Edge 102 has remixed the audio of this video. You can listen here.
There's been a lot of online discussion about what corridor this happened on. I was told Richmond Hill. I have an email that says it happened on a train heading to Stouffville. Others say it was the Lakeshore West to Clarkson.
The person who posted the video on YouTube hasn't responded to my email. I don't think it really matters where it happened. It happened.
There are people who have watched the video who are in awe of what was recorded. I have to say, so am I. I've witnessed altercations on my own line but nothing of this magnitude. Some people have tossed out suggestions it was staged.
What I'd really like is to talk to the person she was screaming at. I'm only an email away... cj@thiscrazytrain.com
ORIGINAL POST
I hate it when I'm late to the party.
I'm not on top of my game these days due to personal matters. I'm sure you've noticed the infrequent posts. A few people contacted me this morning via social media and email about this incident that some of you have probably already heard about.
This clip was uploaded to YouTube and profiled on Dean Blundell from Edge 102's blog.
This "crazy" woman loses her sh*t at someone riding on a GO train with her on the Richmond Hill corridor, claiming she was kicked. This incident demonstrates how many of us GO Transit passengers just carry on with our business of doing the crossword or listening to tunes while the emergency alarm beeps comfortably, all the while confident that help is on the way.
Wow. That was a whole lotta special.
ReplyDeletePart of me thinks she might have been set up though. The reasoning was the camera was already on her before she started yelling. So unless this is something she does frequently, it almost seems fake.
Watch the other video uploaded by this YouTube user.
ReplyDeleteCould be. Could be not.
Wow. Way to stay classy, lady. I am so glad the LSE is pretty mundane. Unless you get screwed over by delayed and cancelled trains.
ReplyDelete0:52 - Let's have some law.
ReplyDeleteIf someone kicked me I'd probably lose my shit too.
ReplyDeleteI so wanted to see the CSA arrive to deal with the crazy lady. I don't know what kind of kick she suffered, but given the relatively weak initial reaction it didn't warrant the historonics that happened later on....I have to admit that I was amused when the fellow quietly acknowledged that he kicked her....and then he said something else...and then offered to kick her again.
ReplyDeleteDid you hear the song Dean Blundell created using Crazy Lady's voice this morning? it was pretty damn funny.
ReplyDeleteIt was a take on Psy's Gangham Style lol hilarious!
ReplyDeleteNo. If someone can find a link, I'd greatly appreciate it.

I was on that train and this is what happened. She was taking a lot of space with her legs forward past his feet. After several minutes the man politely asked the lady to retract her legs. She responded with an insult and did not move her feet back. When the man tried to move his feet she did not move and at that point he pushed her foot towards her. The lady went hysterical. Another lady asked the man to change seats to create peace which is why you see her take the seat after he leaves.
ReplyDeleteI really hate her. Lol.
ReplyDeletewhat a unless tit, its people like this that get you home late because transit safety has to show up. Were adults GROW UP!!!!!!!
