Play the odds and eventually they'll catch up to you. Play the odds drunk and something akin to this tragedy is more likely to happen.

New York daredevil Instagrammer Christopher Serrano dies trying to surf a subway car drunk | Daily Mail Online
A young daredevil photographer who amassed a following on his Instagram account thanks to captivating images that he took of New York City died tragically in a subway accident early Wednesday.

Christopher Serrano, 25, was trying to surf a subway car that was traveling on the F line bound for Brooklyn’s Coney Island.

According to police, Serrano, who was with a female friend, tried to climb on top of the train as it was moving just before 5a.m. on Wednesday, the New York Post reported.

As the train neared the Fourth Avenue/Ninth Street station in Park Slope, Serrano was struck by an object as he ventured between two subway cars and tried to climb onto the roof of the train.

Authorities would find Serrano’s body lying on the roadbed a short time later, the Post reported.

He was believed to have been drunk at the time of his death.

Serrano's jaw-dropping images on his Instagram account earned him a considerable following. He was not shy about snapping photographs from high above Manhattan while hanging over ledges, windows, rooftops, and fire escapes.

Sucks for him.

So anyway... how was everybody's week?
Better than his, happy to say.

Work is the same, but I'm enjoying the cooler weather.


As for the OP, Serrano did take some good shots before he ended as hamburger on the tracks.

He lived a life of adventure, and had experiences most of us only dream of.
