6:11 am
a natural waterfall like niagara falls and it covered up the usual like platter and all the sounds of the subway. so as soon as i stepped out and my train passed on, i turned around and there was just this enormous ball of water. so i crossed over to the platform and took, took a short video, which is watching the video. now these pictures are extraordinary. how have people been reacting when they've been seeing? seems like this? well, new yorkers are a famously tough, tough group of people. so as you can see in the video, i mean one person jumped directly through the waterfall to get home. you know, of course, many people where we're not so lucky. so it's been a terrible situation. but in this case, you know, there are always people taking a few videos and, you know, being a little bit nonchalant about it. but certainly there were,
