Emergency at Kings Cross !

[@Susu986]

Yeah, well, that what I have heard, one under. Sometimes you can also hear it when they tell you eg. 'Victoria line is delayed to person under the train'. These people don't screw around they put it in your face.

[@Ed.E]

It's funny how chill the pre-recorded message is.

[@RDavid-pl4is]

Not really. The camera is shaking, indicating that the person filming is shaking like a leaf after what they had just seen.

[@FarmYardGaming]

It being chill is more a reassurance thing. If it were screaming at you to get out there'd be a crush.

[@WagDemTails]

I could tell how scared you were from how the camera was shaking! Dont worry i had to go through this. My friend wouldn’t evacuate

[@ethanch3011]

When you say man under the train, the code name is A One Under

[@CoastwayWill]

0:07 Yup! There is a short circuiting bar! More evidence it was a one under

[@Susu986]

Yeah, that is something you can't hear every day. When I was there first I had no idea where it came from, only realized it later... Never thought helicopters can have sirens... :)

[@iwatchfunny]

wow, in a emergancy the escalators reverse to go up, not down! Clever!

[@fleadust5107]

Random fact about London Fire Brigade, the rescue units are called Fire Rescue Units, there are only 14 of them in the whole of London and that’s out of 102 stations!

[@cesridon]

Yes, Piccadilly line and plus this happened to me once but London Bridge smoke at Westminster and it was both jubilee line.

[@strongiron246]

0:02 *siren:* Attention please! Due to a reported emergency, would all passengers leave the station immediately.

[@H4RL3Y448]

Booowooobooowooobooowoa

[@jk09345568]

Hello people read the description. The emergency was that someone was on the tracks.

[@squishyswamp7896]

Why do they all have to make a scene about this? It's just some 20 year old man drunk and jumping on the train tracks and getting to get a train to run him over.

[@BCAmtrak1]

W need this on our subways, underground stations in the USA

[@meggriffin7938]

The real message: Attention, guys. We need to evacuate the train station right away. If you're still on the train heading to wherever, your train will head you back to the train station right away. If not, please get off the train and walk with your train guy on your way out of the station. If you're already outside, please stay outside. Thanks for the company.

[@coshiro1]

Was the very loud beeping at around 1:33 the ticket barriers in emergency mode or whatever it’s called?

[@justrowewithit2463]

Christian Oshiro I’d assume so

[@OwenR10]

Will other trains be moving on the metropolitan line and circle line and Hammersmith and city line

[@alfiehealey6103]

+Owen Carter I would think not, they generally evacuate the whole station. The Piccadilly line was probably just pulling into the station to evacuate or it was non stopping

[@meggriffin7938]

That's what I was saying!

[@ax2bxc]

Yes,But station closed to public

[@AlexDoddsVideos]

i think only those on oyster cards would touch the reader to make sure they dont get charged a penalty fare

[@AprilFool91]

the fire station is only down the road hence the high number of fire trucks. plus for a man under a train they would need police, fire and ambulance plus the underground emergency unit.

[@fleadust5107]

The first two (the FRU and the pump) are from Euston and are the only appliances there

[@samuraiMOURS]

This happened on the Piccadilly line. Announcement in station: Attention please! Due to a reported emergency,would all passengers leave the station immediately! Announcement in train: Attention,Please leave the train now! Please leave the train now! Attention,this train and station are being evacuated. Please leave the train and follow staff's instructions to exit the station.

[@lindylou2003]

Ahh is that what the emergency was. I arrived in that station today on the Victoria line and heard that siren telling us to get out. I never found out what the emergency was.

[@alieujobarteh5472]

its can sometimes occur when there's a fire or one under and ect sorry if this is very late

[@jakebahulse894]

One Under??????????

[@Person-vi6pt]

+Jakeba Hulse Person under a train

[@jk09345568]

Yeah.

[@CoastwayWill]

Sadly, I think that is the answer

[@ococircusboy]

@kaiyan246 the electricity cuts out on the tracks when emergency doors are opened / estop / power cut by grid.

[@olivereltoro]

Was it the Piccadilly line

[@jk09345568]

Yes.

[@jk09345568]

It is evident in the video that a person got on the tracks because of a short circuiting bar.

[@jameschristmas3206]

Why evacuate the whole station for an incident that only affected one platform?

[@justmemiles]

+James Christmas Well they don't know the cause of the incident

[@LucyMichela]

+James Christmas If someone pressed the Emergency button provided, that is the standard procedure

[@CoastwayWill]

Easier for emergency access

[@dpog]

The whole station will be evacuated in case, say, a fire was on Platform 1, they wouldn't want people waiting on other platforms sticking around until the fire spreads to those areas.

[@extrude22]

They evacuate the whole station so the emergency services can do their job un impeded.

[@jakeross7995]

I think I remember reading about this in the newspaper back then

[@Susu986]

@kaiyan246 That's a good question, even though I was there, I don't know. We didn't hit anyone I believe.

[@a4its]

How many people was there.

[@Westlondontransportguy7045]

0:06 what was that infront of the train

[@foreverbreeze]

short circuiting bar (bit late sorry)

[@jk09345568]

Person on the tracks.

[@garhead]

I remember that exact day I was 4 and I came back from work we stopped here to get another train until the alarm went off

[@WistfulnessLonging]

Hey man you're camera has a lot of jerkiness can't you get that fixed?

[@JMac7991]

Why are people stopping to tap out their oyster cards? The gates are open and it's slowing down evacuation..

[@Susu986]

Jamie McEwan otherwise they will be overcharged the next time they start a new journey without finishing the previous one

[@JMac7991]

I get that but surely it should be the last thing you should think about if there is an evacuation signal telling you to leave.

[@SOSOwner]

You know that if they don't touch out, they would be charged the maximum fare.

[@Creighton-Jones]

Simple soul that I am - I have never fully understood why HEMS attend in situations such as this. King's Cross station is about 300 yards from University College Hospital (complete with A&E / Trauma Surgeons etc). In the time it took to load the casualty into the helicopter, start engines, run pre-flight checks etc - they could have already been at UCH ! Nevertheless - "Thanks" for uploading the video.

[@howardstephens5003]

They would have gone to St Mary's as the nearest major trauma centre by road, not UCH. So air to RLH was a better choice.

[@irl_zulu]

Theres never enough room outside for these emergencies in these stations... They really should spread people out...

[@kevinlangstone609]

It's their fault for evacuating the whole bloody station. Of course everyone is going to congregate outside to see what's going on.

[@ruairidonnelly8394]

When you were there did u go to platform 9/3 4s?

[@rashikhullar2709]

Gosh....when did that happen?😱😰

[@jerrymiah3002]

7 years ago

[@northoltflightwatch]

Nice video mate you caught the helicopter siren at 4:31 and 4:44

[@lovelierlex]

I was just going to ask that... it seems a little extreme. But I guess it would be hard for the medics to get to the person if they had to shoulder thru crowds of people.

[@jk09345568]

There was a person on the tracks.

[@OwenR10]

Did the person die while he was under the train

[@jk09345568]

No.

[@wordedlemon6]

Was this filmed with a 1888 camera😂😂😂

[@iwatchfunny]

The safty priority is getting people out. If the station burns down, yes the station is smashed, but people got out. even if a few people died (God forbid) it would be better than many people dieing because they couldn't get out quick enough. I know it sounds a bit morbid but when you think about it it makes sense,

[@xXxLOUISE01xXx]

what was the emergency?

[@jk09345568]

There was a person that was a mental patient that got on the tracks.

[@sonconmas]

Was it fatal?

[@jk09345568]

No.

[@howardstephens5003]

Yes, died 3 days later at RLH.

[@damiennota5446]

No chances taken LFB 👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻

[@JAYJAY77216]

i was there on that day, a man got stuck under one of the trains, 6:19 lad at the side with camera, that me,

[@evertonblake7320]

6:19

[@kaiyan246]

0:06 why did the train stopped there

[@2_O-20]

A man jumped/was pushed onto the tracks (thats why theres a bar on the track at 0:07)

[@jk09345568]

Read the description rmeacham363. There was a man under the train(non violent).

[@OwenR10]

On the other platform in thevideo the Piccadilly line on the other platform was moving

[@Susu986]

that's cool man! :)

[@camothegr8]

wow.well done for the great filming,even though there was so much maddness every where.sounded seroius.did you see what happened

[@galaxytb147]

Idk I was only like 7 years old then 😂

[@howardstephens5003]

A one under, reported that the man died 2 days later in hospital.

[@MrPabzii]

i was there when that happend i was in a little kiosk across the street

[@jk09345568]

Questions will not be answered.

[@AmyelisaA]

he would of been shaking, he wouldnt of known what was going on, i would be shaking, and he was walking quickly, so i cant be helped really..

[@balrajsingh7734]

What happend

[@jk09345568]

A person got under the train.

[@extrude22]

you dont see things like this happen often

[@galaxytb147]

Yeah me too

[@jk09345568]

Questions won't be answered.

[@ThePerProductions]

Just a theory: Maybe staff or police need to get down ore something, i don't know :S

[@davemirra145]

this happened when i was in london. its just because someone 'accidently' hits the emergency button on the train, police, fire brigade, london accident and emergency team are called into the tunnel to find nothing! haha

[@Susu986]

No, I don't think so.

[@kaiyan246]

I see a point there. i saw something like this on the tv but the station wasn't evacuated. So stupid to let everyone leave the station for a problem on 1 platform. WTF?!

[@garycollins4489]

THESiNGiNGKETTLE

[@SupersonicOP]

NO WAY!!! This ant true a man under the train

[@SupersonicOP]

@Marc Allan Leslie that comment was 5 years ago I was 9 lol

[@ax2bxc]

Victoria line could help

[@davemirra145]

at 0:30 there is another train waiting in the tunnel...

[@evertonblake7320]

0:30

[@jk09345568]

*not

[@Rainbow55Roindo-vs4yi]

ooh aah ooh aah

[@aussie705]

:O o dear! hope he was k

[@davemirra145]

guy at 1:24 - YOLO

[@evertonblake7320]

1:24

[@NinjaJump177]

I'm in King cross new

[@a4its]

My god

[@ta400]

The station has to be evacuated, because all the staff have to go outside and look at the helicopter, and someone might nick something.

[@AmyelisaA]

*it.

[@jumpe5555555]

Lol at 2:24

[@evertonblake7320]
