The mother of a 15-year-old boy who died riding atop a New York subway car is suing the city’s transit agency and social media companies that promoted the viral and dangerous “Subway Surfing Challenge” videos she says inspired her son to try climbing onto a moving subway car.

Zackery Nazario opened an unlocked train door and walked between moving cars before climbing to the roof of a Brooklyn-bound J train on Feb. 20, 2023. A beam struck him in the head on the Williamsburg Bridge while the train crossed the East River. He fell between cars onto the tracks, was run over by another train, and died.
