Two men risked their own lives just two hours ago, (around 1 PM) to save a disoriented stranger who fell onto subway tracks in Brooklyn. Apparently, an unkempt-looking (presumably homeless) man fell onto the tracks at the elevated F line stop at 9th St. and 4th Ave. He appeared disoriented and unable to extricate himself from the very real hazard he was in, so two strangers jumped onto the tracks and walked the man all the way to the end of the platform, where there are stairs back up to safety.
We received an email minutes after Marvin Franklin was killed by a train at Hoyt-Schermorn's station and it was upsetting. We're equally heartnened that two Brooklynites risked their lives to save a man they didn't know who was also imperiled. More pics after the jump. The 4th Ave. subway station in Brooklyn's Park Slope is elevated and parallel to 9th St.

Oh, my god, watch out for the Third Rail!
God, I hope my commute home isn't messed up because of this.
This is what it means to me to be a New Yorker. Sure most of the time you're in your old world, but when it really matters, you will surprise everyone by risking everything.
These niggas best not take my glory. I'm the only African Hero in this 'hood.
What a difference: Two guys who take the time to help another, versus one guy (Andrew Speaker) who couldn't care less about others.
Unbearable Lightness of Being said it best: New York is defined by unintentional beauty.
True heros and gentlemen.
any chance nine eleven was staged and fixed? another thing that makes you go hmmmmmmm......
Well, don't forget that JFK's skull contained the true clues to solving the Roswell UFO mystery and Malcolm X was on the verge of revealing the cure for cancer. Everything is diabolical and nothing is nice.
@Hmmm: None whatsoever.
