A train staffer was hailed a hero after a viral video showed him pushing away a woman posing for a picture as a train approached her from behind.
The video, whose date and location remain unknown, showed the woman posing for a picture reportedly for her Instagram as the train approached her from behind.
However, a member of train staff’s quick thinking prevented a tragedy as he got to the door of the driver cabin and pushed away the woman.
The viral video, shared by uniladtech was captioned, ‘Some people remain oblivious to their surroundings.’

Another user added, “That kick was surprisingly gentle and nurturing, to be honest.”
A third user wrote, “His foot being able to touch her… she’s definitely too close!!”
