"A 45-year-old architect was killed on the New York City subway Wednesday night while apparently trying to "surf" the train, according to local media reports.

Witnesses say Bronx resident Isabel Rios was riding the 6 train on an elevated track when he moved into the space between cars and climbed on top, DNAInfo New York said.

While "surfing" the train, his head struck an object, possibly a support beam."

Staying on the train is easy. The whole point of train surfing is being able to duck under that stuff.

Wow, surfing a SUBWAY train? I'm speechless with the stupidity of this.

A guy named "Isabel"? I wonder how long he'd been surfing. I'm guessing one doesn't just pick up train surfing in their mid 40s though.

I came across this story earlier. Before reading the article I pictured a teenager or 20-something in my head. Nope. Forty-five. The man was 45 and thought, hey, riding the top of a train seems like a good idea. This may be a potential Darwin Award nominee.
