Like others,this man too, had a dream. Like others, he too pushed his way into the crowded train Like others,he too wanted to get going before he got delayed Unlike others, he slipped and fell in the gap between the train and the platform at Kandivali station. And eight bogies went over him....... The man obviously has a Guardian Angel and supportive bystanders who told him exactly what he shouldn't do - move. And so the man lay absolutely still as eight bogies of the train passed over him..centimeters from his head. With in seconds the 12 coach train passed and the man clambered out,unaided,unhurt,but too shocked to speak to us after his near-death experience.....It happened during June 2007... thanks to Mumbai Mirror
