not likely, if he's legitimately mentally disturbed.

According to WNYC he was a street vendor near howards building. They caught him today back at work. If he's competent enough to earn a living then he's going away for a while

I have a Masters in Forensic Psychology. My training involves interviewing those who have been arrested and assessing whether or not their psych exam results or interview responses lead me to believe they are 'insane' or incompetent to stand trial. It's up to the court though to decide whether defendants are incompetent or not.

I simply could not go ahead and work in this capacity. I knew I could not bear having to deal with these kinds of disturbed people on a regular basis and be so close to such cases.

This case hits it home for me.. if he were found incompetent or insane, trust me, he may never see a trial and would instead be locked up in a mental facility instead of facing the kind of justice we (as primal beings) would want him to endure.

I bet he sold Howard that wig he's wearing.

There is no space under platforms. If you try to hide there the steel shoe that connects to the third rail will destroy you.

There is a channel between the tracks that is usually full of piss and oil. If you lie completely flat in that you can survive as the train goes over you.

The biggest fear is the third rail, touch that and your fried by 700volts.

Just to clarify your statement, it's 700v DC current. You've heard of the 50,000 volt electric fences. That's AC current. If you were to put 700 DC through that same fence, it would melt.

So I heard the dude was on the tracks for at least one minute.... prior to being hit by the train.

The photographer took 47 or 49 pictures of the event..... so he fucking lied about "signalling the train."

So most of you would have just stood and watched and not even tried to pull him up? I would have tried to yank him up and I would be ok with having died trying. It really makes me kinda sick that a bunch of people stood around, and some even stood around taking pictures and shooting video.

Granted, I haven't taken the train since (A) there were tokens and (B) they cost 65 cents, but from my recollection, the third rail is on the other side, not under the platform and there's plenty of room underneath.

...I can't imagine have the balls to even think about doing that. And just imagining a train passing over me is making me uneasy.

It wasn't by choice and I think I've told the story before, but that shit happened to me when I was 15. Fell off the outer steps of a train pulling into the Bern, Switzerland station and rolled right under the fucking train. About 8 cars passed over me before it stopped and I crawled out covered in orange dust but unscratched. Long story short: no locks on the doors...just a sign in multiple languages not to open it...curb is only 6 inches, not 6 feet higher than the tracks like NYC subways...my "thing" was riding the last few hundred yards on the steps outside the train like the conductors...lesson motherfuckin' learned. Right in front of my old man too...watched me disappear under the train.
