I was walking up as it happened and I'm late to work, but I'm not mad. I didn't know the situation at the moment, but I had a feeling they were dead when nypd pulled out the yellow tape. I was sad because regardless if for a foolish reason a life was loss. Their family will be on my mind. I hope more kids and teens learn from this. Don't die for views and likes...

As a parent, this is one of those nightmare scenarios you never want to happen. I feel sadden for the parents and the torment they will live the rest of their lives.

@EricDaKlown of course not. Many parents are clueless of what their kids are doing.
