Subway surfer dashes across NY train in shocking video as deadly trend continues
They’ll never learn.
Heart-pounding video footage captured a lone subway surfer dashing across the top of a J train in Brooklyn — the latest example of the dangerous transit trend plaguing the Big Apple.
The unidentified risk-taker runs atop six cars on elevated tracks near the Hewes Street station shortly before 2 p.m. on Monday, with the train at a standstill, the clip obtained by The Post shows.
The potentially lethal trend continues to be a concern for the NYPD and city officials following several deaths and serious injuries to youngsters looking for an ill-conceived adrenaline rush.
Last month, a 12-year-old boy was seriously hurt when he tumbled off a 7 train in Queens and onto the tracks — narrowly missing being hit by another train.
In January, a 16-year-old suffered serious leg injuries after falling off an F train in Queens, just days after another teen was hurt pulling the stunt on a 5 train at the East Gun Hill Road station in the Bronx.
All too often, the consequences are deadly.
In October, a teenage girl was killed and her friend was critically injured when they fell onto Queens subway tracks and were struck by an oncoming train — the sixth deadly subway surfing fatality last year.
