MELBOURNE, Australia (KGO) -- In Melbourne, Australia, a woman bent down to pick up an object on a train platform but the stroller she was pushing kept going and landed on the tracks.

The woman frantically jumped onto the tracks to rescue the child inside.

The baby escaped the fall with only minor injuries and, fortunately, no train was coming in that direction.

One bystander who jumped into the tracks to help said he'd do it again in a heartbeat.
