The article said nothing about drug use. You know what they say about people who assume.

watch the video and tell me this guy wasnt under the influence of a substance.

VigorouslySwish posted...
he was black so a lot of republicans just assume

guy wasnt black.

this is NYC at 6:30AM. Ive seen people jerking off at this time of the day, out in the open. Ive seen people many times openly inject heroin or smoke literal crack on the streets in broad day light.

and while you may say it isnt right to demonize or vilify someone under the influence, hardcore narcotics usually lead to poor decision making and reduce reaction and spacial awareness. This was a result of such.

What precautions could the city take within reason to prevent further injury of a similar nature, if any?
they could just make more of these

Damn I'm always jumping over shit. Hope I don't go out like that.

RiP.

There's been quite a few performing backflips and shit and they've been doing it regularly. But it only takes one slip to land on your neck and die.

This is why I'll never try to learn to do backflips and somersaults.

Nobody gonna complain about the strain on taxpayer dollars or the possibility that fare is increased further if the city decides to implement more of those larger turnstiles, as @inTaCtfuL brought to the table so geniusly?

That sucks. It's a morbid video and a fucked up accident and it's easy to forget this guy has family and friends who'd be grieving right now.

Those would bottleneck people during rush hour. They are super slow compared to turnstiles. There is a good reason why those are uncommon.

As someone living in NYC, jumping a turnstile is a pretty common thing. This was obviously a freak accident, but I wouldn't say he was doing anything out of the ordinary. This is akin to tripping while walking and then dying.

The whole thing is unsustainable anyway. May as well stop pretending that fares actually pay for it.

The problem is not skipping the fare. It is the abuse of whatever substance that person was in. But mah freedom!

All the more reason he shouldn't have been doing stuff like this, but no he cared more about getting wasted and running around in public doing petty crimes than his own kid.

The video's not graphic. It cuts off a few second or so before anything mind-scarring could be seen.

What it does show is that this guy, instead of going over the turnstile one leg at a time, like any normal law-breaking person would, first seemed to ram the turnstile, then tried to vault over it.
And by vault, I mean lift himself with both arms and pushing himself against the trunstile while his legs hang limp.
Dude must've been high as a kite.

It shouldn't. We are always close to death doing some everyday activities than some of us care to admit. Should humble some people and make them appreciate their lives more, but they don't.

He looks kinda drunk really. It's not a typical jump over the turnstile. He kinda runs into it first, then seem sconfused as to why it's not letting him in.

THEN he tries to jump it.
