14-year-old Oliver was left abandoned on the platform at Altrincham Metrolink interchange having collapsed
A mother has criticised ‘selfish’ commuters for failing to help her teenage son after he collapsed on a packed tram platform.
Oliver Tiplady was on his way to school when he fainted and banged his head at the tram stop.
But instead of helping the 14-year-old, who was in school uniform and clutching a satchel, those nearby simply walked around him.
Last night, his family said that they were horrified by the selfishness and uncaring attitude of rush-hour commuters.
Oliver’s mother, Susan Tiplady, 53, a retired teacher, said: ‘This walk-on-by society has got to stop and think for once in their lives.
‘How can people justify leaving a child, or anybody for that matter, on the floor like that? There would have been so many people that walked past him at 8.15am.
‘How could they all have ignored him? They must have lacked any basic humanity and had no compassion towards a child. I imagine a lot of the people who walked past would have been mothers or fathers – how would they feel if it was their child left like that?
‘These days people are too insular and only care about their own business. I can possibly understand if it was a drunk hoodie but he’s a 14-year-old boy in his school uniform. Oliver has been left devastated.’
Hundreds of commuters boarded the 8.15am morning tram and left Oliver on the ground with some even stepping over him
Mrs Tiplady, who lives with husband
Gary, 48, a manager at Manchester Airport, said her son regained
consciousness about ten minutes after fainting at the Altrincham
Metrolink Interchange in Greater Manchester last week.
‘Oliver told me that he felt dizzy and the next thing he fell and
banged his head on the concrete – but they all just walked past him as
if nothing had happened,’ she added.
‘He managed to get up and sit down before his friends turned up, but by
then he was too embarrassed to tell them what had happened. It wasn’t
until he got to school that he told a teacher.’
Oliver’s mum and dad, Susan and Gary have reported that their son has been left devastated by the incident
She said Oliver has suffered unexplained seizures in the past.
A spokesman for the Metrolink tram system said that there were emergency
help buttons at all stops, adding: ‘If there are staff on hand then
they will always be there to help.’

Something similar happened when my ex father-in-law was stung by a bee and collapsed in the shopping precinct from anaphylactic shock. People just walked past and left dying. If it hadn’t been for one woman who checked on him, my daughters would be without their grandad. Too many people prefer to walk by.

I am disabled and on a recent journey to London, I misjudged the step when getting out the train and literally fell out of the train onto the platform. People getting off all ignored me and stepped over me. Luckily the train driver saw what happened in his mirror, got out of his cab, ran down the platform and helped me. I was a bit weepy not so much from the pain of the fall but I felt so humiliated at being left on the ground by commuters who choose to ignore me, I felt worthless. I’ll never forget the kindness of the train driver.

Whatever happened to good old fashioned concern about your fellow human beings. Treating others how you would like to be treated yourself? Shame on the people who walked on by – we seem to be breeding a whole lot of people with no compassion and no conscience. Oliver, honey not all of us are like that.

“what’s even more selfish is a woman having kids knocking on 40…and the poor child in his teenage life having people thinking she’s his grandmother and not his mother!
– kathy, kent, 13/2/2012 8:39” – what a totally breathtaking piece of arrogance! My mother was 42 when I was born and was the most wonderful, caring mother with all the maturity that her years brought. Never once did anyone think she was my Grandmother and she lived until she was 96, so I wasn’t orphaned at an early age. Methinks you must come from a family of teenage mothers if you think that you should be a grandmother by the time you are 40!!!

The world we live in now just just the most awful selfish place to live. I know of Drs and Nurses who would not helped a collapsed person in the street because of the fear of getting sued. Obviously now we have got to a point where there is a price for a human life. Utterly disgraceful
