It would have been SUPERB if she had been obliterated unto death. A
lesson for all door jumpers.


A bit tough on those who chose not to jump, though.

In fact, she was entirely in the right: she didn't try and jump the closing
doors, and when her coat got caught and she couldn't free it, she had the
presence of mind to quickly pull it off rather than being pulled into the
tunnel by the departing train, just ahead (she was at the front door of the
train). She then told the PSA on the following train, and staff went and
retrieved her coat from the tunnel.
