The man was pushed into the tracks. Witnesses say he struggled for a minute to get up. The photographer says he couldn't have saved him.

Would you have saved this man?

    I have no idea but I doubt it. For people to be angered at this photographer is ridiculous! Photographers have some great cameras so who even knows how close he was? In the pic you can see the train so if he had tried to save the man he most likely would have been killed or at least seriously injured himself. I think it is much easier to for people to say they would have saved him when not in the actual situation. People blind themselves to all sorts of tragedies every day but when one hits the news they all become saints and would risk their lives to save a stranger, i'm sure. It's a sad situation but the photographer is not to blame.
