This is a kid who was going to graduate in the next few days. I wish these kids would stop and learn a lesson from all the other teens who died… It is incredibly tragic especially for his family…. I pray for them this is horrible.

2 young boys were on top of the L train and while it was going underground, got knocked off

@barbie124 if a persons brain cant contemplate the dangers then the ultimate penalty occurs. They literally caused their own deaths.
