This man couldn't have been helped. No way would I be grabbing hold of a man who's that close to the 3rd rail...needless to say, I wouldn't be going over to pull him off once he'd turned himself into a human light bulb.

Good samaritan help stops short when my life is put in danger by a drunken idiot.

drunk + dead = dead3
 Quoting: -GooGooFlexy-


They call people like you cowards, who die in retirement homes because their children abandoned them, and then we see cowards like you going to shopping malls and annoying people because you have no one to talk to, because you know, you are a coward and no one wants to be around cowards, not even your own offspring.

Just pray to god that your children one day doesn't follow the culture of binge drinking and end up in the same mess, don't worry, I won't be making fun of your children's death, because I'm not a coward, if I see your children in the same situation, I would risk my life helping them.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 19230917


Have fun, you'd be dead just like him if you tried to touch him.

Falling on to electrified tracks while drunk, falling off of a high building while drunk, or crashing a car while drunk, it was a very bad day for all who had to witness it and for those who had to clean up the mess. The man was totally responsible and paid the ultimate price for his actions. What would have been more sad is if others had died trying to rescue him.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 15651884


How can a senseless man be responsible for his actions? If you're extremely intoxicated you're not fully conscious, it is like sleep walking, how can you claim you're responsible for that?

Alcoholism is regarded as a sickness, a mental disorder, a sick man is not responsible for his actions. When someone is mentally ill, then the court usually sends him for treatment, and not to prison. Then again, I don't know how the law works in USA.

The man was clearly not in his senses, right?
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 19230917


It doesn't even matter, because all of our lives are sacred and worth protecting. He may have been drunk, drugged, insane(most homeless are), ill, retarded, or any number of things, but that is a mute point. The fact of the matter is, that he was leaning against the platform initally,well over 12 to 15 feet away from the 3rd rail and could have been easily lifted up by a couple of the chimps that decided to just leave him there for fotter. Of course once he stumbled off onto the tracks it was too late, but the situation was certainly avoidable. The imbecile onlookers could leave me blogging all day over their retarded comments, so I will just leave it alone.

I'm ABSOLUTELY criticizing that woman. She likely has a family and kids she needs to worry more about than this ignora-moose. And stop using the "what if it was your son" argument. Typical bleeding heart logic.
It wasn't my son...it was an idiot.

And I'm glad that he snuffed himself. That way, he'll be unable to procreate. Does that sound too harsh to you? Well, that simple law of nature contributed to all of the favorable attributes in your human body. If you're too stupid to keep yourself from dying in this manner, you don't deserve to pass your genetic material along.

Stop trying to make me feel bad for this man. I don't. Those of us who stay well away from danger such as this will continue to find ways to survive, fuck, and reproduce. You'll be the one continuously trying to ensure the survival of those who don't deserve it at the potential cost of your own demise.

:havefun:
 Quoting: -GooGooFlexy-


Like I said, if you are a coward, don't criticize others for not being a coward like you.

You can't even answer a simple question, obviously in denial, would you help your own child in the same situation?

From what I read, you wouldn't even help your own child, it just goes to show how far a coward would go to justify his cowardice mentality.

I was electrocuted to death
it was great, but rather sad
being dead was fun, didn't have a clue what happened during or after, when they asked me how i died, I couldn't tell them, even on a return trip a year or so later, still didn't know, and I didn't even realize that it had happened before.

Now coming back and living amongst my good friends and neighbours, brothers and sisters, and lovely people all around the world, that really sucked.

your not like people from Heaven, not even like people in purgatory. You suck, you have no good redeeming qualities. Even Hell had better people than most of you.

Our tube stations are slowly (too slowly) being converted to have suicide doors... I'm sure that isn't the correct term for them but it's a glass wall with doors that ONLY open after the doors on a train open :o)

One, that isn't going to help. Two, Britain has the worst electrical system in the world with its wonderful loop system, there are plenty of nice ways to kill yourself there by electrocution really easily. Three, there already have been accidents with these doors malfunctioning or people getting sandwiched between the door and train. And you don't really need to be superman to force these doors open (They have no interlocking system to prevent movement when closed and there's no interlock between the door and the train) and eventually annoying maintenance issues will arise which always tends to be ignored or bypassed.

Not ONE of those stupid fucking witnesses went to the power cutoff button, tried the help intercom, or went up to the ticket booths to have someone cut the power?

FUCKING IDIOTS.

Go ahead and say he was drunk/homeless/crazy/whatthefuckever. The point still remains there's a goddamn body on the tracks and shit needs to be shut down.

There's nothing I hate more than useless little shits who just stand around and scream.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 1044523


..and film.

they are all guilty of murder any one of those persons on the platform could have hit the emergency power cut off as soon as the obviously intoxicated/mentally ill guy was on the the tracks.

i say try them for murder.

teach you all to be a bit smarter.

there was no accident about this.

it could have been avoided.
 Quoting: Anonymous Coward 19104260


These comments make me very sad. Look how much people assume.

To ME, this didn't look at all like a guy who was simply drunk. He looked like he had been homeless for some time (judging by his attire).

Maybe he lived down there like many do.

I know the tunnels under the casinos in Vegas are PACKED with homeless.

As for the people on the platform not doing more, what if they didn't know what to do?

How many were vacationers? After all, there are very few and by the comments most locals knew the trains would be running late.

I've visited NYC several times. I sure as hell don't know about buttons to press, or third rails, etc.

I can only assume by that big yellow line that your probably not supposed to step further than that point while waiting for a train.

I just wonder how many people would have passed this same guy had they seen him on the street begging for change to buy a decent meal.

Funny how a "smelly old bum" becomes important once his death is witnessed.

RIP, buddy. Surely you are in a better place now than the hell you experienced in your final years on this earth.

I love how so many of you are bitching about no one turning a switch off.......even if any of these people knew there was a switch AND where it was, I'd like to see what you'd REALLY do in that situation. I'm guessing they didn't know......Would I attempt to pull a drunk man up, knowing I could possibly end up falling into the tracks myself, and risk my 3 young kids not having a mother? Nope, I wouldn't, sorry. That's honesty, 100% honesty.
