answering Herr Zierke:

I think that this here

qualifies for "moronic".

If you listen at 0:29 it says a message from the conductor asked them to leave
the train and the doors were opened onto the track, not the platform. So it
wasn't the passengers fault. Unless my french language isn't as good as I
thought.


I can confirm that your understanding is good enough.

I understood the first report about the Berlin S-Bahn failure also as
saying that the S-Bahn officials asked the passengers to leave the
trains and walk to the next station.
