This is the terrifying moment a schoolboy is thrown onto live railway tracks.
Mobile phone footage uploaded online shows two boys tussling on a station platform in Marrickville, New South Wales, Australia, on Tuesday afternoon.
Suddenly, onlookers gasped as one is hurled onto the rails.
Aware of the potentially fatal situation the boy has put the other in, he lends a helping hand to get him back on the platform – which is refused.
He climbs back onto the side safely.
