Had this been another possible 7/7 situation, this man would be a hero and prevent such a thing, this is exactly what to do in this situation of finding an unattended item and I feel safe when I know there are people brave enough to whistleblow when there’s something suspicious. Bystander behaviour can be dangerous! If this was a real situation and he did nothing, he and everyone else in that train would be in danger. Thank you! This is useful for me as well to keep note on what to do if I need to use the alarm.
A close relative of mine was killed in 2004 in the Madrid train bombings, and it was done through an unattended bag with dynamite inside it. These things happen, sometimes when you least expect it, and they wreck entire lives. You did the right thing by taking it seriously
Definitely the right thing to do here. Any unattended bag, anywhere, should be treated as a "suspicious item." Last time I saw an unattended bag on a train in my city, I didn't touch it, then sent a text to Transit Police describing the bag, when I saw it, which carriage I saw it in and where, and which way it's headed. Our trains are fully automated so there isn't always someone at the ready but additionally you can also speak to someone in the control room via two-way intercom or press the silent alarm and have the closest attendant meet the train at an upcoming station. But yeah, number one rule about finding an unattended bag in public: _Don't touch it!_ You don't know what could be in it.
Considering how advanced those disguised bombs can be, while I was a LEO, we were taught about bags that had pressure/proximity sensors installed to them in case someone would wanna tamper with the mechanism to defuse it
Unaccompanied Bag, absolutely the Right Decision. I’d just have moved further away and possibly Stood Behind Something Solid. Thank you for Caring enough.
Just to add: it's also worth remembering that if you spot something suss between stops, advice is to wait for the next doors-open before pulling the lever. That's the official advice and the trains obvs: so you and everyone else can get out safely and fast. Even if it really was a bomb: you are in more trouble if you stop the train than if you try for the next station. Same advice with fellow passenger taken ill: they will get help faster at a station. Only time to pull handle between stops is if there is an immediate danger to life that is made worse by the train moving. Example passenger has hand stock in closing doors but train moves off anyway dragging them along platform. (Not a brilliant example because the system should spot trapped limbs)
Passenger Emergency Alarms on automatic trains will not stop the train. Will only stop train on picc& Bakerloo. Pulling the alarm and telling the driver lets the driver call for assistance in advance so when the train arrives the staff will be there faster
I would much rather have an alarm pulled on my train 10 times a week for a false alarm regarding unattended bags than no one alerting me or the driver and the unthinkable happen. 101% right call. No good rail worker will tell you off for being our extra eyes and ears!
@@Nooticus Procedures all rail staff are trained in is used prior to making delay costing decisions. Plus, having 2 members of staff, being the driver and myself onboard, means I can usually have the alarm reset before we even get to the next stop and investigate and go from there
You definitely made the right decision here, well done! Most likely in these situations it’s just a case of people forgetting their belongings but you never know. It’s best to assume the worst and report it as suspicious baggage just in case there just in case there was something like a bomb in it.
thanks for pulling the alarm to call police. even if nothing dangerous was in the backpack, the police often will call the owner of lost items and let them pick it up at the police station. I had a similar event happen when I misplaced a locked briefcase with $10,000+ of my store's inventory of trading cards & was glad to be contacted by police to pick it up at their lost item room.
Tbh even though there is a bag on the train it must be checked VERY carefully. Some people just take no notice. And you never know what’s inside… But you did a good job and thank you for doing the right thing!
Don't understand why people dislike that this happened, I don't approve of the worker just taking the bag because better safe than sorry but are people really gonna ignore what happened in 2006 or as recently as 2018. Props to you and TfL
In 99,9999% of the cases there is nothing wrong with the bag and was it just a forgotten item. But you'd better be safe than sorry, there is always a chance it was left on purpose and might do a lot of harm to people in the carriage. So very well done, please do it again when you find a bag, package, etc..
Delaying let's say two hundred people by two minutes, let's say, times 99.9999% vs. bomb kills let's say three people with another 40 years left times 0.0001% chance converts to cost to society of 6 hours vs 4.4 days. Point being, probably add about another 9 to that even doing just a pure inhumane mathematical calculation. Add another 9 in case you're assuming a 7/7 death toll (and probably another 9 accounting for injuries). Add another 9 since this train was basically empty. So yeah, could make an argument for 99.99999999% of cases should you report this if you have no information to the contrary, and given it was there when he got in there was no other information.
for Americans curious why British and more specifically Londoners are extra cautious about abandoned bags is because of terrorist attacks that happened in the early 2000s a few buses and a train were targeted by a terrorist organisation and they left bags with explosives behind that of course detonated and caused injuries and death, If 9/11 involved the subway system in New York I'm sure you'd act the same way
@@Mongchong_123 Yeah Waited for the train to comeback to get my bag I knew exactly where i had left it on the train so when the train come back I was like some one nick my bag thank very bloody much you muppet.
Where I'm from, every bus and train has signs that say "Vigilance saves lives". This was the right thing to do, I'm more surprised that the train staff took the bag them selves instead of calling the police to handle it.
It's good of seeing the person doing the right thing. Normally this doesn't happen to me but if there was a suspicious item in the train I would be in. I will report it.
Once as a young child I was on the way to my primary school and left my backpack there by accident, there was nothing really important in there (except a book I enjoyed) but I eventually got a replacement and I hope I didn't cause as much of a fuss as this😅
For those of you saying it wasn’t a big enough deal to pull the alarm, this is where you’re wrong. Because anyone could’ve left anything in the bag, it could’ve been a bomb or something. You just never know, and it’s better to be safe than sorry.
I don't know why that staff would just remove the bag without bringing in BTP officers to assess the threat first, even an innocent looking item could be a bomb.
They knew that a passenger had accidentally left their bag on a train and was looking for it, and the bag matched the description given, so they were satisfied that it was not a threat. If they weren't already aware of the lost bag, they might have treated it differently.
@@Andronk they are trained to identy the basics at least so if the staff are suspicious then they would start the process of of evacuating the train and the platform or the whole station while they wait for police however if they the staff are not suspicious about the bag they they will likley contact btp to double check but they will likely move the bag to a staff area so they can get the train moving again they are trained to makes the service as safe as possible while causing as little disruption as possible
I work at an airport we are trained too keep an eye out for unattended luggage and what to do if we come across any that training sticks with me everywhere I go now in the current climate you can't be too careful
In New York City Subway, we have a emergency brake and a emergency intercom if someone left somethin’ behind, the T/O or Conductor come to pick it up and they prolly take it to the SLAF (subway lost and found)
If you're lucky that's all that happens but mostly likely the storm troopers show up and one or more people get shot dead cuz 'MURICA!!!!!, 9/11!!!!!!, GUNS!!!!!, NAZIs!!!!!, etc.
I've only ever pulled the emergency alarm once; one of the interconnecting doors between the carriages wasn't shut properly and was flapping open. I tried to close the door myself, but it didn't want to latch shut. Someone could easily have fallen out!
In england it is fast, but in italy one time i was in a train and a lady passed out, the train stopped for 40 minutes, even though the lady was already outside the train in the station, and they announced the problem 20 minutes after it stopped
When I was 3 apparently I pulled the alarm and my mum had to speak to the driver and say that her toddler son had pulled the alarm in front of angry commuters
@@Mongchong_123 exactly… this isn’t Heathrow airport where security is tight… we must never forget tube stations can be easy targets… ie Tokyo subway attack to amongst others…
You can never be to safe but it also worth following HOT in this instance you can’t rule out the O the the H and T present no concern but defo best thing to do is leave it and tell a member of staff if the O was not a issue you could handed it in your self
How do subway workers remove a bag without calling the police? This can be very dangerous because we can never know what's inside it. The passenger was right to trigger the alarm, well done!
O funcionário que recolheu a bolsa falou que estava procurando por ela, então o procedimento provavelmente passou de um "possivel objeto perigoso" para "objeto perdido".
you know he did the right thing when someone left a bag unattended on the Jubilee Line at Dollis Hill Station and the driver comes over and also the staff at Dollis hill station to pick up the unattended bag so well done you did the right thing 👍👍👍🙂🙂🙂
People forgetting their bags must happen at some frequency so they seem to have become a little complacent about it. A little troubling considering the worst case could have been a pressure/motion activated IED etc. I thought they would have cleared the train and platform and called the police.
@@HellHunter00 I suspect that doesn't happen because despite the sound logic, it would paralyse the network. 1 passenger alarm shuts down most of the line until it's resolved because one train can't pass another. A level of risk is accepted for the sake of that practicality, and I guess it seems to be OK so far (I haven't ever heard of a suspicious bag being reported and then poohpoohed, only to turn out to be an IED (and if they were shutting down the whole line for ages for every suspicious bag, attackers wouldn't need to bother with explosives at all to paralyse the city).
I was the driver…. The passenger made the right decision!
Cheers mate!
will the passenger alarm make same sound in the drivers cab?

@@Jackary1232 so how else you’re going to alert the driver?? By the time I ran to the front of the train it would have left the station…

Once as a young child I was on the way to my primary school and left my backpack there by accident, there was nothing really important in there (except a book I enjoyed) but I eventually got a replacement and I hope I didn't cause as much of a fuss as this😅
"This train terminates at *BEEP!"*
Even though the event happened years ago,The bag could very well still be a bomb.
Here in Russia they have an intercom system in every car to tell the driver exactly what's going on. Much more convenient.
This is the first time ive seen someone not hesitate
Thanks for sharing on what to do in case of emergency.
For those of you saying it wasn’t a big enough deal to pull the alarm, this is where you’re wrong. Because anyone could’ve left anything in the bag, it could’ve been a bomb or something. You just never know, and it’s better to be safe than sorry.
So much for the terrorism awareness and all the bullocks to just walk away with a bomb in a backpack just like that.
Nice one avoiding the bystander effect 👍
If you see something, say something. Definitely the right decision.
Well now we know why the trains run late 😂😂
I don't know why that staff would just remove the bag without bringing in BTP officers to assess the threat first, even an innocent looking item could be a bomb.
They knew that a passenger had accidentally left their bag on a train and was looking for it, and the bag matched the description given, so they were satisfied that it was not a threat. If they weren't already aware of the lost bag, they might have treated it differently.
@@Andronk they are trained to identy the basics at least so if the staff are suspicious then they would start the process of of evacuating the train and the platform or the whole station while they wait for police however if they the staff are not suspicious about the bag they they will likley contact btp to double check but they will likely move the bag to a staff area so they can get the train moving again they are trained to makes the service as safe as possible while causing as little disruption as possible
I work at an airport we are trained too keep an eye out for unattended luggage and what to do if we come across any that training sticks with me everywhere I go now in the current climate you can't be too careful
when you think about it, this is a good decision. you may never know if someone has left their bag or if it's something else
Actually I thought this was just a way to know that the alarm works, but then I realised why this was actually a big deal.
This train terminates at baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaap
I never knew lost property was something you could pull the emergency alarm for
I've never seen a London underground with an empty monorail. Looks like heaven for real.
At least you made the right decision. You never know what could've been inside that bag
Thank you
In New York City Subway, we have a emergency brake and a emergency intercom if someone left somethin’ behind, the T/O or Conductor come to pick it up and they prolly take it to the SLAF (subway lost and found)
If you're lucky that's all that happens but mostly likely the storm troopers show up and one or more people get shot dead cuz 'MURICA!!!!!, 9/11!!!!!!, GUNS!!!!!, NAZIs!!!!!, etc.
I've only ever pulled the emergency alarm once; one of the interconnecting doors between the carriages wasn't shut properly and was flapping open. I tried to close the door myself, but it didn't want to latch shut. Someone could easily have fallen out!
You did good!
In england it is fast, but in italy one time i was in a train and a lady passed out, the train stopped for 40 minutes, even though the lady was already outside the train in the station, and they announced the problem 20 minutes after it stopped
Thats mad
For all people who say it's just a bag:
it might have been a bomb
bag be like: no no dont report me pls
human: idc *pulls alarm*
bag: NOOOOOOOOO
Haha 😂
I can’t believe this happened a year ago already, time really is quick 😂😂
Yeah I know!
This train termetmates at- Beep!
When I was 3 apparently I pulled the alarm and my mum had to speak to the driver and say that her toddler son had pulled the alarm in front of angry commuters
Lol
After telling the driver there was a suspicious package, this guy then hangs around to get blown up if was a bomb.... Smart!
Lol yh
Well done for doing the right thing.
This train driver obviously never met an EL-AL security expert 😆
Well done safety first… we have to remember there is no X-rays before entering into a tube station so you did well and the right thing
Thank you! Better to be safe than sorry…
@@Mongchong_123 exactly… this isn’t Heathrow airport where security is tight… we must never forget tube stations can be easy targets… ie Tokyo subway attack to amongst others…
@@Kickflip215 Or the 7/7 London bombings. Man saw something, said something. Everyone needs to be like him.
100% the right thing to do, I would've chosen the slight inconvenience for others over the potential cost of lives
You have to day he's done well there, Clive.
"Is it yours?" - Yeah, I pulled the the emergency thing so I could tell you I put my bag on the floor over there"
Lol
You can never be to safe but it also worth following HOT in this instance you can’t rule out the O the the H and T present no concern but defo best thing to do is leave it and tell a member of staff if the O was not a issue you could handed it in your self
How do subway workers remove a bag without calling the police? This can be very dangerous because we can never know what's inside it. The passenger was right to trigger the alarm, well done!
O funcionário que recolheu a bolsa falou que estava procurando por ela, então o procedimento provavelmente passou de um "possivel objeto perigoso" para "objeto perdido".
Not only that, If it was reported missing they wouldnt really have to be cautious
See it, Say it, Sorted 👍
2005 is a reminder to take things like this seriously.
Good call, mate! 👍
Better to do that, because you never know if there is a bomb or mine in the bag. But if you did that in Switzerland you would get punished
I was the bag…. The passenger made the right decision!
Thanks bag!
you know he did the right thing when someone left a bag unattended on the Jubilee Line at Dollis Hill Station and the driver comes over and also the staff at Dollis hill station to pick up the unattended bag so well done you did the right thing 👍👍👍🙂🙂🙂
Thank you very much 😀😀
No Problem
Nicely done!
Understand the reasoning for no one wanting to touch it. Especially with the incident that happened in the 17 london underground bombing.
You made the correct decision well done 👍
Thank you!
You did the right thing, but I'm amazed at how relaxed the staff were about it.
People forgetting their bags must happen at some frequency so they seem to have become a little complacent about it. A little troubling considering the worst case could have been a pressure/motion activated IED etc. I thought they would have cleared the train and platform and called the police.
@@HellHunter00 I suspect that doesn't happen because despite the sound logic, it would paralyse the network. 1 passenger alarm shuts down most of the line until it's resolved because one train can't pass another. A level of risk is accepted for the sake of that practicality, and I guess it seems to be OK so far (I haven't ever heard of a suspicious bag being reported and then poohpoohed, only to turn out to be an IED (and if they were shutting down the whole line for ages for every suspicious bag, attackers wouldn't need to bother with explosives at all to paralyse the city).
