Watch the video

I can’t stand most subway entertainers, but I love the bBoy crews, backflipping cash right out of your wallet.

    wow…i only knew of musicians and those guys who hold still for a long time…this deserves all the cash they can get!

    Those guys are much better than most subway dancers I know. Maybe it is the human wheel that got me. Slalom, NY-style- how cool is that!
    I have to say, that subway looks remarkably clean.

    In Chicago we have people coming onto the train disturbing passengers in about that fashion. It’s rare that they start rapping or performing stunts. Usually they’re just begging, fundraising, or peddling. It’s irritating and at least they’re doing something different in NYC.

    Nice moves. And to do that in a moving vehicle too. That must make it way harder. Those guys were good.

    I’m amazed there was that much room on the train. They were awesome. So much better than people selling pirated CD’s or coloring books or playing an out of tune instrument.

    thanks for capturing that, jonny! i’ve tried describing to people how these guys do backflips and all this stuff with poles right there and people sitting there millimeters away from their flying feet but the video captures it so well! it can be pretty scary, but i’ve never seen one kick someone’s face off, luckily.

    I rode on the New York subway and I never got to see anything like this, what a jip … very cool video though

    I can’t believe only like 2 people clapped. That was cool. I thought the whole car would break out in applause. Then I remembered that it’s in NY, so I guess not.
