[0:00]I looked down on the train track, I just see a guy just shaking lifelessly, and I could tell he's in distress. The man was actually being electrocuted. I'm hearing everybody scream, "Help him! Help him!" Help my man! Help him, bro! You know, I don't see nobody taking action, so I figured why not step in and help? He understood that he could not wait for 911, so he took it upon himself to jump onto the L platform. I get down, I get a good grip of like his arm and I know that I'm gonna get shocked if I touch him. Anthony attempted to pull him off the electrified rail, but that sent a current through his own body. And it was painful like, I felt it all through my body. It's like sticking a fork inside of an outlet and just holding it for about 30 seconds. After three attempts, Anthony was able to get the man off the track, but his heart had stopped beating. Then I hear somebody on the platform telling me, "Do CPR." So I flip him on his back and I just perform chest compressions.
