When people pitch in

A man was getting on a train in Perth this morning when he stepped back and into the gap between the train and the platform. He couldn’t get out.

No problem, though. Because people saved him by moving the train.

“Everyone sort of pitched in,” a spokesman for the transit authority said.

“It was people power that saved someone from possibly quite serious injury.”

A comment on the Australian news site ABC is worth considering.

This is the sort helping out our species does all the time, we are, on the whole, very good to each other. Perhaps the rise and rise of the social psychopath and their dominance in business, politics(a business)and the media(a business) has us all thinking we a mob of rotters. Think of the majority of interactions you have with others. Humans are considerate of each other and their success as a species is probably due to this one thing above all other factors. Love you peeps, see you out there…
