriages.

The accident happened on the Piccadilly Line service earlier this year, according to a report by Transport for London.

The commuter suffered serious injuries but miraculously survived the bizarre incident.

Tube carriage doors can be easily opened as the train is moving but signs warn of a danger of death if passengers do this.

The off-the-rails stunt was revealed in Transport for London's quarterly health and safety report.

Amongst the gruesome accidents included a woman who died after falling down steps at Walthamstow Central station in North East London.
