Non-notable urban legend about a man who whizzed on the third rail. Of the 5 sources listed in the article, he's only named in 2, and the second references the first (Straight Dope). Wikipedia isn't Snopes, and this article has little chance of being anything more than a short stub about a fake man who didn't electricute himself. Jayron  32  01:42, 24 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete - As per nom; the man is non-notable and the article is very unlikely to be improved beyond its current stage-- Groovy Sandwich  03:19, 24 June 2011 (UTC)
 * Delete I am a Mythbusters fan, and perhaps the topic of the risks of urinating on an electrified 3rd rail could be dealt with encyclopedically. However, not by an article about an imaginary person and an imaginary incident. Cullen328 (talk) 04:35, 24 June 2011 (UTC)
