User Posted July 4, 2012 Share #5 Posted July 4, 2012 While that was terrible to watch, the guy could have been homeless and that's one less guy to ask me for spare change. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
JubaionBx12+SBS Posted July 4, 2012 Share #6 Posted July 4, 2012 I get the thought that this man was drunk. Very tragic for sure. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KeystoneRegional Posted July 4, 2012 Share #7 Posted July 4, 2012 Despite all of this. I still think the passengers isn't tough enough, and from looking at videos from other cities and their transit system, these passenger here doesn't have a gut. It's really u nfortunate that these people don't have the guts to pull that man up and restrain him, if I had to do it, I would've done it but require few other men to push this guy up to the platform and lay on top of him...

SoSpectacular Posted July 4, 2012 Share #16 Posted July 4, 2012 clip saved. Oh well is right.... No sympathy for him whatsoever. I actually started laughing when that woman started whimpering when the smoke appeared..... It's a suicide, I've seen much worse though. Guy in India, standing on a train, refuses to get off, but in his stupidity grabs one of the overhead wires for support and gets ZAPPED! Flames shot out that guy's head! Brown skinned to charred in two seconds! Damn I'll never forget THAT!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Grand Concourse Posted July 4, 2012 Share #17 Posted July 4, 2012 I gotta say, it is shocking (pun intended) seeing a death captured on camera. Very chilling, even to me who's seen practically most of the stuff on rotten.com. But that said: I wonder if the person that took it and uploaded it to yt, still has his/her account?

Cait Sith Posted July 4, 2012 Share #18 Posted July 4, 2012 -EDIT- Didn't read the entire article correctly. Well, another one goes up in smoke(too soon?)....I'm a person who has sympathy for those who got killed in an accident or whatever, but when it comes to someone being shitfaced or high like a G6.....they asked for it. What a shocking way to go! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
alejr88 Posted July 4, 2012 Share #19 Posted July 4, 2012 Damn, never thought I will see something like that. Also in the video, do they really don't know what is a third rail? Idiots... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
B3 Via Av U Posted July 4, 2012 Share #20 Posted July 4, 2012 Oh good god... My fingers were on the "Ctrl" and "W" buttons the whole video, I closed it when the guy hit the 3rd rail... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
trainfan22 Posted July 4, 2012 Share #21 Posted July 4, 2012 I Feel sympathy for the guy that got zapped. Lousy way to go. But I was at the females "crying" though. A female probably driven him to that messed up state of mind he was in prior to getting zapped. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
QM1to6Ave Posted July 4, 2012 Share #22 Posted July 4, 2012 Despite all of this.

It's really u nfortunate that these people don't have the guts to pull that man up and restrain him, if I had to do it, I would've done it but require few other men to push this guy up to the platform and lay on top of him... First of all, if you notice, there is a woman that tries to pull him up. However, in this case, it is actually a pretty stupid idea. If you are pulling the guy up so he is off the ground, and his bare foot touches the third rail, guess what--you are grounded to the platform, and now you all get zapped. Even if 3 or 4 guys are pulling him, so the overall voltage gets spread out a little, 600 volts will probably kill all of you, or at least severely burn the arms of everyone pulling him.

GojiMet86 Posted July 4, 2012 Share #24 Posted July 4, 2012 I'm a lot more horrified to the reaction people have to the guy's death than to the guy's actual electricution. I didn't think that people would have pleasure from seeing a guy with problems suffering like that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
