Anthony says that when a stranger fell onto an electrified railroad track, no one else on the platform made a move to help, so he did.

The Chicago resident says he thought to himself, “I’ve got to do something, even if it means putting myself at risk.”

Watch Anthony’s act of heroism in the video above. And later, Dr. Phil talks to another man who was so moved by what Anthony did that he made it his mission to reward Anthony for his selfless act.
