Watch: Kid Leaps In Front Of Moving Subway To Save Skateboard

BROOKLYN, NEW YORK — Video has surfaced of a skateboarding braintrust who jumped in front of a moving L train to retrieve the board he just fell from.

Instagram user fionzion posted the short video Monday of a skateboarder attempting a trick, failing, then chasing his board onto the tracks of what appears to be a Bushwick L train station.

“Yo!” Laughs the person shooting the video, as his friend hops up onto the platform, seconds before an L train comes speeding into the station.

It was not immediately clear whether or not fionzion was the videographer or the stuntman, but he did profess a zeal for the art of skateboarding.

“I’m not the sharpest tool in the shed,” wrote fionzion in the caption. “I’m a passionate motherf---er tho.”

The video has been viewed by more than 100,000 people on Instagram and the gaming site gfycat, where the video was shared.

Some of fionzion’s followers applauded the quick skateboard rescue, others had a different reaction.

“Wow ur mad dumb,” wrote gideonlegros.

“Dude if the train doesn’t kill you next time I will,” added therealofficialfrankb. “Wtf.”
