NYC girl, 12, killed while subway surfing was a thrillseeker who posted terrifying TikToks - including on train tracks

"The 12-year-old Brooklyn girl killed in a Brooklyn subway surfing incident had posted terrifying daredevil TikTok videos - including one where she lay on train tracks - in the weeks leading up to her tragic death, The Post has learned. The videos were revealed as young Zemfira Mukhtarov's mother said her pre-teen daughter was obsessed with pulling off the social media stunts despite her parents' pleading, and had snuck out in the middle of the night Saturday before she was killed."

"Rudenko, who moved to the US in 2008, said she tried to warn her out-of-control daughter that "it's dangerous, you don't have to do this," but ultimately couldn't stop her from pulling off dangerous stunts throughout the Big Apple. Last month, Zemfira posted a TikTok video as she lay on the tracks as a subway rumbled over her, while another clip showed a young girl on a narrow beam while a train zips by underneath her."

Zemfira Mukhtarov, a 12-year-old Brooklyn girl, posted daredevil TikTok videos showing dangerous stunts, including one where she lay on train tracks while a subway rumbled over her. Her mother, Nataliya Rudenko, said the pre-teen was obsessed with social media stunts and often snuck out despite parental pleas. Zemfira and a 13-year-old friend, Ebba Morina, were found unconscious near the Williamsburg station around 3:10 a.m. and later pronounced dead after riding on top of a J train near Marcy Avenue-Broadway station. Zemfira had increasingly sought thrills across the city, including climbing roofs and sneaking into empty mansions. She also played volleyball and took martial arts and violin lessons.
