I was on my way out to the cinema and i have to change lines to get to where i wanted to go. So there i am waiting at the station when my train is approching, i look round and down at the end of the platform is an outline of someone. The train sounds it horn then bam, the person jumps right infront of it and gets hit then dragged down.

The station went silent, some people ran to help some people ran to get help. It took 20mins for the ambulance to turn up although the person was probably dead already. It took almost 40mins for the police to turn up, how bad is that.

This is no joke i actually saw this happen with my own eyes.

Uh huh, Traffic Cops, I think that was the one. Did some young kid push this Police Officer onto a Train Line then run off? If so that was it.

But yeah, they did have to pick up the parts. Yuck.

MWA...

I saw that program. The train was on my line and was heading to Hounslow. Someone jumped under the train and the traffic police had to get all the body parts. I was waiting at the next station but the train was delayed, so I got the bus home. But yah, I remember that. Traffic Cops, yeah?

True Story.

I saw a programme on this a few months back. A camera team were following the Police around on their usual duties when they got this call to go to the Train station. There had been a jumper but it was at no suprise to the Police, because it happens all the time apparently.

They then had to go on the track and pick up all the body parts. Now thats the sick bit.

Thats really funked up man, its the sort of thing that stays with you for a while.

If you have had enough of life then by all means top yourself if you think it is necessary but doing something like that had a knock on effect on others and it aint right.
