A teenager lost an arm while attempting to subway surf on a train inside a New York City subway station.
It happened around 10:30 a.m. at the Roosevelt Avenue/74th Street Station in Jackson Heights, Queens.
Police sources told FOX 5 NY's Linda Schmidt the teen was trying to climb on top of a subway car when he fell off. Then a northbound R train hit the teen and severed an arm.
The NYPD said the boy was rushed to Bellevue Hospital and underwent emergency surgery. He was listed in stable condition.

It’s called consequences.

Unfortunately, since he seems to have survived, he’s only an also-ran in the Darwin Award competition.
To: lowbridge
Everybody is jumping to conclusions that it was his fault. After all this is NY. If he was a “yout” it would have been a racist subway train that was at fault.

“I just lost my arm trying to surf on a subway train,” he announced, singlehandedly.
(And yes, kids, that is a “Tom Swifty” for those of you scoring at home).

NY is always looking for new ways to disarm its citizens.

Jokes aside, this youth was headed for a life of crime. Now his potential for thuggery is greatly reduced. Lives have been saved.
The arm he lost might have pushed someone onto the subway tracks a few years from now.

There’s stupid and then there’s STOOPID. I feel sorry for his mama raising such a special child.

I think he can afford one more attempt, but then his piano playing days are over.
