That is something nobody should have to be exposed to...as a witness or through loss of a loved one...
Seen it myself in London when I was 16 at Kings Cross Tube, wasn't near the person or see the mess, but near enough to see him jump, the most sickening thing I have ever seen, and I aint ever heard screaming like it and I have never ran away from anything so fast, Usain Bolt would have struggled to catch me over 100mtrs, add my own mental health problems to it and it really screwed me up, so much so, I hate London to this day and would not use the Tube again years, I even got paranoid in Newcastles Underground Metro Stations.
Back in 2000, a friend of mine was struck by a train after taking a shortcut over the ECML just west of Durham, on the same weekend as me turning 18
