A 21-year-old woman is hoping to find the man who saved her life after she fell onto the tracks at a London Underground station.
Per ITV News, Tegan Badham was on her way to Wireless Festival in Finsbury Park when she tripped over and landed on the tracks at King's Cross St Pancras station.
Having suffered an electric shock, the young woman from Cwmbran, Wales, struggled to move. Fortunately, one heroic man whom she didn't know immediately pulled her back onto the platform - moments before the train arrived at the spot where she had been when she fell.
Tegan was soon taken to the emergency department at a local hospital, having sustained burns on her back, legs and arms, and what was believed to be a fracture.
According to her, had it not been for the rubber-soled boots she had on at the time, she could have been killed by the voltage from the live track. She also said she would have been dead had it not been for the unnamed man who saved her.
Tegan told ITV News: "I was at the beginning of the track, so as soon as that train came around that corner, that was it then, I was going to be gone. If he wasn't there, I genuinely would be dead.
"People were saying to me, 'We thought we were going to be collecting your body,' and it all hit me then and then I said, 'Oh my god, I'm literally supposed to be dead right now.'"
Now Tegan is searching for the man who rescued her as she wants to be able to thank him personally.
She said: I want to meet up with him. I want to do that face-to-face because that's not something you can do over the phone, is it? I'm thanking him for my life. He needs a cwtch!"
Tegan described the man as potentially being in his 30s, having worn casual clothing and having mousy-brown hair.
She continued: "He wanted to stay with me, he didn’t want to leave me, but all his mates were like: 'Come on, we need to get on a train, we need to go, we need to go.' So I don't know where he was going. There’s so many things in London that he could be there for."
