At least 20 passersby rally together to move fallen tree in MacPherson, manage to clear 1 lane
Not all heroes wear capes.
On September 18, at least 20 individuals came together to help clear a fallen tree on a road in MacPherson, Singapore. The event was documented by Instagram user @crayoncheryl, who posted a video showing the collective effort to push the tree towards the side of the road while clearing smaller branches. No one was injured, and no vehicles were damaged during the incident, which occurred around 6pm near MacPherson Sheng Hong Child Care Centre.
Initial efforts involved breaking smaller branches, but the group eventually decided to break the main branch and push the tree, successfully clearing one lane of the road in under 15 minutes. Bus drivers informed other buses to navigate around the blocked road, and some vehicles made U-turns to leave the area. Initially, the user thought the situation would lead to a major traffic jam, but the coordinated efforts prevented this.
The National Parks Board (NParks) confirmed they were aware of the incident and that contractors were en route to address the situation.
