Is to show what happened. But you're right - it could be a disturbing photo, so I've taken it off the home page and you now have to click a link to see it.
I don't particularly care if it's left up or removed, but I just don't see what it adds to the story at all. Granted I have an irrational fear of being pushed onto train tracks exacerbated by those NYC subway situations, I was just pointing out that it's not the best thing to come across on this site.
With the circumstances being that the gentleman was not seriously injured, the picture definitely adds to the story; it shows how closely he escaped disaster. I think it could even be a little comforting to someone who is afraid of the subway to know that the worst possible outcomes don't always happen.
I was one of those guys today before 1 pm. Am I on crack, or is this story about another incident? This picture certainly doesn't reflect wht happened today!
