Ok so last night-this morning approximatley 12:20 in the morning after getting the tram from salfrod quays to Piccadilly gardens after spending few hours with fen and ska and briefly annoying loui and watching the new x men movie with Ari, myself and Ari returned back to manchester piccadilly so i can drop him off for his train home. But our tram couldnt go into station at picadilly station so ended up depoting at piccadilly gardens. So said my goodbye to the squeeky wolf.
This is where it gets graphic, if ur easily offended please skip
I said goodbye to Ari, and he went one way to piccadilly station, i went the opposite direction towards shudehill and so crossed the opposite end of the platform and had to cut across piccadilly gardens to get to my bus station
(for those unsure of manchester geography piccadillys gardens, one of those centre plazas, with huuggeee grassy area, high street shops and a bus terminal and tram station with it being the centre of manchester)
So i left the platform, and walked to ground level, literally about five yards from the platform and saw a tram heading towards the station (literaally distance wise two bus lenghts) so with the speed it was going , i waited bye the tracks for it to pass, so i would cross once its gone. and being midnight in manchester it was full of clubbers and ravers and those coming home from night out. then literally as the tram was say (distance of a lenght of average family car) i looked across the direct opposite the railway track.
Some guy with white shirt and grey hat, literally held his arm out as if tried to hail a cab and ran across with it coming with the tram coming ino my vision and within seconds, it just slammed into him chestwise and for second or two watching this guy fo from being planted to the front, to going under and disapeering and the tram stopping two thee yards further on (im not gonna describe the sounds).
Now within seconds of stopping the tram driver rushed out and looked under the tram, and few more seconds later the paramedics came screeching round corner and i had to leave and went towards my bus station (i know some will go GOO WTF why did u leaveee) Well this where my mind went arse up after i left and felt violenty sick and shaking (assuming shock)
now im no genius this where my mind plays the what ifs, shoul doffs , could offs. but watching a guy go under a tram right in front o fyou, you automatically assume, decapitation or death, hell he could came way perfectly fine after i walked off. but still..was shaken up, now after sleep not as bad, but still min dis WTF.
I spoke to family this morning and gave contact details to local authority upon advice of my father so if they need a witness, i woould be best one they have bar three drunken women in hysterics.
