God protects idiots. If the train was 5 seconds late this guy would have been like a bug on the windshield.
Or this was Patrick Swayze practicing. In that case he was dead already anyways.
And it looks like he was wearing a helmet. Now it will be proposed that anyone entering the subway has to wear a helmet. I believe that the invention of helmets caused most of the problems that we have today.
No helmet, that was his head and collar that created the illusion of a helmet. It almost seemed like the person was a female, either that or a guy with a fur collar? Too bad the video was such poor quality.
You’re right, looking at it again it’s clear that the person is using their face to protect their brain only. I guess that’s why single witnesses can be unreliable. There is no helmet. There is no spoon. So I guess he doesn’t work for a safety testing laboratory either.
The other thing that I originally thought was that the person was on their toes and falling forward. So 5sec in that aspect would have made a difference of whether he went to a mental health clinic or the morgue in several pieces.
It kind of reminds of that new ad campaign for some state, “Meth, I’m on it”.
“Meth, we’re on it” – South Dakota
You’re right too. I made another mistake. I guess I was thinking of the person who thought up the ad. And surely he had a committee agreeing that this was the best option when looking for a slogan. So “we’re on it” makes perfect sense,….to them.
Guy? I though it was a gal.
Could be she was identifying as Superman today. That’s what I saw in front of that speeding train, a man. If the underwear is blue that could be proof positive that it was Super-man today. Pink underwear, it was Wonder Woman. So after this they can also identify as The Mummy, but with a catheter.
Nowadays people could end up in a lot of strange situations if they don’t ever look down in the morning. Seriously, a person could get their tit caught in a chainsaw.
This person is going to end up rich. They’re going to sue everyone one on that platform who were just looking and for not stopping them/him/her.
Sure, as soon as she passes the mental competency test, if she’s alive.
I knew a woman whose child’s head was flat and the baby had to be fitted with a helmet she wore until she was two-ish. It was better than being flat, but her head looked like a bowling ball until her hair grew out. She was born to a couple who should not have had children, but did.
And you may wonder what the hell that has to do with what you said…
Well, it does.
Helmets, seat belts, etc. They are “taking” of property because one’s personal space should be a person’s to dictate. To demand the wearing of an item for safety is the first excuse to demand the wearing of a tattoo for identification.
The child received a special SSI award from those early years… probably still has that award as an adult. (They were church acquaintances/projects for the Ladies Betterment League.)
Obviously mind the gap
The gap between the ears.
Is there anything more delightful than a lightly experienced TBPer feeling somewhat bold after a few posts……getting a reality check from the vicious predators we have lurking around here! Those that survive this trial by keyboard may advance to cognoscenti. Pro Tip…..think carefully before you type and be prepared to defend your views with facts and audacity.
That’s gonna leave a mark.
The pony tail prevents me from feeling any compassion for this tool.
It’s a joy to see someone suddenly understand the laws of physics that had eluded them all of their life.
Methinks the lad departed this life…being hit by a moving train tends to do that….
Rule #1 – Never challenge a train, it wins every time.
that is a gene pool that needs to be restricted if there is indeed recovery
Somewhere in my archives I have a video of a former (idiot) employee who after clocking out at work sprinted across the street so as to be the first one out of the parking lot. He sprinted right in front of an old lady, who hit him at around 35 miles an hour.
The impact launched him about 15-20 yards. It was all caught on our security cameras, including the sprint and the launch into orbit. He survived, with brain injuries and some broken bones.
The lady was a wreck, sitting alongside the road. The cops showed up, looking at maybe charging her. I took them into the office and showed them the video, and made them a copy. They just shook their heads and said something to the effect as to what an idiot he was. That was the last time we ever saw that dumbass. He was around 20 years old. Some folks can only learn by experience.
Newbies need to keep that in min.
llpoh,
a truly decent and enlightened,progressive employer would have paid his med bills along w/a continuation of his salary until he recovered or reached normal retirement age,whichever came first–
which of course is why we need obamacare & strong worker protection laws b/c phuking capitalist pigs like yourself won’t provide those necessities w/o it being mandated by elected officials who care 4 workers–
go warren–
I sent the bastard a bill for my pain and suffering. I mean, having to look at that video damaged me – I am not the same, sweet, gentle soul I was before seeing that gruesome stuff. If he does not cough up soon, I am gonna sue.
Trying to guide noobs here is indeed a thankless job. Can you believe one noob actually told me – “You’re mean.” Can you imagine how that affected my self esteem? How do you guys do it?
ec,
that’s a good song choice,and nick lowe is there w/his then wife,one of the most talented women in any genre of the music biz–
does your salvi princess keep up w/news from back home?el salvador elected a leftist muslim as their president–
I went to ask her, she knows. She is always on top of the news. Several months before it was reported here in the states, she told me about a plane that went missing in the Indian ocean. People think I’m mean, they don’t live with the sexy mulatta – one false move could be your last. I said, I heard he’s a muslim. She said no, his father is. Well, he’s a liberal. Eyes narrow, her ears fold back. What’s that? I don’t know, conservative presidents kill priests. And what do liberals do? I’m sweating, I guess they are like Chavez – they’ll kill him soon enough. I leave quickly.
the dad & brother are both imams,he claims to be catholic but he’s been seen going into mosques in mayheco ciudad,who knows–
He’s muslim, especially if Daddy is. NO muslim leaves the fold alive…
Your lucky. Pre 2012 you would have been paying his NSW worker’s comp and it wouldn’t have mattered shit if it was his fault. Covered journey to and fro. Thank fuck they got rid of that shit.
Was that Solutions Are Obvious???
Ouch! Frigging idiot.
“Ride,ride,ride……..hitchin a ride”
This is the 10% of the population that is stealing air from the rest of us……
Hey, I resemble that man.
