Too Close for Comfort

Really?  I mean REALLY?  With all the problems this year associated with track worker safety, does this really seem safe?  You tell me.Granted, this tape was shot in January 2007, but still.  I bet it still happens today.

Track workers squeeze into safety space to avoid approaching train.

OMG!!!!! One of the most shocking subway videos ever

Ok, you haaaaaaaave to watch this video. Stop whatever you are doing, and watch this clip. It is simply astonishing!!  This is the subway in Mumbai:

Is that not the craziest shit you’ve ever seen?!?!  What’s even scarier is that’s how our subways are going to be in the next 3 years.  And people will still keep riding.

How insane is it that they don’t even bother closing the doors?  You can see that some of them try to close, but the train just pulls away.  It’s even funnier that the train cars are organized by sex.  I was wondering why those guys were climbing on there like spider monkeys when the next train seemed much less crowded.

I wonder why the trains even stop?  If they’re going to ride like that, the trains should just slow down and let people bail off.  It would probably save some significant travel time.  Then, new riders can dive to get on the train.

WOW…I’m gonna go watch it again.

Miss Teen USA Mapped Out

(I promise, we’ll relate this to the subway. Stand clear of the closing doors, we’re on the way.)Ok so did you see the complete train wreck that was Miss South Carolina’s answer during the Miss Teen USA pageant? If not, here it is. I warn you, this is so embarrassing, it will make you a little nauseous. I saw it a week ago when someone at work sent me the link. I had to watch it a few times, because I could not sit through the whole thing the first time.

Was I right or what? Yeah, I know…you’re gonna pass that one around the office.

Anyway, I stumbled across this site where someone took her answer and made it into a subway map. Granted, this looks a little more like a Tube map, but hey, it’s still subway to me.

Miss Teen USA

So as promised, we’ve now connected Miss Teen USA to the Subway. That’s nothing short of magic.
