Dad saved daughter from an oncoming train, covering his body

Ambiguous reaction was caused by the incident in Egypt where the father saved the girl, covering her body when she fell on the way.

A terrible incident occurred in the city of Ismailia, on one of the railway stations. As reported by witnesses, the girl fell on the road, and the father jumped in after her, covering her with his body. The video, which was filmed by one of the witnesses to the incident, is seen as the man jumps in the way and uses the body as a human shield to save his daughter from an oncoming train.

Al Ebrahim, one of the witnesses said that the girl was caught off guard by the signal of a freight train and she fell on the way.

«At that moment, her father decided to sacrifice himself to save her. He jumped [from the platform], ignoring the cries of the people who asked him to come back, because the train was approaching. We continued to pray to God for their lives, while fear almost stopped our hearts.» added Ebrahim.

However, not everyone thinks dad hero: the station master Ashraf Abdul Hamid called the father of «irresponsible dad», because he did not use the pedestrian tunnel to transfer to the other side.

«The train started, when a man and his daughter were crossing the road» — said the head of the station. «The man was able to jump onto the platform, leaving his daughter behind.»

Hamid added that people are unfairly called him «the father of a superhero. The chief of the station said that it «irresponsible father.»
