I love the fact that he crossed the tracks again rather than leave the station, cross the street, pay the fare, and re-enter! Nice.

That took plenty of bravery to cross the tracks to save this man. I have always wondered if I have what it takes to abandon all reason and simply help a fellow human when they need it most. I believe I can, after all I am an RN and have been doing similar in a work capacity for 26 yrs. I only hope the alcoholic our brave man saved from possible injury or death will learn that there really are second chances. I am firm in my belief that this guy was likely on his fourth or fifth since that is the nature of addiction. Anyway, I hope the city does for this brave guy what they did for the other guy who covered up the guy who fell after having a seizure. Bravery off the job is to be commended even if the fool who he saved warrants no special attention. Life should be preserved, all life. Death, when not required to save others, diminishes all of us.

"Daniel, who has fractured riv, cocyx and vertebrae" I also fractured my riv once too. Whats really strange is that Daniel and I are the only two people in the world that have riv's. Hmm..maybe we are related...
