Stressful Subway Montages

Gothamist Shows New Yorkers Just Missing the Subway in a Comical Video

'Gothamist' -- a city-centered daily web blog, created a video montage that shows hurried New Yorkers missing the subway.

The footage is paired with classical music that makes the content that much more hilarious. It's descriptively titled 'Watch NYers' Hearts Break As They JUST Miss The Subway Train' -- with the three-minute video compiling all the best moments captured.

Those shown missing the subway have a variety of emotion, with some getting angry, others looking mildly upset and more than a few who try to play it off like it just didn't happen. With this, the video shows the diversity of how unlucky commuters deal with the public transit system -- marking an experience that many New Yorkers are all too familiar with.
