Man jumps onto subway tracks to get his iPhone

We recently got word that Bijan Rezvani, on vacation in New York, dropped his iPhone on the subway tracks and then, in an act some would call suicidal and others illegal, jumped down to save it.

Rezvani's dangerous leap down to the subway tracks was more dangerous than attempting to run across a three-lane highway since he had to deal with the threat of electrocution from the third rail, a bite from subway rodents and the possibility of getting crushed to death by an oncoming train. Oh, and he had a ledge to climb back up.

There's a reason why entering the tracks is illegal. New York's Metropolitan Transit Authority told us that passengers who drop a device should ask an attendant for help, rather than risking death like Rezvani.
