city will spend millions trying to come up with policies and changes to try to stop idiots from doing this again. then you have the money that will be given to this idiot for disability during his lifetime.
Sucks that this kid had to lose an arm, I hope he and his friends learned their lesson, and hopefully any young kids on board will know better as well.
Let me tell you a story. There’s a path above the highway at my airport where people could walk to the terminal. At the end of the path, there’s a gap bewteen the path and terminal sidewalk. To save a couple of seconds (or to look cool), a teenager jumped across the gap. Instead of landing on the sidewalk, he plummeted four stories and splattered right next to me. On the concrete. Screaming. Crying. He died before an ambulance came. TAKE YOUR LIFE SERIOUSLY!
Subway Surfers isn't realistic enough. It needs to have fast moving trains that kill you violently when you make a mistake. Otherwise it gives kids the wrong impression. I grew up playing Halflife where getting run over by a tram is violent.

There was a kid in the grade below me in high school who lost his life doing something similar.

Lol. Be a lesson for other kids that's hilarious. My parents raised me to be smarter than that fortunately. People are so stupid it amazes me constantly.
I lived in a small town for a while and one of the stories everyone knew was how a woman a few years prior tried to walk in front of the train & didn’t make it. It decapitated her. All the kids were still talking about it and no one played around the trains or tracks because of it. Just don’t do stupid things that put your life or health in danger. Easy lesson, hard to learn.
@Smoke King Possibly, but it's also a known problem that trains appear to be further away and travelling slower than they are. That being said, it definitely is a way of offing oneself as well.
@Smoke King By the time you're feeling it, you're already too late to get out of the way. Depending upon where you are, those things can go up to 80mph in the US, and even in populated areas, they're still moving faster than you'd expect.
@@SmallSpoonBrigade no Chris. People know when a train is too close to cross. There is absolutely no mistaking that. As most people have stated, it's not about seeing, it's about feeling. There's no mistaking how close a train is based on feeling. She walked in front of that train on purpose.
I hope his friends that were doing this with him, help him to go on and have a good life after this. I, as a grandma, think what a stupid thing to do, why would you do that? But, as a previous teenager, I have to wonder how my friends and I survived our stupidity!
There’s nothing different about the kids today than about us when we were kids. The difference is the instant and perpetual accessibility to stupidity. When us older kids who didn’t do things _this_ stupid were young, most of us didn’t do them because we weren’t exposed to other kids who were this stupid. The internet opens that up to the whole world, and now where one idiot can ruin a few lives around them, today, one idiot can ruin millions of lives around the world doing the same exact thing that idiots have done since the dawn of the human species. The thing that we haven’t learned culturally (including most adults, to be completely frank) is that “the internet” including social media or other sites that allow general public interaction, are the bad kids our parents warned us about and would keep us away from. Except in our day, there were maybe two or three of those idiots within our whole social world, and there was always a chance they didn’t want to be friends with you. Today, there are millions of those kids, and every single kid alive has access to 100% of those idiots. And don’t think that the same thing isn’t happening across the adult world, too. It is. It just takes a different form. Hardly any of us has _truly_ learned and internalized the lesson that what you find on the internet shouldn’t _ever_ be taken at face value or trusted without independent corroboration and validation. This is why the world is becoming so stupid and depraved today. It’s the lessons that the vast majority of adults (and all kids by the nature of being kids) have not yet learned. Culturally, we are almost all still very immature individuals. It’s hidden more among adults because adults have been around enough and are old enough that the social circles we’ve cultivated for ourselves have been largely functional and socialized enculturated not to be so overtly stupid. But underneath the machinations of all of our intellectual short cuts, we are almost all still just as stupid as this poor kid was.
Do crazy stunts, expect crazy consequences. I don't agree with people saying "we should bring awareness of the dangers of..." No...nature gifts you with the instinct of protecting your life. These teens are ignoring their instinct, not "unaware" of it. You can't fix stupid.
Agreed, yet people will not take responsibility for their own idiotic choices in life it will be someone else's fault. Also, the taxpayers get the pleasure of paying for his disability for the rest of his ignorant life.
You should not need to bring awareness to something so obvious. It is like saying don't toss around live hand grenades. Instead of taking responsibility for his stupidity, his family will probably sue the MTA.
If you lose 60% of your blood, you are destined to die. Luck is when the person survives the immense blood loss. If the boy was brutally bifurcated, he would have died, because he would be losing 100% of his blood.
That’s crazy this happened because I saw a video of a TikTok of 2 14 years olds subway surfing and passenger was pissed and open the door cart and the man screamed at them to get inside and pretty much saved them and gave them a screaming tongue lashing at them for their stupid action. Look at this now. Such a shame.
@@Vap3x yes it is but their their was this one kid who’s page got taken foam and he Would reopen it under new account same video . It’s sad either way when you report to block it it’s gets reposted and gives tithes kids ideals to out do each other
Imagine only living the first 15 years of your life with both arms and when you're old this is the story you tell people why one is missing. Nobody will trust your wisdom
I feel sorry for his family. Now they have to spend years helping him recover because of his stupidity, and they don’t even have the luxury of being upset with him.
More like maybe a year or so. Bethany Hamilton lost her arm in a shark attack and a month later she was back to surfing and now she’s thriving. I know that example isnt under the same circumstances but the point is if he’s determined enough and has a positive mindset he will be alright. He has an opportunity to better himself and possibly even warn other kids of the dangers of doing what he did. Hopefully he and his family are doing as okay as they can be.
What sorrows me a lot is that sadly too much of humanity wants to take unecessary risks. There's nothing to prove, all life is vulnerable...I'm glad that he didn't lose his life. I pray that other youth will now take these actions more seriously. I have seen young people doing this back in the 80s and 90s if I recall correctly. NYC trains are truly powerful machines not to play with.
@@josephkingsford8480 nope, it's cus half of parents this generation don't care then blame it on the kids when they were the ones to lazy to do anything. People often forget who raised the kids in the first place. The people this generation raised by good parents are so nice and sweet . Drugs is also a huge problem where asany of the parents were on drugs. They aren't trying to be cool with their kids they legitimately just don't care
That's the thing, there really isn't a dollar figure that's likely to do it. Anybody doing this is not expecting anything bad to happen. Probably the only thing that could be done is like they do on some of the trains in India with rollers and brushes to try and remove people trying to ride on top from the train. A certain encounter with a roller or similar might actually work rather than a possible fine.
Bruh ; that little kid talking about the older kids subway surfing was way too excited ; he looks like he's one bad friend calling him a P#%%$ away from subway surfing his damn self !
Yo, it sucks since he now needs to finish his teen years and go into adulthood as a disabled person. I wish MTA and this guy's family bring awareness to other young folks who try to surf the subway. Glad no one else got hurt though due to his stupidity
@@kingvidster5637 Very unlikely he would find someone with the same problem. Meanwhile his whole life he will have problems with simple things like brushing his teeth or buttoning a shirt -- all because of his silly foolishness.
now imagine this child is now going to grow up wit only one hand for the rest of his life, man... if he lives to 70 or 8- years old, there's not going to be one day which passes that he wont look back and regret what he did.
Reminds me of when parents used to say, "if your friends jump off a cliff, will you join them???" I actually had to tell some kids to stop playing between the cars on the A train a few months ago, because they thought it was cool to do. There's nothing cool about telling someone's parents that their child got hurt or killed because you guys were being stupid.
People who are arguing that he is "just a kid" are just beyond stupid. He is 15 for crying out loud, he is old enough to have some common sense. He isn't a toddler who needs to be protected every moment. He is old enough to make his own decisions and know the consequences. He got what he deserved. And he should have gotten it worse, imo. Natural selection at its finest.
I get that you're 16 and think you're at the height of your intellect and rational decision making, but no, 15 year old children probably don't deserve to lose limbs for *walking between train cars*
LOL You thought you said something. The beyond stupid one is you if you expect 15 year old children NOT to be immature and to make good life decisions.💀 And this has nothing to do with Natural Selection. Like literally no correlation and a simple google search would've told you that.
bro knew that would be risky as hell trying to collect that jetpack. he has no one to blame but himself, but hes clearly a noob subway surfer. as someone who's highest score is 1334119 i feel sorry for this noob and wish him better luck on getting the fresh skin
I always say you could live for 30 years and it would take away 30 seconds to die the same thing to become disabled. In this life we have to make our choices wisely
I got ran over by a train when I was 14 yrs old and lost my left leg below the knee. Since then I have several times approached kids playing on the tracks and told them my story
I’m genuinely curious, what happened right after the train ran over your leg? Was your leg detached? Where you in severe pain? Did people rush to help?
It's not. The Wire is one of the best TV series ever produced showing those people what not to do, and they still do and do it worst. Bunch of dummies.
Awful for the young man and for the first responders and witnesses. A lot of young people think that they are invincible at their age; in seconds, life is gone or forever changed. Make every young man/woman watch this, and show them the bloody arm.
And then his mother speaks out by saying that she told him “Accidents happen.”, Ma’am, this was no accident, BY A MILE! To call it an accident is a huge stretch when it was clearly done on purpose 😂
I don't. I feel worse for the thousands of people that he inconvenienced. Thousands of folks on their way to their jobs or job interviews... doctors' appointments, hospital visits, picking up their children from school. We all know that blaming the subway is no excuse even under these circumstances. Someone might have lost a shot at a much needed day job because of him. Someone might have had a scared kid waiting for mom on the 1st day of school. Someone (god forbid) might have had a terminally ill loved one in a hospital they missed out on seeing. F--k the kid. His quest for a personal thrill might have cost a struggling single mom her livelihood and ability to feed her innocent kids.
I remember crazy kids doing the exact same thing in the 1970s and 80s. Difference is that it was only ever a handful of kids that dared to do this back then. No social media challenges daring countless numbers of kids than ever before to risk their lives.
Social media clout definitely has made plenty of them do stupid things. As the old man said, they don’t value life quite enough. Some of the stupid things i remember from the news is teens eating the tide pods (led to chemical burns in mouth), setting themselves on fire and immediately jump into shower, and now this...
@@popenieafantome9527 Kids today are told that they are just accidents. God taken out of school, morals are looked down upon, leaders are looked down upon while celebs are looked up to.

Play with fire, you get burned. That is life saying, "I wouldn't do that if I were you."
That's completely on him. If you do shit like that, you can't be upset over losing an arm.
My question is: Why? Just why? It's a TRAIN.
My friend's teen son lost one leg doing exactly the same thing 20 years ago. It's sad. I hope it'd be a lesson for other kids.
I like his new name "peglegged"
Lol. Be a lesson for other kids that's hilarious. My parents raised me to be smarter than that fortunately. People are so stupid it amazes me constantly.
I guess now he needs a leg up in life.. lol
Apparently it’s not enough for a lesson
Guess there's gotta be a refresh every 20 years or so
If you invite death to your door don't be frightened when it starts knocking. Lucky to alive.
Dude took "Subway Surfers" videogame on the next level.
2 minutes ago I didn’t know the word “moronic” existed. Now it’s my favorite word.
I lived in a small town for a while and one of the stories everyone knew was how a woman a few years prior tried to walk in front of the train & didn’t make it. It decapitated her. All the kids were still talking about it and no one played around the trains or tracks because of it. Just don’t do stupid things that put your life or health in danger. Easy lesson, hard to learn.
@Smoke King Possibly, but it's also a known problem that trains appear to be further away and travelling slower than they are. That being said, it definitely is a way of offing oneself as well.
Play stupid games, win stupid prizes
@Smoke King By the time you're feeling it, you're already too late to get out of the way. Depending upon where you are, those things can go up to 80mph in the US, and even in populated areas, they're still moving faster than you'd expect.
Every accident is full of regret.
@@SmallSpoonBrigade no Chris. People know when a train is too close to cross. There is absolutely no mistaking that. As most people have stated, it's not about seeing, it's about feeling. There's no mistaking how close a train is based on feeling. She walked in front of that train on purpose.
I hope his friends that were doing this with him, help him to go on and have a good life after this. I, as a grandma, think what a stupid thing to do, why would you do that? But, as a previous teenager, I have to wonder how my friends and I survived our stupidity!
they have a case of severe attention seeking
If friends encourage you to put your life in danger, those are not good friends.
You never did stuff like this, did you? I never did stuff like this at the age of 15 or ever.
His “friends” won’t want anything to do with him
There’s nothing different about the kids today than about us when we were kids. The difference is the instant and perpetual accessibility to stupidity. When us older kids who didn’t do things _this_ stupid were young, most of us didn’t do them because we weren’t exposed to other kids who were this stupid. The internet opens that up to the whole world, and now where one idiot can ruin a few lives around them, today, one idiot can ruin millions of lives around the world doing the same exact thing that idiots have done since the dawn of the human species.
The thing that we haven’t learned culturally (including most adults, to be completely frank) is that “the internet” including social media or other sites that allow general public interaction, are the bad kids our parents warned us about and would keep us away from. Except in our day, there were maybe two or three of those idiots within our whole social world, and there was always a chance they didn’t want to be friends with you. Today, there are millions of those kids, and every single kid alive has access to 100% of those idiots.
And don’t think that the same thing isn’t happening across the adult world, too. It is. It just takes a different form. Hardly any of us has _truly_ learned and internalized the lesson that what you find on the internet shouldn’t _ever_ be taken at face value or trusted without independent corroboration and validation. This is why the world is becoming so stupid and depraved today. It’s the lessons that the vast majority of adults (and all kids by the nature of being kids) have not yet learned. Culturally, we are almost all still very immature individuals. It’s hidden more among adults because adults have been around enough and are old enough that the social circles we’ve cultivated for ourselves have been largely functional and socialized enculturated not to be so overtly stupid. But underneath the machinations of all of our intellectual short cuts, we are almost all still just as stupid as this poor kid was.
bro played subway surfers in real life 💀
Just because someone tells you to do something, you need to do the right thing and resist the urge to be cool.
Do crazy stunts, expect crazy consequences. I don't agree with people saying "we should bring awareness of the dangers of..." No...nature gifts you with the instinct of protecting your life. These teens are ignoring their instinct, not "unaware" of it. You can't fix stupid.
Exactly!!! And momma always said stupid is as stupid does
natural selection do be at work.
Agreed, yet people will not take responsibility for their own idiotic choices in life it will be someone else's fault. Also, the taxpayers get the pleasure of paying for his disability for the rest of his ignorant life.
You should not need to bring awareness to something so obvious. It is like saying don't toss around live hand grenades. Instead of taking responsibility for his stupidity, his family will probably sue the MTA.
Dumb comment, but most comments are on TH-cam
He’s lucky to be alive
Too bad; now more welfare
@Banned Infinity 🤡
It is not about luck. It is about the blood loss.
If you lose 60% of your blood, you are destined to die. Luck is when the person survives the immense blood loss.
If the boy was brutally bifurcated, he would have died, because he would be losing 100% of his blood.
You can kill me if I loose my arm
You play stupid games, you win stupid prizes. Congrats, kiddo. You lost an arm.
Man took subway surfers to a whole other level. I mean, MAP.
That’s crazy this happened because I saw a video of a TikTok of 2 14 years olds subway surfing and passenger was pissed and open the door cart and the man screamed at them to get inside and pretty much saved them and gave them a screaming tongue lashing at them for their stupid action. Look at this now. Such a shame.
Their tones of videos of these kiss on tic tock on the 7 & R train I would be surprised if these are the same kids
SOOOOOO HAPPY this stupid kids go arm severed. That will show most kids. Don't act foolishly. Your life is not joke!
I just saw that too
@@tdadp There's like A lot of groups so it's different ppl
@@Vap3x yes it is but their their was this one kid who’s page got taken foam and he Would reopen it under new account same video . It’s sad either way when you report to block it it’s gets reposted and gives tithes kids ideals to out do each other
One poor choice can haunt you for the rest of your life
Imagine only living the first 15 years of your life with both arms and when you're old this is the story you tell people why one is missing. Nobody will trust your wisdom
Honestly... No loss, other than making lots of people late to work.
As my mother said, "Children want to die. You have to teach them how to live."
you had a wise mom
@@water5210 His mom is still alive, so he still has a wise mom.
shit i read "you have to teach them how to die" big oof moment
@@kimhornhem5399 His mom would never say something like that! How could you make that mistake???!
@@drServitis some how u know his mom is alive and what ever is going through her mind...
I feel sorry for his family. Now they have to spend years helping him recover because of his stupidity, and they don’t even have the luxury of being upset with him.
The state / taxpayers will probably pick up the tab.
It is an arm. He can still have a fruitful life and career. He can also drive
More like maybe a year or so. Bethany Hamilton lost her arm in a shark attack and a month later she was back to surfing and now she’s thriving. I know that example isnt under the same circumstances but the point is if he’s determined enough and has a positive mindset he will be alright. He has an opportunity to better himself and possibly even warn other kids of the dangers of doing what he did. Hopefully he and his family are doing as okay as they can be.
I like this. It was uplifting & beautiful.
Not being upset with him or disciplining him for 15 years, is most likely what caused this dipshit to think he could pull off this stunt.
The more time someone spends on social media, the more their view of reality gets distorted.
i thought he was playing subway surfers bruhh..
may he recovers soon
Damn that old guy speaking facts! The meaning of life 👍
Yeah, and kids will see him, and dismiss him as just some ole fart...
I would have loved it if he just said, "He fucked around and found out!"
That's right the guy spoke FACTS. That's rego park Queens for ya'll.
@@AZCobraman 😂😂😂
@@AZCobraman 😆😆😆😆
What sorrows me a lot is that sadly too much of humanity wants to take unecessary risks. There's nothing to prove, all life is vulnerable...I'm glad that he didn't lose his life. I pray that other youth will now take these actions more seriously. I have seen young people doing this back in the 80s and 90s if I recall correctly. NYC trains are truly powerful machines not to play with.
SOOOOOO HAPPY this stupid kids go arm servered. That will show most kids. Don't act foolishly. Your life is not joke!
The problem is these kids never got disciplined growing up. Their parents wanted to be their "cool friends" instead of parents.
It’s called Darwinism
@@josephkingsford8480 nope, it's cus half of parents this generation don't care then blame it on the kids when they were the ones to lazy to do anything. People often forget who raised the kids in the first place. The people this generation raised by good parents are so nice and sweet
.
Drugs is also a huge problem where asany of the parents were on drugs. They aren't trying to be cool with their kids they legitimately just don't care
Like my grandfather used to say, "An arm in the bush is not better than two arms on the body."
lmfao that’s probably why half of us New Yorkers in the Brooklyn side were late to school
“…they don’t think it’s gonna happen to them…”
Words to live by…
When you're risking your life, why would anyone think that a $75 fine would be any deterent? 🤔
That's the thing, there really isn't a dollar figure that's likely to do it. Anybody doing this is not expecting anything bad to happen. Probably the only thing that could be done is like they do on some of the trains in India with rollers and brushes to try and remove people trying to ride on top from the train. A certain encounter with a roller or similar might actually work rather than a possible fine.
*subway surfers theme starts playing:*
Attention seeking is a mental issue that needs to be discussed.
Bruh ; that little kid talking about the older kids subway surfing was way too excited ; he looks like he's one bad friend calling him a P#%%$ away from subway surfing his damn self !
You read my mind!!!
This should be put on subway walls to tell people what happens when you do something very dumb.
Valuable lesson, be grateful for both legs, & both arms.
Old man said the truth about teens “ they don’t value life”
When you don’t discipline your kids they don’t think anything has any consequences
Neither do a lot of adults
True but also probably they saw some video saying if you do this you’ll be cool
we live to die so might as well have as much fun
Yo, it sucks since he now needs to finish his teen years and go into adulthood as a disabled person. I wish MTA and this guy's family bring awareness to other young folks who try to surf the subway.
Glad no one else got hurt though due to his stupidity
Well if they haven't payed attention before I pray they do now.
Well at least if he apply for ssi he'll get approved
Imaging trying to make that rent on a fixed income
Can't fix stupidity. He got what he deserved. Play stupid games, win stupid prizes
@@AriessunvirgomoonlightLibraise no they won't. They morons 🙄 😒 this has happened before and this idiots keep doing it
This is one of the reasons why having a metal arm like Winter Soldier comes in handy.
Play stupid games, win stupid prizes.
man, I see that kid smile when he talks about those people riding the train. I hope he doesn't look up to them.
Imagine him as an adult explaining what happened to his arm
Imagine him wanting to play sports or date pretty girls - and losing out due to his missing arm. Very sad.
@@cathynewyork7918 It's rude saying he can't get girls. It's not like he is disfigured and disgusting.
@@kingvidster5637 Being disabled will be a problem with dating.
@@cathynewyork7918 He can always date someone with the same problem
@@kingvidster5637 Very unlikely he would find someone with the same problem. Meanwhile his whole life he will have problems with simple things like brushing his teeth or buttoning a shirt -- all because of his silly foolishness.
"Your honor, my client was simply gaming"
now imagine this child is now going to grow up wit only one hand for the rest of his life, man... if he lives to 70 or 8- years old, there's not going to be one day which passes that he wont look back and regret what he did.
damn... that kid learned a lesson in a very painful way and he has a reminder of it everyday. he has no one to blame but himself.
Reminds me of when parents used to say, "if your friends jump off a cliff, will you join them???" I actually had to tell some kids to stop playing between the cars on the A train a few months ago, because they thought it was cool to do. There's nothing cool about telling someone's parents that their child got hurt or killed because you guys were being stupid.
$75 fine? I just can't believe the surfing didn't stop immediately after this fine was implemented.
Just imagine feeling a quick, sharp pain and looking down and realizing your arm is gone 😳.
A $75 fine is supposed to discourage that level of stupidity?
People who are arguing that he is "just a kid" are just beyond stupid. He is 15 for crying out loud, he is old enough to have some common sense. He isn't a toddler who needs to be protected every moment. He is old enough to make his own decisions and know the consequences. He got what he deserved. And he should have gotten it worse, imo. Natural selection at its finest.
Yes, and unfortunately at that age, the peer group often times is more important to the kids than the adults are.
@@SmallSpoonBrigade Succumbed to peer groups that's obviously risking your life? That's just moronic. There's no excuse for this kind of stuff
I get that you're 16 and think you're at the height of your intellect and rational decision making, but no, 15 year old children probably don't deserve to lose limbs for *walking between train cars*
LOL You thought you said something. The beyond stupid one is you if you expect 15 year old children NOT to be immature and to make good life decisions.💀 And this has nothing to do with Natural Selection. Like literally no correlation and a simple google search would've told you that.
Yeah a 15 year old Is not that smart
bro knew that would be risky as hell trying to collect that jetpack. he has no one to blame but himself, but hes clearly a noob subway surfer. as someone who's highest score is 1334119 i feel sorry for this noob and wish him better luck on getting the fresh skin
A $75 dollar fine??? For doing something that could quite easily kill someone????
Kid they interviewed is smiling like he's thinking about trying it out for himself.
I always say you could live for 30 years and it would take away 30 seconds to die the same thing to become disabled. In this life we have to make our choices wisely
Bruh imagine losing your arm to a train and saying that you were "Subway surfing"
WTF are they thinking climbing a moving subway? Maybe I’m out of touch but he made his bed so sleep in it. With one arm.
I got ran over by a train when I was 14 yrs old and lost my left leg below the knee. Since then I have several times approached kids playing on the tracks and told them my story
Did it hurted
I’m genuinely curious, what happened right after the train ran over your leg? Was your leg detached? Where you in severe pain? Did people rush to help?
@@Chomusuke1 obviously it would have hurt
"I don't wanna buy a ticket that sh#t cost an arm and a leg "lol
When stupidity and ignorance collides.
$75 fine? That ain’t deterring nobody
I pray for his speedy recovery and that this experience teaches others.
It's not. The Wire is one of the best TV series ever produced showing those people what not to do, and they still do and do it worst. Bunch of dummies.
I’m sure his arm will grow back really fast 🤣
@@Dutchfalco Once it grows back he'll be ready for Round 2.
Lmao, nah he needs to get back up and try it again.
Awful for the young man and for the first responders and witnesses. A lot of young people think that they are invincible at their age; in seconds, life is gone or forever changed. Make every young man/woman watch this, and show them the bloody arm.
truth is at that age they are largely invincible. it takes a split sec of distraction.
What a bad way to learn a lesson
The 15 yrs old is in stable condition, but his life will for forever changed. Because now he has to learn to do thing with ONE ARM.

Glad he didn't pay the ultimate price, but it's still a steep one for teenage stupidity. Hopefully, he and the other could learn something from this.
Good for his dumb ass they need to have common sense.
And then his mother speaks out by saying that she told him “Accidents happen.”, Ma’am, this was no accident, BY A MILE! To call it an accident is a huge stretch when it was clearly done on purpose 😂
He got exactly what he was looking for. No sympathy here.
He officially has the highest score on IRL subway surfers
Yes I was waiting for a comment like this
😂😂
Oh my god. You can’t get any more foolish. I feel terrible for him but this was beyond foolish.
The old guy that spoke said it perfectly.
YES STUPID!!!!!!!
I don't. I feel worse for the thousands of people that he inconvenienced. Thousands of folks on their way to their jobs or job interviews... doctors' appointments, hospital visits, picking up their children from school. We all know that blaming the subway is no excuse even under these circumstances. Someone might have lost a shot at a much needed day job because of him. Someone might have had a scared kid waiting for mom on the 1st day of school. Someone (god forbid) might have had a terminally ill loved one in a hospital they missed out on seeing. F--k the kid. His quest for a personal thrill might have cost a struggling single mom her livelihood and ability to feed her innocent kids.

I remember crazy kids doing the exact same thing in the 1970s and 80s. Difference is that it was only ever a handful of kids that dared to do this back then. No social media challenges daring countless numbers of kids than ever before to risk their lives.
Social media clout definitely has made plenty of them do stupid things. As the old man said, they don’t value life quite enough. Some of the stupid things i remember from the news is teens eating the tide pods (led to chemical burns in mouth), setting themselves on fire and immediately jump into shower, and now this...
@@popenieafantome9527 Kids today are told that they are just accidents. God taken out of school, morals are looked down upon, leaders are looked down upon while celebs are looked up to.
Saw an 12 year old got shot in the back of the head by a 14 year old relative, then the 14 year old either killed herself afterwards with the gun or misused of the gun and accidentally fatally shooting herself.
The 12 year old boy was playing with a extended mag handgun for their Instagram account for quite awhile due to the amount of post before the tragic incident happened, and yet no one stopped or notice that boy for having a live fucking gun?!
