Watch This Real Life Superhero Rescue a Fallen Man Off NYC Subway Tracks

ConEd worker Jonathan Kulig, 29, recently channeled his inner superhero when he dove onto the NYC subway tracks at the 3rd Avenue-14th Street L station to rescue a man who had fallen down from the platform.

Kulig, a licensed professional engineer, said he was on his way to work when the commotion started.“I hear people yelling, ‘Oh my God! Oh my God!’ ” he said. So he jumped to action — but not before making sure he knew where he could go if the train was approaching. “I had my escape plan. I knew where to walk, where not to walk,” he said.
