i lived in NYC for 6 years. Then and now, I have never once stood near the edge of the platform. I always stand with my back up against a post or the wall. I think it is nothing short of stupidity to stand casually on the platform with your back exposed to city strangers while you wait for a train, considering that this type of thing has been happening consistently for many many years

and i always take my headphones off so I can attempt to hear what is happening around me.
