Psycho of the Year already in? Maybe. Bijan Rezvani was on vacation in New York and while waiting for the subway train, he dropped his iPhone. Off it dropped onto the tracks below him. Now any sane person would have figured that was kissed off goodbye or the smart would have rushed to find official help. Rezvani? “Aaah, I’ll get it.” And off he jumped from the platform onto the tracks. Don’t worry about the fact that an oncoming train could have flattened him or the immense about of electricity from the third-rail could have prevented him from taking calls ever again. Rezvani didn’t even sweat the details of having to climb up the platform side once he retrieved his iPhone. But the acrobat he is, he just planted his hand on top of the ledge and swung his legs to the side and up he was in one swoosh. What a man.

When Laptop magazine asked him in an exclusive interview, “What were you thinking?” He simply responded, “I don’t know, is it a weird thing to have done?” Apparently, he didn’t want Steve finding out that his cracked phone was on the T-Mobile network and juiced with some Mike Tyson action via the NES emulator loaded on the 8 GB iPhone.

If you’re wondering, Rezvani did confirm that he would have jumped for an iPod but not his sister. (He doesn’t have one. :) )
