He should never do that. Ever. That’s dangerous. The rails down there carry a very powerful live current that could mean something horrible if God forbid a human were exposed to it. Serious injury or even death. Those tube trains have communication systems on them that route directly to control centres at each and every station for a reason.

Aha Richard.... You must be station staff .... No rail is 750 DC .... The rail he is standing over is 250 Dc and the furthest rail ( nearest the wall is 450 Dc ) .
@@kingash85 DC current pulls you towards it ... Meaning if you land on it evenly you can't pull away ... People attempting suicide/ pushed tend to fall with force sliding by the 250Dc middle rail.... Hence why the rail with most current is furthest away from the platform (450Dc).
That looked a bit dangerous to me. I don't know for sure if the random object was just a sheet of paper, if there were any metallic layers on top, it could be conductive and gave the conductor an electric shock the moment he picked it up.
Otherwise it should be a disservice. So they had few steps: They opened a cab door, they removed an ad from track and they returned to the normal positions (closed cab door).
Unfortunately now days you would have to shut the whole station down just to get that. Recent health and safety is a load of bollox bring back the old days
This is a very risky retreival, because paper can conduct when it is damp, or even the glue on the paper. I would have insisted that the power be turned off, or at least rubber gloves or an isulated rod be provided. 600V DC can fry you in the 'wrong' circumstances.

One thing that could be a potential hazard other than that guy falling out the door onto the live conductor rail is if there was a potential conduction risk though that poster. If that paper had been sitting in a pool of water and was damp and with the guy clinging onto a bare metal handrail on the cab, as that paper drapes across the live conductor, then a fair old amount of current could have passed straight though his heart.. something to think about
Yes, looking at the thumbnail I too just for a second thought someone was stood there holding something like perhaps a coat that had been thrown or dropped on to the track.
Notice how the lighs switch and look really wierd at 0:06 when he opens the door. I think its a safety feature so the workers know that he left the cab. Idk i just know it look strange
Yeah it’s the lights switching from day running lights to marker lights, marker lights are for when the train is either at the depot or stationary for long times. On the new underground trains I think they are linked to the door I don’t know but I’ve seen it on other trains with a front entrance service door
I used to work in advertisement, and I used to get this all the time where I would be told by the marketing team where to put the advertisement, and they wanted the advertisement in really really dangerous places where an advertisement should never be.

@@paulanderson79 but if he fell onto the live rail he would be fine, plus the train wouldn’t because the train is covered in paint and 420V isn’t enough to go through paint or plastic
@@Gabes1321 he would not be fine if he fell onto the live rail because chances are he wouldn't *just* be touching the live rail, he'd almost certainly touch something else and have a large potential difference across him. He's not just some pigeon on a wire.
@@wolfieeeee256 the tube runs at less that 1000V. That’s nowhere near enough to conduct through the concrete in the floor.
And the world has breathed out. We are safe !!!
Heroic rescue !
One thing that could be a potential hazard other than that guy falling out the door onto the live conductor rail is if there was a potential conduction risk though that poster. If that paper had been sitting in a pool of water and was damp and with the guy clinging onto a bare metal handrail on the cab, as that paper drapes across the live conductor, then a fair old amount of current could have passed straight though his heart.. something to think about
This is called the third rail method
They appear to be less aware of high voltage currents
"high voltage currents" xddd. What is that supposed to mean? 😂
Chuga choo choo. I'm a train and I approve this video :D
In the thumbnail I thought someone was standing on the third rail 🤦🏻
Me too... I thought I could see two arms and two feet/shoes.
@SNOWDROP10NYCTISALSOVERNONBLV no, like every third rail in the entire world, kts on the side, the fourth rail is middle
Omg, the ad _touches_ live rails when he removes it. Imagine if it was conductive even a little.
It only touching one so it's not an issue, the problem would be if it were touching both
Who else thought there was someone standing with a huge bag in the thumbnail?
Yes, looking at the thumbnail I too just for a second thought someone was stood there holding something like perhaps a coat that had been thrown or dropped on to the track.
TH-cam algorithm shows me this 9 years later exactly on Christmas Day
Notice how the lighs switch and look really wierd at 0:06 when he opens the door. I think its a safety feature so the workers know that he left the cab. Idk i just know it look strange
Yeah it’s the lights switching from day running lights to marker lights, marker lights are for when the train is either at the depot or stationary for long times. On the new underground trains I think they are linked to the door I don’t know but I’ve seen it on other trains with a front entrance service door
For me, I think its related to restricted manual, not sure though
I used to work in advertisement, and I used to get this all the time where I would be told by the marketing team where to put the advertisement, and they wanted the advertisement in really really dangerous places where an advertisement should never be.
And a couple of times, I actually had to say that it’s done on paper to not do it
The background music is originally created for this video.Later some film producers stole it and used for their films...
And it went back in time to be copied by a schauspiel direktor of a provincial Bavarian town.
