These subway surfers caught a rainy wave.
A pair of boneheaded subway surfers rode atop a 7 train in Queens amid a heavy weekend rainstorm, according to a viral video.
The video taken Saturday — days before the lashing Tuesday rains that caused flash flooding across the Big Apple — shows two dimwitted daredevils standing on the city-bound train as it apparently rolls past the Lowery Street-40th Street station in Sunnyside.
One yahoo whooped atop the train, jumping up and down. ViralHogOne yahoo even jumps up and down, the video shows.
“Nahhhh NYC kids are a different breed smh,” the original post is tagged.
