BALLROOM dancer Crystal Main yesterday told how she survived one of the attacks - shielded from the blast by other passengers.
The 23-year-old was visiting the capital to attend a dance rehearsal workshop with her dance partner Bruce Lait, 32. They arrived at Liverpool Street station shortly before 9am on Thursday and were on a Circle Line Tube train when a massive explosion tore through their packed carriage.
Crystal, of Claydon, near Ipswich, Suffolk, said: "I sat next to the double doors where the glass panel was. Bruce was beside me on the left. A lady was standing in the middle of the carriage holding the pole and two older ladies were opposite me.
"I was really tired. I had my eyes closed for about 20 seconds and all of a sudden I felt as if I have having a fit and couldn't control myself. I slipped to the side. It was as if I had been electrocuted and thousands of volts were going through me. (my emphasis)
